- This document is a land grant with a survey map and authorization papers for the plot (1 and 7/10 acres) located in Baldwin County, Georgia, dated February 1, 1806. The map indicates that the plot of land is near the Little River (Georgia), and is bounded to the West by the Indian boundary. The grant is made under the authorization of an 1805 act of the Georgia General Assembly for the disposal of lands in Baldwin, Wayne, and Wilkinson Counties and is signed by Governor of Georgia, John Milledge (1802-1806). It is unclear to whom the land was granted.
