Kibler deed for Bechtler's first land purchase in North Carolina

Bechtler’s first purchase of land in North Carolina was made with Martin Kibler's assistance, since Bechtler was not yet a U.S. citizen. The deed was written on April 18, 1838 and recorded on April 24, 1838. However, it refers to a prior transaction on April 25, 1830, the date Kibler acquired the property on Bechtler’s behalf.
