Description: In-Depth Description: This document is an original indenture dated September 30, 1904, between Joe Ricards of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Charles W. Jones of Greenwood, Sussex County, Delaware. The indenture represents a legal agreement involving the sale and transfer of land from Ricards to Jones. The document is a detailed and formal contract that outlines the conditions of the sale, the payment made, and the legal responsibilities of both parties. The text is elegantly scripted, typical of legal documents of the early 20th century, and is printed with clear lines, underlined by bold, gothic-style headers.Historical Significance: Indentures from the early 1900s hold historical significance as they reflect the legal and social frameworks governing land transactions at the time. This particular document sheds light on the connection between an individual in a major urban center (Philadelphia) and a buyer in a more rural area (Greenwood, Delaware). This transaction likely reflects the broader economic movements of the time, where urban residents might have invested in or divested from rural properties. Additionally, this document is valuable for tracing property ownership and understanding land use patterns in Sussex County during this period.Rarity: While land indentures from this period are not extremely rare, those that are well-preserved, clearly legible, and connected to transactions between different states or regions hold particular interest for collectors and historians. The connection between Pennsylvania and Delaware in this document adds to its uniqueness and value, particularly for those interested in regional history or genealogy.
