This book contains B&W images of the original survey plats for the State of Florida. Sometimes the surveyor will include a key road on the plat, as it meanders across it. The three major roads in this book are Kings Highway, Bellamy Road (sometimes known as Federal Road), and Spring Garden Trail. The intent of this book is to provide all the information possible from the BLM survey plats across the state. Sometimes the road is well marked and other times not so much. When the road is visible - modern maps will be overlaid in order to see how the old road aligns to modern routes - as well as - how close some of these well-known roads align to the same named road today. The famous N-S route - Kings Highway - is so named today on many sections of the old road - are they correct? Is the old road where the modern road is? Also included are many histories, such as Spanish Land Grantees, Fort Picolata and Fort Poppa, and other historical sites along the way. Appendix sections covers - DeLeon Spring (Spring Garden), Town of Volusia and Astor and how to understand Florida land grants.
