Of the eighty-one transactions recorded, some fifty-six indentures detail sales by six of the Welsh Original Purchasers (who bought land directly from William Penn) to fifty-six Under Purchasers in six Welsh counties (pp. 29-159, 166-261, 264-276, 288-310), the majority being lands sold by John ap Thomas of Llaithgwm and Edward Jones of Bala, both in Merioneth (pp. 166-196, 212-239) and Richard Davies of Welshpool, Montgomeryshire (pp. 59-159, 165, 239-261, 264-270, 294-301, 305-311). Rowland Ellis, Brynmawr, is the grantee of a deed of 30-31 July 1682 (pp. 294-301). Three other miscellaneous documents are also transcribed (pp. 165-166, 261-262, 367), including a previously omitted assignment added to the end of the volume in January 1693/4 (p. 367). The remaining twenty-two transactions involve non-Welsh purchasers from Wiltshire, Herefordshire and elsewhere in England and a few in Pennsylvania (pp. 5-18, 159-164, 262-264, 276-288, 311-367). A single record refers to an original sale of 250 acres by William Penn in September 1681 (pp. 333-337). The majority of the transactions were deeds of lease and release with receipt, although the lease portion (occasionally) and the receipt (often) may be absent. There are miscellaneous underlinings and marginal annotations in pencil, [?1921] (see arithmetical calculation on p. 159), throughout the volume.
