Equity Court Abstracts

These are abstracts from Equity Court Records of Frederick County, Maryland, many times providing family data on the defendant and sometimes on persons not mentioned on the docket. Some of the listings are quite informative while others, being dismissed, may only have the date and name of plantiff and defendant. However, the cases brought before the judge consisted of sworn testimony and each one holds a story. Perhaps you will find a story connected to your search.

the land; when asked to who, response was "That's a secret."

he had bought the farm and the property where his mother lived and asked 
when would I be moving.
When at the courthouse to appoint a trustee, his mother said she didn't 
want Joshua to be one of the trustees and SHELLMAN told her she should 
take him because he was her brother.  Francis' mother finally agreed provided 
that Joshua sell the farm that he held as her guardian; upon her signing, 
he then refused.

he would buy the mountain farm.  A few days later Joshua came over and told  
me he had sold the farm where I lived for $40/acre and they argued.
