Reconstructing an
Eighteenth Century “Metes
and Bounds” Neighborhood
for Genealogical Research
Sat., November 16 • 10am – 12noon
at the Philip S. Miller Library, 100 S. Wilcox St., Castle Rock
Speaker: Kirk Patton
This presentation will explore the development of a neighborhood reconstruction project and its bene ts for genealogical research. Professional genealogist Kirk Patton will discuss his ongoing e ort to plat original land grants in a neighbor- hood settled in the late 1700’s in Kentucky and will demonstrate the value of establishing connections between adjacent landowners whose property boundaries were established with “metes and bounds” descriptions. The program will examine the integration of records associated with land ownership, focusing on what those records might reveal about the relationships between neighbors.
