Rockbridge co. VA -
Benjamin Borden, Jr., sold 318 acres to James Greenlee. The property cornered on the lands of John Davidson, a certain Cahoon, and a McClure. It was not until March 17, 1757, that Archibald Alexander and Magdalen McDowell Bowyer, acting as executors of the Borden estate, gave the deed. The tract was sold to James Davis, who disposed of it to Abraham Rhodes. In 1805 Rhodes sold it to Dickey Beard. The Borden heirs had a suit over the tract with Greenlee, but Greenlee's title was confirmed. Noe Beard entered suit for a deed from Rhodes who had moved to Highland County, Ohio and won his case.
Another real estate tangle resulted from the sale of 230 acres by the executors of Borden to Robert McElrath. Moses Edmonson had made a settlement on the tract and was the first; this was a few years after the death of Benjamin Borden, Jr. Edmonson sold the place to a Matthew Moorehead who disposed of it to McElrath. A suit was entered to get the deed corrected and established. A witness in the case was John Stuart, who was now a man of sixty-five. His father, John
Stuart, had bought 313 acres from Borden, Jr. The deposition was taken at Brownsburg in July, 1805.
