Record of proceedings of commissioners appointed by the court to perpetuate or restore land boundaries, 1774-1843 and 1961, to divide or sell inherited land, 1790-1896, and to lay out private roads, 1807-1826. Land boundary documents usually consist of petitions, court orders, oaths of commissioners, depositions, and commission reports, but only a few surveys and plats. Estate proceedings contain petitions, court orders, oaths of commissioners, and commission reports which usually include surveys and plats. Road records consist of petitions, court orders, oaths of commissioners, and commission reports which usually include surveys and plats. The books are available also on film in series CM250 and CM229, but the quality of most images ranges from fair to unreadable. The pages containing plats are referenced in (Plat References, CA, Index) in series S1555, (Plats, Index) in series C547 and C548, and (Plats on Microfilm, CA) in series S1534. These entries will serve as the basis for an electronic finding aid, supplemented by the records themselves.
