At one time I had Jessie attached as a son of Adam Mumma, b. 1794. This was pure speculation based on little evidence other than proximity, so he has been detached as an "unkown" family. We know that Adam Mumma, and his son Adam lived in this area. We believe that "Mummas Ford" was named after Adam Mumma Sr. Because of where he lived in MD, it is highly likely that he is a son of one John Jacob Mummas sons as the family lived in the "Old Monocacy", through which the Monocacy River flows.

How to read the Land Chronicles
Starting with the original land grants, each transfer is listed in chronological order. Each entry represents a deed, and includes the deed date, the seller and purchaser, the amount of land sold, and the selling price. [# indicate Pound Sterling]
Acreage is only listed if a portion of the land is sold [indicated by a - in front of the date], otherwise, the full property was sold. When a portion of a property is sold, clicking on the hyperlink will take you the farm that the block joined. Likewise, when land is joined to a new block [indicated by a + in front of the date], clicking on the link next to it will take you to the farm it was separated from.
In many cases, we're still working on working the deed back to the original owner, or up to the present owner, while listing those deeds may cause a bit of confusion, we've nevertheless decided to do it for those looking for a particular family name. In these cases, the deed are stand alone.
