Tremaine's 1861 Map Transcription, shows: Carscadden, Deborah - Lot 29, Conc., 9 in Clarke Twp Carscadden, James - Lots 16,17,20, Conc., 7 in Clarke Twp Carscadden, John - Lot 11, Conc., 7 in Clarke Twp Carscadden, Richard - Lot 15, Conc., 8 in Clarke Twp Carscadden, Richard - Lot 15, Conc., 7 in Clarke Twp Carscadden, Robert - Lot 18, Conc., 7 in Clarke Twp Carscadden, T - Lots 15,16, Conc., 7 in Clarke Twp If you obtain some of the deeds relating to the above parcels of land, they might well provide an abundance of information. Sometimes, Wills are on title too. I believe I already gave you the Carscadden Wills in the possession of the Ontario Archives. In the Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid, there are 55 members of the Carscadden families mentioned. Hope that this might assist you. Kind regards Kathy Witheridge Sarnia, Ontario, Canada
