Scope and Content Note

This is a carbon copy of a transcription from the original volume listing quit rents in New York State. The transcription was prepared in 1935 from the original in the County Court House in Fonda, Montgomery County Department of History and Archives.

The information in this volume includes: patentee's name; date of grant; number of acres; county in which situated; county in which now situated; and description of property in popular name. The Comptroller's Office either had this copy made or accepted the copy from the transcriber presumably because of the involvement of the Comptroller's Office in collecting quit rents.
