Early Land Acquisition in Augusta County, VA

Jacob Trout, who was apparently eldest surviving son of Nicholas Trout, acquired his father's land in Augusta County after his death in 1753, although he was clearly not of age to conduct a transaction until 1770, when he sold the land to George Shaver in the following record:
