Plat books contain maps of each township with land parcels outlined with the name of the land owner and acreage of parcel. Also the maps will list cemeteries, schools and roads. In addition to the maps there is a historical directory listing their address, nativity and when they entered the county. There is also a photo section with portraits, photos of houses & businesses. The supplemental material at the end of the atlas is not included in this reprint. The original copy of this book had chips and soling to map without lost of content.
