In the most part of the township, the map shows two plats superimposed
on each other. The first plat includes Robert Harrison (Order No. 548,
273 acres), Paul Fooks (Order No. 1916, 288 acres), David Evans (Order No.
1969, 201 acres), and William Preston (Order No. 517, 374 acres). Each of
these names appears as a separate entry above. This collective land
was patented to a different set of people, constituting the second plat.
The boundaries of the new patents extend across the boundaries of various
original plots in a different configuration.
