Genealogy Research in our Maryland Room, Part 2
Land Records
My ancestors bought property in Caroline County in the early 1800s. Can you help me locate it? If this is your question, probably we can. Here are some useful print resources:
• Caroline County Maryland Land Records, abstracted by R. Bernice Leonard (975. 231 L (1774-1874) are indexed by the names of sellers, buyers and property tract names. An important disclaimer: property that was passed by wills and stayed in a family does not appear in the Land Records. Only property that was sold is included.
