Froogle | Glossary | 'Chain of Title'

the succession of conveyances [of title to property]; commencing with the patent from the government (or other original source) down to [and including] the conveyance to the present holder. The recorded chain of title consists only of the documents affecting title that have been recorded in a manner that makes their existence readily discoverable by a bona fide purchaser. Of the two systems for recording such documents.

• The TRACT INDEX records – in the same place – all instruments relating to a particular property; while

• the GRANTOR-GRANTEE INDEX indexes all such instruments under the names of the various grantors (or grantees) of the property.
