Behymer Guardianship, 21 Sep 1849 (probated), M. 7-928+ I have written the Clermont County Clerk to see what it would take to order copies of the latter bunch of probate records. Their response was that the total number of pages was 188, some of which were light, making them difficult to copy. The copying and research fee was 50 cents per page or $94.00 plus postage for the lot. They would only be able to make the copies in between getting their normal work done, so it would take some time to finish them all. $100 is pretty steep for one individual, so I was wondering if others on this list might be interested and might be willing to contribute some money towards this effort. Of course, there is no guarantee of what we may find. However, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Any takers? John Charles Tippet JohnDoeTippet@csi.com P.S. I would consider mailing out copies of the stuff that I have already xeroxed, time permitting, if anyone is interested (and is willing to pay the expenses). P.P.S. I am just about finished slogging through all the land transactions for Clermont County from 1800 through 1879. I am currently at 1866 with approximately 10 hours invested and 13 more years to go! I will post the results to the list when I am done.
