document.
Dated March 28, 1867
Dr. Thomas Henderson Allison was a longtime resident of Armstrong County, PA,
most notably from the towns of Elderton and Kittanning.
He is selling what appears to be 133 acres in South Huntingdon Twp (Westmoreland County PA)
to brothers John + Hunter Richey of Pittsburgh, for a sizable sum at the time of , 325.
Other residents mentioned in this document are:

Also of importance is the mention of the "Longanecker Farm."
This document opens up to a size of 22 x 17.
A beautiful item to be framed. An added bonus are the fine original
revenue stamps still attached. The and stamps are collectible on their own!
The document has all the necessary signatures and of course the incredible legalese of the early 19th century.
I have taken several photographs of the document for your review.
Considering the age of this document, the condition is still OK and perfectly readable.
There is some separation at the folds, discoloration, and some wear at the borders.
Please handle with care. Best idea is to have this framed to limit handling and to preserve.
For your reference, I have included below, the obit/bio of Dr. Allison,
as well as some grave info, and the 1870 census from Armstrong County PA.
These items are not included with the sale of the document, but the buyer is welcome to
print them out.
