I do not know of the Seidle map but possibly it can be located during the next few days. However, there are a series of maps showing early warrant locations and these are available through the Cumb. Co. Historical Society at about $15 each. They were the work of Hayes Eschenmann, of Shippensburg. In addition, I have the book by Rev. William T. Swaim called "Over the River." This book contains several Cumberland Valley maps that show the approximate location of the first 100+ pioneers to cross the river under the authority of Samuel Blunston. More than 300 pioneer names (mostly Scot-Irish) are listed and the dates of arrival between 1734-1736. For example, the first license was issued on 24 Jan 1734 to Robert Miller. He got 200 acres near Carlisle on the LeTort Spring. Contact me if interested.
Some of my Scotch-Irish family came before the Revolutionary War but I don't know if they were this early. Would you please check for these names? Hunter Eaton Neeper Baxter Kindle Thanks in advance!
