Tayloe, John, fl. 1817
Autograph document signed
Title: [Authorization for the transfer of property]
Lomax, Forrest, and Jordan sign as witnesses. Brent, Justice of the Peace for Washington, D.C., signs separately as a witness. In his absence, Tayloe authorizes Lomax, his attorney, to act as a trustee of the estate of the deceased Ralph Wormeley. As trustees, Tayloe and Lomax transfer a parcel of Wormeley's land to Samuel Layre, who bought the land in a private sale. Document is frayed along the edges, resulting in some text loss.
