Transcription of The Western Shore Gazetteer and Commercial Directory, For the State of California…, Yolo County, Compiled and published annually by C. P. Sprague & H. W. Atwell, Woodland, Yolo County, 1870. Transcribed by Peggy B. Perazzo Sales of Land The following table shows the principal sales of farming and gardening lands in Yolo County since the 1st of January, 1869, as shown by the county records up to August 1st, 1870. The names of the grantors are alphabetically arranged. There have been many other transfers of real estate, but the lands conveyed thereby have been in some instances swamp and overflowed, in others mountain lands, and in others transfers of possessory rights, without title, so that it is believed the table shows a fair estimate of the transfers of the farming lands within the time specified: Headings for information below: Grantor – Grantee – No. of Acres – Price Paid ASHCROFT, J.
