MISCELLANEOUS.
Look to Your Titles |


TT may not be generally known that the title To
i a large portion Ct the Real Estate in Wood
County Is defectite-bnt such is the fact These
defects arise from misdescription of the prop
erty, informal execution and aeku0wledg dgment
of con eeyances; unrecorded deeds, tax sales and
titles, Judgment liens, Irregularities in sales under
execution, mortgages, &c.
Hundreds Of mortgages and other membranes
upon lands remain uncancelled on the records,
although the debts they were gven to secrfe, have
probably been paid. Thousands Of tax sales have
been made, incumberng lands and lots, many of
which have been redeemed but not cancelled, but
large number still exist as valid liens on the prop
cfty sold. oter 500 of the deeds on our county
records are either erroneously executed, or
wrongly recorded-most Of the errors undoubtedly
occur in the making of the deeds, but many in the
recording Of them.
In view of these facts, we are preparing, and
have nearly completed, at great expense and inn
mense labor, a complete abstract of the title to
every tract Of land and town lot in the county,
giving the original entries and purchases from tie
State and United States, date Of the deeds, kind
OF conveyance, consideration, full description of
the land, where deed executed, date of record,
book and page where recorded, number Of wit
nesses, number of seals, amount Of revenue stamp,
sc.
So complete will these Abstracts be, that If
every book in the Recorders Office were DESTROYED,
an accurate description of every instrument re.
COTueu tnefe, cOulu De procured IRON our ONCE.
With these facilities we are prepared on the
shortest notice, to give all necessary information
and written abstracts OF tte at reasonable prices
10 all who may desire the same.
With these Abstracts before US, we also have
facilities for preparing cOnveyances of every de-
scription unequalled by any other Office in the
county, aud which will be made out by us atusual
rates. We will give special attention to remedying
defects in titles, removing membranes, procuring
lost,deeds, getting original patent or copies of
same, and perfectiug titles generally.
Every owner Of Real Estate should know the
full history of his title to same and that it is cor
rectly placed on the record and every prudent
man will refuse to buy any lands or lots withGnt
first being fully satisfied that the title to same is
perfect, clear and unimcumbered and these facts
can be ascertained from us at a small expense.
Our charges will be as follows:
For an examination of the title to a lot or tract
of land, with verbal opinion on same, from S to
So, according to value AMI number of Transfers.
For full abstract of the title. with written
opinion same, 81 and over, according to number
Cf conveyanoes of the land, and labor in making
out same.
A reasonable deduction will be made to appi-
cants, for chain Of title to two or more tracts and
also to attorneys and agents who make frequent
business calls upon us.
