Detailed Description
Scope and Content Note
These volumes contain typewritten transcripts of mortgages of real property to county commissioners appointed to loan monies of the state pursuant to acts of the Legislature passed in 1792 and 1837. The source of the monies loaned under the latter act was the United States Deposit Fund. Except for a few early mortgages in the first volume, the rest of the mortgages transcribed in these volumes related to loans from the U.S. Deposit Fund. The transcripts were examined and compared with the original documents for accuracy by the Second Deputy Secretary of State. The location of the original mortgages is unknown.
