Original grantee

E Davis

Republic of Texas or State of TexasPatent class history

E Davis's name on the Leon County index reflects the standard 19th-century Texas pattern: a certificate, headright, bounty, donation, or scrip, located against open land and patented once the GLO accepted the field notes. The GLO indexes it as Robertson Bounty file 000370. Subsequent surface deeds, mineral severances, and lease records in Leon County rest on this original patent.
