When I started this project in 1999 I decided early that a
good resource to post on the site would be graphic representations of original
Land Patent holders. I spent months drawing my own map showing the Congressional
Townships and laid out maps for each county ... in my naiveté I had
no idea how much time would be required to make these entries, or how little
time I would be able to devote to this effort. I have only just begun to
scratch the surface posting Land Patents for Montgomery County with just
a few listings for Coal Creek Township and at present am not sure when I'll
be able to return to this effort. If you are interested is seeing my "vision"
for this feature you can visit the Marion County "Land Patent"
presentation. |
