By Gregory A. Boyd. 61 maps, 175 pages.
An indispensable book for any serious professional or researcher interested in Lavaca County's history or land (or both), or its first landowners after Texas's Independence from Mexico.
Each book in this series is laid out into multiple maps using a 6 mile high by 4 mile wide grid. This book contains 56 such Land Survey maps.
Each Land Survey Map shows the boundaries of original parcels laid out over existing roads, railroads, waterways. These are shown as well as original Survey-Name and the Abstract Number assigned by the Texas General Land Office to the instrument that gave ownership to that parcel.
Beyond the Lavaca County Land Survey maps, there are equally useful indexes to give you the real details behind each parcel of land and its original survey and/or ownership.
Other Maps Included . . .
- Where Lavaca County Lies Within the State (Map A)
- Lavaca County and its Surrounding Counties (Map B)
- An Index Map showing where each of the Land Survey Maps are within Lavaca County (Map C)
- An Index Map that builds upon Map C and shows the community-center points in relationship to the county-grid (Map D)
- An Index Map that builds upon Map C and shows cemeteries listed in the USGS database in relationship to the county-grid (Map E)
The primary indexes (apart from each Survey-Map's own index of survey-names)
- An All-Name Index (alphabetical by last-name) for every person mentioned in the maps, utilizing both Texas General Land Office
and Texas Railroad Commission data.
- The Abstract Listing: this is where you find the real details behind each parcel of land. Items are listed by Abstract Number
Each book in this series is plastic-spiral-bound and made to last with a tough laminated cover and acid-free paper. A Hardbound version is available as well.
