Legal Term - "Contra"

While looking through the courthouse records, the other day @ our Chapter's office, our Chapter President Flora asked to have this term searched.
So here is the term for those who may not know what this could mean if you found this in any documents while searching your family trees.

A "contra" is a deal that allows for the exchange of services, goods, or publicity without money changing hands.

Have a happy day and come back to visit our blog as we post other interesting findings,while working with the Jefferson Courthouse records from days past.

Welcome to the 2 new followers of this blog! I am both surprised and grateful, because this blog is only 3 days young!
