This document may have been the very first official document ever executed in the state of Nevada! If it wasn’t the first, it certainly was one of the first!
On the first day of statehood, November 1, 1864, this deed was executed. Stephen Haydon of Carson City was selling Charles Laird of Sonoma a right-of-way (or alley) from East to Fritch Street in Carson City in the area known as “Hayden’s Extension.”
