Ron Allen was the chronicle of rare Tennessee books and ephemera. This book is a must have for the serious Tennessee book collector.  This one I consider to be his most complete and also has a price guide, although that probably could not be considered accurate.  This is a large format book which was published privately by the author in 2003, Knoxville Tennessee.   There are some pencil notations made by me throughout the book. Due to the weight it will be sent by media mail and excessive postage paid will be refunded. Note:  The book is larger than the scan.

Document on rag paper transferring the land known as Barrows Grove. The first document is dated and was sold by Thomas Billsnyder ? Barrow's Grove was a large tract of about hundred acres of land lying South of Broad Street, extending to the cemetery.
