The printed Marion County plat book and the online parcel map answer the same question, who owns the land near New Hope, in different ways. This guide covers finding a printed edition for Marion County, Tennessee, and using the free parcel map in the meantime.
What a Marion County plat book is
Private publishers compile plat books from county records, so a county edition is a snapshot of who owned land near Jasper the year it was printed. It's different from a recorded plat, which is the official survey drawing for a subdivision in Jasper filed with the county.
Opening the Marion County parcel viewer
For Marion County, the free public parcel layer is state-run: open the Tennessee Property Viewer and pan to New Hope.
