Notes
These county land ownership maps are invaluable to the genealogist in tracing family backgrounds, to the geographer for studying the rural landscape of a century ago, and to the local historian in reconstructing the cultural life of the mid-nineteenth century.
This microfiche set contains the holdings of the Library of Congress collection of pre-20th century land ownership maps which include 1449 county maps relating to 1041 counties concentrated mainly in the Northeast and North Central States and in Virginia, California, and Texas. Approximately one-third of all United States counties are represented in the collection. The great majority of the maps were prepared between 1840 and 1900 and vary in scale from 1:3,960 to 1:600,000.
Images of these maps are available via the Library of Congress website.
