Persons or organizations desiring to use this material for non-commercial purposes, MUST obtain the written consent of the contributor Eliza Funk ebethgen@yahoo.com and the DeKalb County Clerk's Office in Auburn, Indiana, 46706.

These records were copied by permission of the DeKalb County Clerk's Office and are records from the Pre-1913 Court House Fire. We have tried to copy the names correctly; but with many different individuals writing the records and the handwriting difficult to read, we may have misread some names. Mainly, they will assist the researcher in knowing that the relative lived here in the time period mentioned. In most cases the records are extracts and not verbatim; but the Clerk's office will not have further information than that which is sited. Where Real Estate or Mortgages are mentioned in the Writ of Execution, the Recorder's Office should have copies of the Records. In cases of Sheriff' Sales, the researcher will need to quote the Sheriff's name when requesting copies of transactions from the Recorder's Office.

Copies of the Executions are found in the County Clerk's Office. Costs of copies is $1.00 per page. If requesting copies, quote source of the information and number, date and name and specify Executions.
