    Description

    Original 1795 Property Deed
    From [Former Loyalist]
    Fredrick Lewis
    To [Revolutionary War Veteran Capt.]
    Samuel Leavenworth Hurd
    Huntington, Connecticut
    [
    FEATURES AND DETAILS...
    ]
    According to online sources, "
    Huntington is an extinct town in Fairfield County, Connecticut
    established in 1789 from part of Stratford. Two daughter towns were created out of Huntington called Monroe, and Shelton. In 1919 Huntington was annexed to Shelton."
    My research suggests that
    Samuel Leavenworth Hurd
    was a captain in the American Revolutionary War, and that
    Fredrick Lewis
    was a Loyalist.
    [
    CONDITION...
    ]
    - No signs of abuse.  From a non-smoking environment.
    - Normal age fragility of the paper.  The document is in two pieces, and it is stained, as pictured.
    The above is my good-faith attempt to disclose all noteworthy issues. Keep in mind that vintage/antique items always show their age. (Don't we all!?)  It would be impossible to mention every tiny detail, so please expect that
    there will be something
    about this item (or lot) that's not perfect and may need touch-up.
    PLEASE SUPERSIZE ALL PHOTOS, AND ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING/BUYING.  I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER.

    U.S. purchasers, you can choose from various
    shipping options
    in this listing.  Shipping costs vary dramatically depending on your Zip code, so choose the one that best suits your needs.  I never inflate shipping to make hidden profits.  If you believe the shipping is too high,

    with your Zip code, and I'll be glad to double-check it for you!
    SHIPPING UPGRADES:
    At our discretion, we may upgrade your shipping to a

    please message me
    as soon as you complete your purchase.
    INTERNATIONAL
    SHIPPING:
    By default, international shipment is through eBay's Global Shipping Program, which means the shipping rate (cost) is determined by eBay -- outside my control.  BUT ...

    ,
    message me

    may
    be a cheaper alternative using Priority Post -- depending on the size and value of your parcel.
