This atlas, located in the Library of Congress Geography and Map Division Washington, D.C., is in the public domain but the images we have taken of the atlas posted below belong to us and are not to be used for commercial use. In lieu of being able to bring you Township Warrantee Maps of the earliest settlers, we are posting images from the 1876 Columbia and Montour Counties Pennsylvania from Recent & Actual Surveys & Records Under the Superintendence of G. Unfortunately, Pennsylvania did not plat the tracts of the earliest landowners of Montour County.

Our goal at Ancestor Tracks is to publish maps and land ownership information allowing genealogy researchers to place more precisely the locations where our ancestors lived.
