Complaints (Circuit Court)

Complaints and Partitions (Circuit Court)

OUR APPOLOGIZES FOR NAMES THAT MAY BE MISSPELLED (OLD HANDWRITING DIFFICULT TO DECIPER)

These are mostly suits over land or titles to land in the DeKalb County Circuit Court; they are pre-1913 fire and were evidently copied from the original documents, which were partially burned. We have sought to copy most of the genealogical information to assist you in your research; therefore they are excerpts taken from documents and do not contain all the information found in the documents.. Copies can be obtained by contacting the Clerk’s Office, DeKalb County Court House, Main Street, Auburn, In. 46706. Cost: $1.00 per sheet. This information is on microfilm and when ordering copies be sure to mention book and page number and reference information from DeKalb Web Page.

Where there are Quiet Titles, the Defendants were one-time landowners and the complaint is generally to clear the title to the land. When it is a Partition, it is usually to settle an estate and sell the land. All records pertaining to land and mortgages will be found in the Recorder’s Office, DeKalb County Court House, Main Street, Auburn, IN. 46706. Cost is $1.00 per sheet.

A note to remember, When a guardian is appointed "ad litem" for minors, the minor could be anyone under 21 years of age. Sometimes these minors were married individuals. Also, during the "hard times" people left their land and moved to other areas without the titles being cleared. It does tell us that the individuals were once residents of DeKalb County.
