The Lackawanna County GenWeb Project has posted images from Atlas of Luzerne County Pennsylvania. From actual Surveys by and under the direction of D. G. Beers & Co., 1873. Be sure to scroll to the bottom of the page where "Warrant Map of the North Eastern Part of Luzerne County," "Warrant Map of the Western Part of Luzerne County" and "Warrant Map of the Southern Part, plus Wilkes Barre" show the first landowners of the county. If your ancestor was actually a first landowner in the county, purchasing his or her property from the colony or state of Pennsylvania, he or she should be shown on these warrantee maps. Further details regarding these tracts can be found in the Warrant Register and Patent Register on file at the Pennsylvania Archives in Harrisburg and available on CD from Ancestor Tracks.
The following Township Warrantee Maps on file at the Pennsylvania Archives, showing the metes-and-bounds plats of the first landowners of the county, have generously been posted by the Pennsylvania Archives in Harrisburg. These Township Warrantee Maps show the first purchasers of land from the colony or state of Pennsylvania, usually from the 1700s. Paper copies may be ordered from them as well.
