Record of proceedings of commissioners appointed by the court to perpetuate or restore land boundaries, to divide or sell inherited land, to lay out private roads, to alter public roads, or to lay out drainage ditches. Land boundary documents usually consist of petitions, court orders, oaths of commissioners, depositions, commission reports, and some surveys and plats. Estate proceedings contain petitions, court orders, oaths of commissioners, commission reports, and some surveys and plats. Road and drainage records consist of mostly petitions, with some court orders, oaths of commissioners, and commission reports, but few surveys and plats. Later records are included in (Proceedings) in series CM1112 and CM1093, with the plats separately referenced in (Plats from Proceedings) in series C2215 and C2216. The court clerk used the record books for recording other documents not related to land. All three volumes contain coroners' inquests and applications for and issuances of licenses to sell liquor, keep taverns, and operate ferries. Insolvency proceedings for 1812-1816 are recorded in the third volume. Other items appearing intermittently include certificates of qualifications as coroner and sheriff, peddler's license, certificates of naturalization, rates for ferries and taverns, bonds of wreckmasters, admissions to practice law, and petition for discharge from an apprenticeship contract. Also available on film in series CM836. Access available in electronic form derived from (Plat References, WO, Index) in series S1572, supplemented by the records themselves.
