Book Description
382 pages with 86 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 Adams County, Illinois, gleaned from the indexes of the Illinois State Archives. 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) . . . 4732 Parcels of Land (with original landowner names and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map) 132 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 patent applications were made: DecadeParcel-count 1810s1889 1820s2 1830s2749 1840s261 1850s256 1860s2 1870s1 1880s1 1890s16 What Cities and Towns are in Adams County, Illinois (and in this book)?

Book Description
Johann Christoph Layrle (b.1710), possibly a son of Soloman Layrle, immigrated in 1736 from Germany to a German-speaking colony near Charleston, South Carolina. He taught a few years, then returned to Germany, and in 1754 immigrated again, this time (via Philadelphia) to Harpers Ferry, Virginia (later West Virginia). He married twice, moved to Culpeper County, Virginia, and in 1766 to Rowan County, North Carolina. Descendants and relatives lived in Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri and elsewhere.
