These abstracts contain the names of all persons, relationships and tract names mentioned in the records. Buyers and sellers from adjoining counties are given. The land records from this time period also include transactions involving property other than real estate and other documents such as powers of attorney, depositions, and cattle marks. An appendix, "Ownership of land in the upper part of Charles County and Calvert County in the 1600s which became Prince George's County in 1696," lists: full name of owner, name of plantation, and date of patent or resale. Two indices complete this volume: an index to "Plantations, Streams, Ships, Towns, Counties, States, and Miscellany;" and an index to full names.
