Description

Dated August 30, 1917, this bill of sale for the amount of $1.00 covered the personal property and possessions conveyed to Sylvia Weinberg (later Farny) by Gustav and Eda Stickley. The sale of the property had already been memorialized in a contract of sale dated August 14, 1917, but this document is crucial to our understanding of the property as it contains an inventory of items included in the sale (Schedule A), a list of items belonging to Mildred Stickley and her husband, George H. Cruess, as well as a list of farm implements.
