William John Mabe is listed as the seller in three separate land transactions
between 1763 and 1771. These transactions totaled 172 acres of the original
204 acres land grant belonging to his father (William M. Mabe). In the last
transaction the acreage included the plantation home, and this land may have
belonged to Charles M. Mabe, because it also required his signature.
