After the fire of 1871, in which the Cook County abstract records were destroyed, it was found that Chase Bros. & Company and two other abstract firms (Shortall & Hoard and Jones & Seller) had each lost part of their indices, but together had a complete set, with some duplicates. The three firms therefore merged, and still later consolidated with Chicago Title and Trust.
