Guilford County was formed in 1771 from Orange and Rowan Counties. Many of its early settlers were Scotch-Irish, German Exiles, English Quakers, and even some Welsh. Deeds are one of favorite research tools of the genealogists due to the wide variety of family connections found within them. Not only will the reader find the deed transaction itself, but often times such things as: marriages, relinquishments of dower, divisions of family farms among heirs, remarriages of widows are just a few of the matters you can anticipate finding within records of deeds.
