Section VI - Massey Data Bank One Maryland Massey Family by George Langford, Jr. 1901-1996
©Cullen G. Langford and George Langford, III, 2010


Land Records, Patents, Wills, etc.

The Maryland State Archives kept an online record of all their photoduplication orders !

George Langford, Jr. ordered these documents too late in his lifetime to have succeeded in reading very much of any of them.  The ones that he did read are recorded in nearly illegible handwriting but are linked nevertheless.  Speech-to-text software is now available (I'm using Dragon Naturally Speaking) that lets me hold the document in front of my nose while I decipher the legalese without having to memorize a few words at a time, type them in, and then find my place in the document again afterwards.  I have listed all the documents that GL,Jr. might have ordered (87 0033, 87 0311, 87 0358, 87 0419, 87 00954 & 87 1510) even though I have not yet found for every one where in the Massey Data Bank they may have been listed as original sources.  They are listed in no particular sequence, save groupings with the same photoduplication order number.
