California, Bidwell Township.
Filed for Record at the request of Bank of Ft. Bidwell Aug. 31 1916 at 5 min
past 9 o'clock A.M., and Recorded in Book 33 of Deeds, page 579 Modoc County
Records.
T. H. BALLARD Recorder (296)
A little more on the above deed and the one from Charles STREIG to Minnie
POLANDER:
These deeds were recorded after the death of Charles. He died on August 25,
1916 and these deeds were recorded after that date. Now, I personally could
not locate any will or probate for Charles STREIG in Modoc County. Strange,
wouldn't you say. Looks like he went for the distribution before death to avoid
all that taxes, etc., as he had previously deeded the "home lot" in Lake City
to his wife, Wilhelmina. Frederick would not be included in the
distribution, necessarily as he was a step-son.
Also, in the above deed, the property description has the names: Fred E.
BUSH, Mrs. E. M. PHILLIPS, and A. L. MONROE included in the description.
