Liber T, Page 400
Recorded at request of Philip Tannaly, 26 Aug 1735; 26 Aug 1735; Indenture between John Brouer and Philip Tannaly; for 2000# tobacco; part of a tract called Hunter's Kindness; containing 100 acres; /s/ John Brouer (mark); wit. Jno. Addison, Wm. Murdock; Ack. John Brouer and Mary his wife

The first date here is supposed to be the date the inventory was taken, the second date the day it was approved by the heirs and the court. I didn't use the first date as his "died before" date because that is an awfully long time between the two dates--the longest I've seen.
