Posted on: Jefferson County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Mo/Jefferson/10461 Surname: Lanham, Drinen, Moore ------------------------- In doing my family research, I recently found a number of land patents issued in Jefferson County for ancestors, and I would like some direction as to where I can get copies of specific Township Range Map pages. Thanks in advance. Randy

Randy......... You can order the type of maps you want from the "Missouri Department of Transportation"...... http://www.modot.state.mo.us and scroll down to "Request County Maps".... The maps show the Townships, Range and Sections....... At 50 cents a map.... you might want to order for others counties while you're at it....... I wish ALL States had maps like the Missouri maps....... Also..... the following website has a "Detailed" explantion about "Townships, Range and Sections"........ It is a "MUST READ" (my opinion) for beginners....... http://members.tripod.com/LeeHouse/platTool.htm#T&Rsys NOTE: The calculator part.... currently is not available.... Hope this helps...
