The third series of the SNP Records collection consists of two deed books, which detail the tract numbers and claimants, as well as individual plot owners. The two deed books within this collection almost entirely refer to land located within Rockingham County, but other counties within the park’s scope followed a similar process to acquire the land. The Deed Books in this collection contain the Muniments of Title which is the evidence presented to the court by the State of Virginia on the ownership of the real estate being considered for condemnation. This collection includes surveyor descriptions of each tract of land being condemned, lists of ownership, and surveyor plats.
