Jackson County Deeds




Sample Map

Cheryl Haas, a JCGL volunteer, has made digital images of deed indexes at the Jackson County Courthouse for the years 1853 - 1899. Our volunteers have transcribed these indexes for inclusion on our web site. The indexes are alphabetized both by the grantor's last name (left side of table) and by the grantee's last name (right side of table). Occasionally one listing includes different information than the other listing, such as spelling or the spouse's name, so both indexes should be checked.

The term grantor refers to the individual(s) giving over the property and the term grantee refers to the individual(s) receiving the property. The Latin phrase et ux means and wife and the Latin phrase et al. means and others. If the year is followed by a number in parentheses, it is the number of deeds transferred between those two parties in that same year.

If you find a name of interest to you and would like a copy of the actual courthouse deed containing the reference, the cost is $15 plus $5 for each additional deed (up to 5) requested at the same time. There is a link to the postal request form at the top of each index as well as an online request form. Follow this link, Sample Deed, to see the deed of George Briggs.

A separate office at the County Courthouse offers maps showing the exact location of the property referenced in a deed. If you would also like a copy of the map, there is an additional cost of $15 to cover our expenses in traveling to the courthouse. As for deeds, additional maps requested at the same time can be obtained for the reduced cost of $5 each. The map above is that for the sample deed.

In the table below, follow the link for the initial letter of an individual's surname to see the index for that letter.
