In several abstracts I have copies of it mentions A.B. At first I thought it meant
"Acreage Bounds" but now think it means "administrator bond,"etc.
Here's an example from Newberry County S. C. Estates Volume II Probate Estate Boxes
11-25. I don't have authors name as my husband was photocopying pages and writing
sources on each sheet as he went and that was before I let him know we needed author's
name also. I think the author was probably Glenda Wood Bundrick.
Can anyone tell me what A.B. is? Thanks.
Example:
1814 Thomas Smith Elizabeth Smith, Admin.
Joshua Davis, Admin.
A.B. 7 Feb 1814 $2400
-Eliz. Smith, Asa Pitts, Nathan Pitts.

Smith, now Eliz. Davis, be revoked, and other letters be
