Knapdale: Estate Paperwork
http://www.knapdalepeople.com/knapestateintro.html
Every business requires paperwork, and the estates in Knapdale were no exception. Most of the information I have is from the Inverneill Papers (which are on microfilm); plus, I have done a lot of work on the 1694 Hearth Tax as well as an Inventory done by the Poltalloch Estate in 1798/1803. The latter 2 items are in pdf format. Knapdale Hearth Taxes, 1694. Inventory of Dwellings, Poltalloch, 1798 1803. Cosandrochaid Sett, 1803. Settlers in Early Ontario. Inverneill Farm Purchase, 1773.
