{"product_id":"9781420312720","title":"Family Maps of Garland County, Arkansas, Deluxe Edition: With Homesteads, Roads, Waterways, Towns, Cemeteries, Railroads, and More","description":"358 pages with 80 total maps\u003cp\u003eLocating 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 Garland County, Arkansas, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat's Mapped in this book (that you'll not likely find elsewhere) . . .\u003cbr\u003e 6919 Parcels of Land\u003cbr\u003e (with original landowner names and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map)\u003cbr\u003e 44 Cemeteries plus . . .\u003cbr\u003e Roads, and existing Rivers, Creeks, Streams, Railroads, and Small-towns (including some historical), etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat YEARS are these maps for?\u003cbr\u003eHere are the counts for parcels of land mapped, by the decade in which the corresponding land patents were issued:\u003cbr\u003eDecade Parcel-count\u003cbr\u003e1830s 37\u003cbr\u003e1840s 86\u003cbr\u003e1850s 169\u003cbr\u003e1860s 161\u003cbr\u003e1870s 188\u003cbr\u003e1880s 2873\u003cbr\u003e1890s 950\u003cbr\u003e1900s 1077\u003cbr\u003e1910s 976\u003cbr\u003e1920s 401\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat Cities and Towns are in Garland County, Arkansas (and in this book)?\u003cbr\u003eAvant, Bear, Beaudry (historical), Blakely, Blue Springs, Bonanza Springs (historical), Bucksville (historical), Cedar Glades (historical), Chandler, Crystal Springs, Crystal Springs Landing, Dripping Springs (historical), Euclid Heights, Fountain Lake, Gladstone (historical), Gulpha (historical), Hamilton, Hawes, Hempwallace, High Point (historical), Hot Springs, Hot Springs Village, Jessieville, Lake Catherine, Lake Hamilton, Lena (historical), Lofton, Lonsdale, Maddox, Meaford (historical), Meyers, Mount Tabor, Mountain Pine, Mountain Valley, Oakwood (historical), Old Bonnerdale, Oma, Ozark Lithia, Peak, Pearcy, Pettyview, Piney, Pleasant Hill, Potash Sulphur Springs (historical), Price, Red Oak, Rockwell, Royal, Spring Lake (historical), Sunshine\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arphax Publishing Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47029054308592,"sku":"9781420312720","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781420312720_p0.jpg?v=1763730188","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781420312720","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
