Property acquisition/ownership This series comprises sub-series of papers involved in acquiring ownership or use of land or buildings through purchase, transfer, donation, lease or rental. Property acquisition should be listed as legal documents but due to the size and scope of the material it has been separated to promote easier accessibility. The geographic area of these records spans the whole of the north-east of Scotland and covers the entire existence of the College from the 15th century to the 19th century. 1398 - 1841
