Over time land is bought and property tax maps become more cluttered making it difficult to locate and compare existing land boundaries to the original shapes of land grants.  In a crude sense to preserve these old details, I’ve included several snapshots of related tax maps. I hope you’ll take time to compare the images below to what you see in the land grant maps above.
