RJ, Bill Graver is an expert in the maps and land deeds for Hamilton County, which extended beyond its current boundaries early on. He published Index to Selected Hamilton County, Ohio, Recorder's Books, 1801-1820, but some entries go back as far as 1788 in that index. Unfortunately I just sold my last copy and will have to reprint, and my original records are in storage or I would look up for you, but the Recorder's Office should have a copy. Bill volunteers (or did) at the Cincinnati Historical Society library/archives and was making appts to help people one on one. I don't know if he is still doing that. You may check with your local library to see if they have a copy. The index is a real time saver.
