Stanley Smith Deed Collection
The Stanley Smith Deed Collection comprises deeds for land, property, wharves, salt works, church pews, etc. The deeds were collected by Stanley Smith over the course of his life’s research into Cape Cod genealogy and history. This online database--a work in progress--has been created to allow researchers to examine the data from the deeds without having to handle the fragile documents or decipher the 17th-19th century handwriting.
