Early Land Claims on the Saxapahaw Quadrangle

NOW AVAILABLE!

I have wrapped up my work on mapping the early land claims that lie within the USGS 7.5' Saxapahaw Quadrangle. The resulting map includes parts of Henry McCulloh's Great Tract #11, parts of Edward Moseley's land grants in the Saxapahaw Old Fields, the Porter Tract (later the property of Roger Moore), as well as numerous grants from Earl Granville, from Samuel Strudwick and William F. Strudwick as well as early grants from the State of North Carolina.

The map includes land claims on Big Cane Creek, Little Cane Creek, Mary's Creek, Whitehead Creek, Poplar Branch, Rocky Run, Hardin's or Harden's Branch, the Straight Branch, Meadow Creek, Haw Creek, Hogpen Branch, and Motes Creek. Here is a low-resolution image of the map:
