Grant to Archibald Welch for 202 1/2 Acres Londs dated 7th Aug 1806 Georgia Secretary's Office Registered in Book 4th Wilkinson fo 256th 7th Aug 1806 Hor Marbury Secy Transcriber's note: the date on this is likely 1806 as that is the 31st year of independence and what was on the envelope from the Secretary of State's office.
