Part 276s – Smith Robertson Genealogy – Indenture Research – 1829 David & James Smith – Cont’d – 383 Saids

Afternoon,

Just how many times can a lawyer write the word “said” on one Record? In this case, I find 383. That’s a lot of “the said” and “the aforesaid” used over and over and over again.

(The "said" image is from Visuwords, an online graphical dictionary.)

My next Record appears to be a follow-up Document and Record to the one I presented in Part 275s. Within the copy there are the appearance of the same two Smiths – James and David. And in the realm of search and research of genealogy and the discovery of ancestral lines there appears to be three main family groups: Bells, Greens, and McNairns. The Record is a treasure hit of these family relations and places of location. But sorry to say there are no leads to my own Smith search to the origin and discovery of ancestral roots of my ggg-grandfather James Smith.

The images of the Records, pages 159 through and including 170, are from the Grenada Registers of Records 1825-1834 (v. H5-O5) and found on the microfilm FHL [1563380]. Here are the images of the 12 pages.

And, based on my transcription, it can be noted that this is a long Document.
