Here's two more transcriptions of land transfers involving my 5th-great-grandfather, Josiah Lambert in Warren County, Ohio. The first record was a transfer between Nathaniel and Nancy Moss and Josiah Lambert in 1821. The second was a transfer from Josiah and Lucy Lambert to one of their sons, Aaron Lambert in 1831. Both transfers involved the same 63 acre plot of land.
