Book Description
Part I: Public land survey system: The maps in this part describe the survey system that was used to map Indiana and Monroe County in the early 19th century and is still in force today. Several historic maps appear along with current online mapping applications to help the reader understand and use the Public Land Survey System (PLSS). Part II: Indiana maps: The maps in this part include early state maps, railroad maps, geological maps, and early 20th century motoring maps. Because there are so many surviving historic maps of Indiana this part must be very selective. It is merely a sampling of state maps that have useful portrayals of Monroe County. The entries appear in chronological order. Part III: Monroe County maps: This part seeks to be as comprehensive as possible. It includes nearly every pre-1942 Monroe County map that I know about. Most, but not all, of these maps are accessible online. Those that are not online are held in paper form by the Monroe County History Center, the Monroe County Public Library, the Indiana State Library, Indiana University-Bloomington libraries, the IUPUI library, and other libraries and government archives. The entries appear in chronological order. Part IV: City and town maps: This part consists mainly of maps of Bloomington, plus a few maps of other places. These come in several forms, including plat maps, street maps, stone industry maps, topographic maps, railroad property maps, insets in county maps, and fire insurance maps. The entries appear in chronological order. Part V: Indiana University campus maps: Most maps of Indiana University were made for students, but some are planning maps, fire insurance maps, parts of city maps, or historical reconstructions. Some were published separately; some were included in university publications. Most maps in this part of the bibliography are available at the IU Office of University Archives and Records Management, in paper form and often online. The entries appear in chronological order.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
344 pages with 119 total maps Locating original landowners in maps has never been an easy task-until now. This volume in the Family Maps series contains newly created maps of original landowners (patent maps) in what is now Monroe County, Mississippi, gleaned from the indexes of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. But it offers much more than that. For each township in the county, there are two additional maps accompanying the patent map: a road map and a map showing waterways, railroads, and both modern and many historical city-centers and cemeteries. Included are indexes to help you locate what you are looking for, whether you know a person's name, a last name, a place-name, or a cemetery. The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the early 1900s. What's Mapped in this book (that you'll not likely find elsewhere) . . . 3727 Parcels of Land (with original landowner names and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map) 88 Cemeteries plus . . . Roads, and existing Rivers, Creeks, Streams, Railroads, and Small-towns (including some historical), etc. What YEARS are these maps for? Here are the counts for parcels of land mapped, by the decade in which the corresponding land patents were issued: DecadeParcel-count 1820s346 1830s244 1840s2104 1850s905 1860s46 1870s3 1880s3 1890s9 1900s5 1910s43 1920s14 What Cities and Towns are in Monroe County, Mississippi (and in this book)?
