Robert JOHNSON, of Green Township, Hamilton County
wrote his will 27 April 1827.

Info given to me says he died 2 Aug. 1827.
12 Oct 1827, lawyers were paid $200.
22 Nov 1827 the will was filed.
23 Nov l827 another $100.
This was signed by Dolly (Patterson) JOHNSON (his wife) and 2 other people.
A letter was filed 4 Jan 1828, a witness to is will.
Also a signature of Administrator, 12 Oct 1835.

I have a copy of the original hand written will. It was in the Archives
and Rare Books at the Carl Blegen Library 8th floor at the University of
Cincinnati. There was reference to it at the Cinn. Library (Wills Filed
with Probate court of Hamilton County, Ohio 1791-1901.

Do you think for 1827 there is a dated file of his death or any other
probate papers that might reference his burial location? I know that
death certificates do not go back that far. I'm trying to find where he
was buried. Any help with this would be gratefully appreciated!!!

Thanks!!! Sheila
