I keep bumping into these morsels of descriptions of land bounds. Does anybody have the time to purchase this program that takes land "meets and bounds" and overlays them onto modern topographical maps? http://www.ultranet.com/~deeds/index.shtml Here is an example of a map I would like to see. The quotation is from Bunker Long Island Genealogies p.181: 1767. Thomas and Elisabeth Allen sold to Joseph Birdsall, land bounded south by Jacob Seaman's land near the school house, west by the main road, then northerly, easterly and southerly, then westerly by land of Solomon Seaman, and Thomas and Samuel Seaman, to Jacob Seaman's land, then west by that to the road about 41 acres, 2d piece on the west side of the road, the north east corner near Samuel Seaman's barn, bounded north by Samuel's, west by Thomas's and Jacob's, south by road that leads from Jerusalem to Hempstead, 48 acres.
