This listing is for a small collection of original handwritten Mississippi legal documents dating from the late 1800s.
The group includes court filings, affidavits, judgments, land deeds, and trust-related paperwork, all written in period ink on original paper. These documents reference Coahoma County and surrounding areas, with visible names of judges, clerks, attorneys, prosecutors, and private citizens.
Subjects covered include:
• Criminal charges and sentencing
• Affidavits and sworn testimony
• Land ownership, trust deeds, and property boundaries
• Court-ordered fines and legal judgments
All documents show authentic age — folds, ink variations, edge wear, spotting, and toning consistent with 19th-century paper. Handwriting styles vary across documents, adding to their research and display value.
These are original historical documents, not copies. Ideal for collectors of Americana, legal history, Mississippi history, genealogy, ephemera, or manuscript material.
