PENN, Thomas. Manuscript deed on vellum signed by Penn to James Logan for 200 acres in Lancaster County on the "West side of the Susquehanna."
Philadelphia: 26 March 1733. 1 p., large vellum membrane (320 x 710 mm). Signed on the fold at the foot by Penn. Docketed on the verso. Condition: lacking the seal with only a small remnant remaining on the attached ribbon. The document affirms Logan's title to a 200 acre plot on the west bank of the Susquehanna opposite fur trader Jonas Davenport's plantation on the east bank, believed to be near today's Bainbridge in Lancaster County. At the time, this region was extremely remote.
