Scope and Content: Under successive authorizations, the Land Office oversaw the management and sale of public lands in Maine for the Commonwealth during the first half of the 19th century.  Among the powers held by the Land Office was that of conveying land by deed to individuals.  This series consists of a copy book containing transcripts of deeds relating to land transfers in Maine territory previously in dispute between Great Britain and the United States.  Each page consists of a deed copy that identifies the parties to the conveyance, the physical bounds, and conditions.  Deed copies were endorsed by the land agents of both Massachusetts (George Coffin) and Maine (Levi Bradley).
