This atlas brings to light one of the most invaluable new tools for researchers of western Pennsylvania: Township Warrantee Maps of the tracts which the Penn family, and then the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, sold to the first settlers of Washington County. The atlas contains images of the original large maps housed in the Pennsylvania Archives in Harrisburg for current Washington County. The information on each tract is a gold mine: names of the warrantee and patentee, if the patentee is different; name of the tract; dates of the warrant, survey, and patent; and patent book and page number where the tract is registered. Each chapter contains the map of the township showing its tracts (reduced to 8.5 X 11" size), followed by a chart containing all data on each tract in alphabetical order by the warrantees name. The chart also shows the coordinates where the tract will be found on the map page at the beginning of the chapter. Numerous footnotes from a variety of sources document further information on pioneers, as well as family relationships in some cases. [A slightly different version of these Township Warrantee maps was published in the third volume of the Horn Papers which has long been out-of-print.] In addition to documenting the first landowners of Washington County, the atlas can often reveal family relationships or clues to possible relationships since relatives usually congregated near one another. Secondly, since people usually moved in groups, tracking sets of families and neighbors as a whole can frequently suggest routes of migration. Finally, later owners of these tracts can be traced back to the exact location of their plat by following their transactions through deed and will books. In some cases, names on the Township Warrantee Maps are the only record that certain people actually existed. This is the first volume in a series of approximately 33 volumes that will eventually cover all of the counties for which Township Warrantee Maps exist. (Unfortunately, Township Warrantee Maps only exist for about one-third of Pennsylvanias counties.) Everyname Index. Four-color laminated cover.

Were your early PA settlers on the frontier before the boundary between Pennsylvania and Virginia was settled? Early Landowners of Pennsylvania: Land Tracts Transferred from Virginia to Pennsylvania Jurisdiction 1779-1780 is an updated transcription of an original notebook which documents the chronological transfer of land tracts after the Mason-Dixon Line settled the boundary dispute between Virginia and Pennsylvania. At that time, Pennsylvania took over all of the land that had been sold by Virginia to settlers, and surveyors recorded these transfers in this notebook. The tracts are in what are todays counties of Washington, Fayette, Greene, Allegheny, and part of Beaver. This transcription was made from the original notebook at the Pennsylvania Archives in Harrisburg. An earlier transcription was published in the Third Series of Pennsylvania Archives (Vol. III, pp. 483-573) in 1894 under William Egles tutelage. Unfortunately, there are some problems with the transcription printed in Pennsylvania Archives: some of the entries listed in the original notebook were omitted; many of the names were not transcribed exactly; and there is no alphabetical index in the 1894 printing. Another omission is that hundreds of annotations have been added in the margins of the notebook in the 110 years since the transcription was originally published. The present volume is a long-needed revision of Egles 1894 edition, complete with the following changes: all missing entries have been added; all names have been transcribed exactly as entered in the notebook; all of the marginal annotations have been included; and an everyname index has been incorporated. Additionally, every effort has been made to identify the location of the tracts which have no entry in the Where Situate column. Finally, maps have been added of the waterways to show the approximate location of the tracts. Everyname index. Four-color laminated cover.
