You can find some fairly good records in Carlisle but you would be further ahead to go to Adams County Historical Society in Gettysburg. They have many of the records for Cumberland there. They have early land records. If I knew this earlier, I could have saved myself a lot of brick walls. :Liz

Is the historical society at Gettysburg College?
