James and Prudence Muir appear on a number of Ripley County land records. I am interested
in a particular property that they sold to John Webster in 1832. The land records
indicate that the property was originall owned by Silas Webster. The Muirs aquired it
around 1829 and then sold it to John Webster in 1832. I am attempting to determine if the
Muirs actually lived on the property, or merely leant money Silas Webster and acquired
legal title due to nonpayment of the loan. If you are interested in a copy of the deed,
please contact me.
