Deed Indexes By Name

These are the same index pages on the microfilm reels in the Recorder’s Office converted to PDF files which can be viewed by your Internet browser. At this time, only those for 1914 to 1922 and 1926 to 1988 are available but the other years we will add when converted.

Please note, all deed indexes for years 1914 through 1920, and partial deed indexes for years 1921 through 1922, were kept in the back of the individual deed books. These deed indexes did not include the deed book number or the date the deeds were recorded. The deed index pages provided for those years have been modified to include the deed book number. The recording dates of subject deeds for those years are assumed to be in chronological order, more or less. The year of recording was estimated by checking the recording date of the first and last deed contained in each deed book.

Deed Indexes from 1794 through 1903 are available online at the Hamilton County Genealogical Society website Deed Indexes page. Indexes for other types of Recorder’s Office documents are available online at the Hamilton County Genealogical Society website Databases Available page.

The indexes for the other years below list the seller (Grantor) and buyer (Grantee) of properties recorded in the deed books for the one full year. Each index lists the seller’s names only by the first letter of the last name, so all the pages must be read to find the name of interest.

However, the index pages have been processed by word recognition software and can be searched for the full name of interest using Adobe Acrobat reader. After you have clicked on the name first letter under the year and index desired, and the image pages appear, do the following.

Hold down the “Ctrl” key on your keyboard and then press the “F” key (Find, Ctrl+F). A search box will open where you can type in the name or part of the name you seek. Previous and Next Buttons appear allowing you to search backward and forward through the image. Once the name is found, it will be highlighted in blue. If this is not the person for whom you are looking, click on the Next button to go to the next name that matches what you entered into the search box. When there are no more matches, Adobe reader will inform you that all have been found.
