From the Introduction: "This book indexes all the persons, places,
businesses, and institutions named in the earliest court records of
La Porte County, Indiana, including more than 800 distinct
surnames. The three handwritten books begin in 1833 - the 'minute
record' of court procedures and rulings; the 'complete record' of
cases that went to trial; and the 'judgment docket' of payments
made." "The legal proceedings recorded in the books and indexed
here describe fights, liquor sales, gambling parties, road
building, timber cutting, slander, divorce, death, murder, and -
above all - debt and the repayment of debt. Sometimes they state
relationships. More often, they offer hints based on who put up
money ('security' or 'bail') to guarantee someone else's
performance of a duty."
