Mortgages

The records below focus on deeds involving persons associated with the Cobb family of Eddyville. I have endeavored to find all mortgages involving them from the establishment of Livingston County on 21 May 1799 until Eddyville and surrounds became part of newly formed Caldwell Co. 1 May 1809, but a few may have been missed

All parties were shown as "of" Eddyville and/or Livingston Co. unless stated otherwise below.

Notes:

I have copies of each of the pages extracted above. Please contact me for clarification or copies, using the link below.
The original records are handwritten, in some cases faded, and some films of poor quality. Errors no doubt were made.
In the property descriptions, I have include acreage where shown, water course, and adjacent property owners. I have not included the full "meets and bounds," which exists in many of the mortgages involving land.
I have attempted to use a consistent format for the information, which does not exist in the original.
