Text of Record
Deed from Joseph Philips, Jr. to Samuel Smith for £15, 50 acres on Joseph’s Branch of Yadkin River above Laurence Smith’s adjoining George Forbis Granville grant, now in possession of Samuel Smith. Wit: Tyre Glenn, Charles Allen. Surry Co Deed Book A, Pg 95.
Comments
(The Jr. after Joseph’s name probably indicates that his father was still alive in 1774. Forbush Creek is a tributary of the Yadkin River located in the southern part of Surry County that became Yadkin Co in 1851. I suspect Forbush Creek was named for George Forbis.)
