Fantastic Example of a Jefferson and Madison Signed Land Grant
Partly printed DS, signed "Th: Jefferson" as president and "James Madison" as secretary of state, December 15, 1801. A grant for a 1000-acre parcel of land, issued to Jonathan Clark, "a Lieutenant Colonel for seven years," under the provisions of "An Act to enable the Officers and Soldiers of the Virginia Line on Continental Establishment...' " The reverse of the document bears a handwritten endorsement by Secretary of War H[enry] Dearborn, which reads, in part: "Jonathan Clark was originally entitled to the Bounty Land granted to him by the within patent....”. The man named in the document is most likely General Jonathan Clark, who served under Washington and participated in the Battles of Monmouth and Paulus Hook. Clark, who was captured along with General Benjamin Lincoln's forces in 1780, remained a prisoner until the spring of 1781.
