Texas Land Survey Maps for Tarrant County by Gregory Boyd

An indispensable book for any researcher interested in Tarrant 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 Survey maps laid out within this grid.

Each Land Survey Map shows the boundaries of original parcels laid out over existing roads, railroads, waterways. These are shown as well as the original Survey-Name and the Abstract Number assigned by the Texas General Land Office to the instrument that gave ownership to that parcel.

Supplemental Maps Included (in addition to the primary Survey Maps) . . .

• Where Tarrant County Lies Within the State (Map A)
• Tarrant County and its Surrounding Counties (Map B)
• An Index Map showing where each of the Land Survey Maps are within Tarrant 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)

What is the relevant time-frame (years) for this book?

Whenever the land was first sold or transferred to the public by the United States government. But the truth is that most counties took decades to settle and it is not unusual to find counties where the first patent might date in the 1820s and the last one may be in the 1920s. The important thing to remember is that these are FIRST landowners---not for just a single date---but each parcel is labeled using the first landowner.

You can answer this question with total accuracy by searching the patents in the county you are interested in at www.glorecords.blm.gov. This is, after all, our source for the patents that we map.
