Original 1899 Horry County, South Carolina real-estate deed documenting the transfer of approximately 100 acres of land from James H. Johnson to W. F. Mishoe. The deed records a consideration of $365 and contains an extensive handwritten description of the property boundaries, referencing neighboring landowners, roads, stake corners and an earlier tract conveyed by Meshack Johnson in 1870. Dated February 14, 1899, the document includes the signature or mark of James H. Johnson, witness signatures, notarial certification, a formal renunciation of dower by Mrs. J. H. Johnson and period county recording information on the reverse. The deed was prepared on a printed South Carolina legal form supplied by Walker, Evans & Cogswell Co., Law Stationers, Charleston, S.C. An interesting original document connected to Horry County land ownership, genealogy, rural property history and nineteenth-century South Carolina legal history. The document displays age-related toning, staining, foxing, fold lines, handwriting, minor edge wear and small separations along some folds. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description. Sold as one original historical document, exactly as shown.
