Property Owners - Abstract of Original Entries
Taylor Township

This page is a complete transcription of the records of original property ownership. These records indicate who bought land directly from the government when it was first made available to the public for purchase.

Note: In the original records, when a person bought several pieces of property at one time, the person entering it in the register used a big left curly brace in the left margin of the page to surround the number of pieces of properties purchased. In this case, if a blank cell exists in the name column the piece of property belongs to the first name prior to the empty cell.
