• Early Settlers of Indiana's 'Gore', 1803-1820 - (Book - Amazon.com) : In 1803 a wedge of land was ceded to the Indiana Territory from Ohio and named Dearborn County. It became known as the 'Gore' and slices through the present-day counties of Dearborn, Franklin, Ohio, Randolph, Switzerland, Union and Wayne. Original Entry Tract Books as recopied by the Indiana government circa 1845 and county Deed Books are major sources of information for this book. Unfortunately, an 1826 Courthouse fire destroyed the earliest records of Dearborn County. A variety of documents in the Indiana State Archives were abstracted to fill that gap--letters, petitions and militia rolls. All material is carefully researched and resources identified. Also included are muster rolls of the War of 1812 that provide additional knowledge of the pioneers. -

• French and British Land Grants in the Post Vincennes (Indiana) District, 1750-1784 - (Book - Genealogical.com) : Clifford Neal Smith, an authority on federal land policy, extracted records of genealogical importance from the "State Papers" related to French and British land grants issued near Post Vincennes (Indiana) District between 1750 and 1784, and he published them. These otherwise extremely difficult to access records range from mere lists of inhabitants, to lists of claimants, to land surveys, and to rejected claims. At the very least, each record places an individual at Post Vincennes at a moment in time. In many cases, however, we also learn the name of a spouse or other relative and a description of a lot, usually stating its proximity to (the owners of) other lots. Researchers will discover nearly 3,000 French and British pioneers of the Indiana District named in this work. -
