Rural Land Owners Of Barbour County, Alabama.

In 1851 A.B. Herbert, Register, made maps of every township of Barbour County showing ownership of each parcel of rural land. These maps were marked "correct up to March 1, 1851". Names of the land owners were abstracted from the maps with the descriptions of the land by section, township, and range. The primary purpose of this book is to make available to the researcher as much documented information as possible concerning these land owners - names, dates, places of birth and death, names of spouses, names of parents and former places of residence. In the absence of documented proof, speculation is occasionally included. Approximate dates and places of birth as well as year of arrival in Alabama are from the 1850 census of Barbour County unless a different reference is given. The spelling of both given names and surname varies according to the reference used. All records are for Barbour County unless specified. About 1866, parts of Barbour County were cut into Russell and Bullock Counties. This land is shown by an (R) for Russell County and a (B) for Bulloch County following the description.
