NOTE: Book C begins in 1814.  Deeds 1805-1813 seem to be totally
missing.  It is highly probable they were lost when the courthouse
burned.  Many wills perished in this fire.  Book A copied in 1856.

    peculiar to the reader.  But a future article about Clay County,
    Kentucky - a later home of the Ashe County family - will explain.
