And, if any of you have plat maps, prior to 1944, and would like to share them, let me know!  These maps can be a GREAT resource for land deeds when doing research & trying to locate those elusive relatives.  The "key" at the bottom lists landowner & acreage if known.  ENJOY!


 


The following are the names (and acreage, if known) of the farms/homes from the above map. Wittenberg Township is divided into 36 sections and these are grouped together, just like they are on the map. Because the copy I have isn't as sharp & clear for details, some of the names are "to the best of my ability".  If you find your ancestor's name and it's incorrectly listed here, PLEASE email me with the correct name & spelling.  THANKS!
