Some Records from the Kosciusko County, Indiana, Original Tract Book

Kosciusko County
Original Tract Book

Range 5 Township 32
Harrison Twp (partial)and Wayne Twp (partial)

These records are presented because of the family letter from 1883 which stated that "Uncle Francis Walker had moved to Indiana when he was old. The letter stated "I don't know anything what has become of Uncle Francis children, I never saw him or any of them. when he was very old he moved from Ohio to Cosiosko [Kosciusko] Co. Ind. and died there. Brother George saw some of his sons or son passing by him homeward bound for or near Madison Indiana."

It is believed the Francis Walker who purchased land in the tracts listed below would be that same Francis Walker, the son of Elenor and Charles Walker of Ireland who moved to Pennsylvania. Any person who is a descendant of this Francis and who happens to see this page should contact me via the email links at the bottom of each page.

This is a partial transcript of the original land sales recorded within Kosciusko County, Indiana. Visit the Kosciusko County Land Pages for further information on deciphering the legal description of land within Kosciusko County.

Addendum

The following paragraphs were taken from a page about a man named John Drudge, who bought some land in 1843 from Francis Walker in Kosciusko County, Indiana. The original research was done by Gregory Lynn Shireman. It seems likely by this time Francis would have been in his 70s or 80s:

John Drudge of Ashland County, Ohio, eldest son of Benjamin Drudge, secured a map of Indiana issued by J.H. Young of Philadelphia, Pa., in 1834. Although the map shows all the important water routes, it does not indicate Fulton County, which was not set aside as a county until 1836 and at the time of the map was still in the possession of the Potawatomi Indians.

In 1841 John rode out from Ohio on horseback to look the country over. It took him eight days for a one-way trip. On October 26, 1843, he returned to the area and entered the east half, southeast quarter, section 26, township 31 east half, southeast quarter, section 26, township 31 (Newcastle), Range 4, totaling 80 acres more or less, for $125. The land was deeded to John Drudge from Francis Walker at LaPorte, Ind. The plot of land was originally patented from the United States Government by Erasmus Powell on June 30, 1837, at LaPorte. Powell sold the land to Walker, who in turn passed it on to John Drudge.
