ROBERT BROOKE (C.1751-1800) SIGNED 1795 ROCKINGHAM CO., VIRGINIA LAND GRANT DOCUMENT, printed and manuscript on vellum, granting 81 acres of land in Rockingham Co., Virginia to Nicholas Tussinger, dated December 1, 1783. Signed by Governor Robert Brooke and dated May 21, 1795, with pressed paper seal in lower left corner. 14 1/2" x 12 1/8".
Catalogue Note: Robert Brooke was the 10th Governor of Virginia (1794-1796).
Paper is in good condition with three horizontal folds and one vertical centerfold. There is damage and loss to both side edges, some of it affecting the land description. There is staining throughout the piece with noticeable edges of the stain in the top upper right and left corners, and the bottom. Discoloration with age, dirt, grime, and handling, particularly around the folds and on the papered seal. The backside with the address has similar discoloration and a line of small stains, which can be seen on the front. The ink on both sides is faded, but the signature and most of the land grant description are legible.
From the Richard and Catherine Hubbard collection, Cape Charles/Williamsburg, VA.
