{"product_id":"9781420315547","title":"Family Maps of Walton County, Florida, Deluxe Edition: With Homesteads, Roads, Waterways, Towns, Cemeteries, Railroads, and More","description":"404 pages with 128 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 Walton County, Florida, 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 3955 Parcels of Land\u003cbr\u003e (with original landowner names and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map)\u003cbr\u003e 16 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\u003e1820s 44\u003cbr\u003e1830s 10\u003cbr\u003e1840s 27\u003cbr\u003e1850s 180\u003cbr\u003e1860s 48\u003cbr\u003e1870s 4\u003cbr\u003e1880s 256\u003cbr\u003e1890s 877\u003cbr\u003e1900s 1061\u003cbr\u003e1910s 580\u003cbr\u003e1920s 197\u003cbr\u003e1930s 15\u003cbr\u003e1940s 2\u003cbr\u003e1950s 625\u003cbr\u003e1960s 13\u003cbr\u003e1970s 3\u003cbr\u003e1980s 1\u003cbr\u003e2000s 5\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat Cities and Towns are in Walton County, Florida (and in this book)?\u003cbr\u003eAlpine Heights, Alys Beach, Argyle, Battle Ground Forks, Bay View, Beach Highlands, Big Hammock, Blue Gulf Beach, Blue Mountain Beach, Bruce, Bunker, Caney Creek, Center Ridge, Choctaw, Choctaw Bay Estates, Choctaw Beach, Clear Springs, Cluster Springs, Cosson Mill, Darlington, De Funiak Springs, Dixon, Douglass Crossroads, Dune Allen Beach, Ealum, Eucheeanna, Flowersville, Fluffy Landing, Forest Highlands, Four Mile Village, Freeport, Gaskin, Glendale, Gordon, Grayton Beach, Grosh, Gulf Pines, Inlet Beach, Knox Hill, Koerber, La Grange Point, Lakewood, Liberty, Miller Bend, Miramar Beach, Mossy Head, New Harmony, New Home, Old Bay View, Paxton, Piney Grove, Pleasant Grove, Pleasant Grove, Pleasant Ridge, Point Washington, Pond Creek, Portland, Redbay, Rock Hill, Rosemary Beach, Sand Hill, Sandestin, Santa Rosa Beach, Sconiers Mill, Seacrest, Seagrove Beach, Seascape, Seaside, Steele Church, Tang-O-Mar Beach, The Village of Baytowne Wharf, Turquoise Beach, Union, Villa Tasso, Walcan, Watercolor\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arphax Publishing Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49850204520688,"sku":"9781420315547","price":40.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781420315547","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
