I also have a copy from King George 3rd dated Apr. 17, 1764
for 100 acres to John George Durst. It is described as:
   In Berkley County
   On the Saludy River
   Below the mouth of Halfway Swamp

Witness---Thomas Boone--Capt.
Surveyor---Edgerton Seigh
Governor in Council---Pat? Simpson
              ---------------------------------------
At the top of the document is handwritten
                     BOUNTY LAND
I understand a little about the term, would someone like
to educate me in this.  Also on another document there
refers to 100 acres as a "MEMORIAL"
I have another ref Margaret DURST.

Still hunting ancestors of Peter DURST b. 1820 Edgefield
