Citation

Orange County Deed Book 11/112
See the deed book page at the Register of Deeds →
A page can hold several deeds, and a long deed can run onto the next page.

From

James Mears

To

Gavin Alves

Note

The parties follow UNCG’s People Not Property catalog. Chilton’s abstract gives this deed the parties of another deed on the same page; where that was checked on the deed images (Deed Book 2, page 16; 6/227; 15/411) the catalog was right.

People named
