Book Synopsis The First Landowners of Greene County, Pennsylvania by : Don Corbly

Book excerpt: This book lists the first landowners who recorded land claims beginning in 1784 in what became Greene County, Pennsylvania. Prior to that time the settler claimed his land by marking its boundary with blazed trees or other significant landmarks. A claim was only as secure as the settler's ability to enforce it by barter or force of arms. When an accurate survey of his land could be established by the Mason-Dixon survey, each landowner rushed to the County Land Office to obtain a surveyed plat of his claim. Those surveyed plats are listed in this book along with the person to whom they later sold their land. A detailed index is included for the genealogically minded reader.This book is purchased at the lowest cost through Lulu.com.
