CARSON AND RELATED FAMILIES IN THE
Butler County, Ohio Deed Book

CARSON Family in the Butler Co. OH Deeds

Introduction:
These are abstracts of the early deeds of Butler Co. OH in which CARSONs were Grantors or Grantees. Some CORSON/COURSON deeds are included; also some deeds from related families. It covers the years approximately 1803 through 1861. I have included a few other deeds in which I know that the grantor or grantee is related to the CARSON family, or where CARSONs are mentioned elsewhere in the deed.

Note 3. The original deeds are handwritten records, which can be difficult to read. If a deed is important to you, I recommend that you check the deed yourself. The Church of the Latter Day Saints (Mormons) has filmed the Butler Co. OH deeds through about 1876.
Their catalog is online at www.familysearch.org
