A-D 1786-1797 (Year - 1789) Henry Smith sold 150 acres to John Smith for 50 pounds sterling This deed is interesting in that it notes the history of the land, first being considered as Mecklingburg County, North Carolina, but then transferred to York County, South Carolina, and noted as obtained 5 April 1767. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-L9CR-7XB2?i=923&cat=297336 Conveyances, deeds and bills of sales, 1786-1950 Conveyances, etc., vol.

This land record indicates that some of the land (100 acres) once owned by Henry Smith was to be transferred to Adam Meek. The land tract was mentioned to have been granted to Henry Smith Sr. by Governor Tryon in the year 1765, and was commonly callled Smithe old place.
