Indexes of Colonial and State Records If one of your ancestors could have received a warrant to have land surveyed between 1682 and 1898, but you don't know in what county, see Pennsylvania Archives, 3d series. Volumes 1-4 and 24-26 include land records. The surname indexes are in volumes 27-30 (FHL film 824436-38). For additional assistance in identifying the county, search Allen Weinberg and Thomas E.
