Centre, Clinton and Clearfield Counties

Over many years, Edward J. Heary has painstakingly created connected draft maps of the original owners of land in three counties in central Pennsylvania, thus performing a priceless service for genealogists. These maps show the boundaries of the tracts on topographic maps, warrantees of the tracts, and the survey number of each, so that the original surveys can be obtained from the Pennsylvania Archives in Harrisburg.

The respective historical societies of these counties have undertaken the job of transcribing all of the tract owners and creating an everyname index for the maps. Since the work is being done by volunteers, at this time there is no estimate for completion of the project. Mr. Heary's work will be available from the county historical societies as soon as they are ready.

In the meantime, each county is available as a whole from Mr. Heary for $200/county plus shipping. His address is:
