Good Morning,

Following up with my announcement in Part 467s, and my search and research of the genealogy of ggg-grandfather James Smith here is the 2nd installment of six parts of the 1822 Richard Oliver Smith Indenture.

It is specific to the ownership of Revolution Hall Estate and the adjoining lands.

The images of Pages 186 through and including 191 are downloaded from the microfilm FHL [1563379].

The word wrapping is not as clean as I would like it. The scribe wrote small and appeared to have been cramped for writing space.  My transcription continues from Page 185 presented in Part 468s.
