Warrick County Land

Warrick County Mortgage Book 1, Pg. 262.

Last week while in Southern Indiana I was able to visit the Warrick County Recorder's Office and pull copies of land records for Allison's Freyling family ancestors. Her 3rd-great-grandparents Stephen Freyling and Katharina Wagner Freyling were married in neighboring Vanderburgh County, Indiana on 31 October 1852. Six months later they entered a mortgage (copy above) in Warrick County for the Northeast quarter of the Northeast quarter of Section 17 in Township 5 South of Range 9 West in Campbell Township. The mortgage was fully paid on 5 April 1859.

Stephen and Katharina bought a connecting plot of land on 20 May 1863 from William and Sarah Corwin, and then a larger plot of land on 9 May 1884 along the New Harmony and Millersburg Road. Stephen and Katharina sold twenty acres for $850 on 19 September 1889. After Stephen died on 28 June 1893, his children sold the remaining land for $2700 on 5 August 1898.
