Joshua Browning Land Grants

 Joshua Browning Land Grants

Joshua Browning may be the original owner of James Walton's Person County property. James Walton is the father of Reuben Walton. The first grant is from 1779 and is for 400 acres. The description is very simple configuration of the land. The second grant is from 1789 only about a year before James Walton bought land from Browning of 305 acres. The description is rather convoluted and may match better with the convoluted shape of the HD Foushee land in 1933, in other words not a perfect square of acreage.
