Winch Family - First Street home Purchase

I found this document and attachments in my father's, Myron E. Winch, papers in a green metal box in 2021. I had never looked in it before as I thought that it was my grandfather's last wife's artifacts. 

These documents start in 1947 when my father bought his mother's home. These documents read as:
