Plumley, Bovey Tracey: 17 Dec 1659 Release

[Comments:
I hope to put the transcripts of my collection of Plumley deeds on this blog.  This one from 1659 is the oldest of these deeds given to me by my great-aunt Frances "Marjorie" Harris in 1973.  I transcribed it on 6 Dec 1987, but just digitized and ran OCR on it this evening.  I still need to abstract it.  I will try to fix any transcription or OCR errors.
