John William Herman Jr. lived out his remaining years with his
wife Mary on land inherited from his father; land located
between Meckling's and Lyles Creek, situated in the Catawba
lands near Conover, North Carolina. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Typical of most large land owners when they became ill or
feeble, William Jr. two years before his death and only just a
few months before his wife died, transferred land he inherited
from his father to his first child, John Peter Herman. Also
William Jr. purchased more land from John Miller which he
transferred to John Peter Herman also. The transactions were
recorded in the Lincoln County Courthouse records as follows: |
