If a legal description for land in Marshall cites a lot number, you'll need the Marshall plat map to make sense of it. In this Marshall guide: where to request a copy, how a plat differs from a parcel map, and the details that matter to buyers.
Tracking down the Marshall plat map
For a subdivision near Hallsville, the deed usually cites the plat; use it to request a copy.
Opening the official parcel viewer
Begin with the Texas county CAD map; it includes each assessed parcel from Waskom to Uncertain. For a parcel near Hallsville, enter a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, then pick the result to center the map on it. If you're looking near Uncertain, the parcel card typically gives the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, a parcel ID and often a sale date.
City limits and county records
Marshall sits in Harrison County, Texas, so its parcels are on the county's map. As the county seat, Marshall hosts the courthouse, so deeds and plats are filed in town. For a tract near Longview, the municipality handles things like zoning, permits and utilities for lots inside the boundary, while the county keeps the tax map. Lots just outside the city limits out by Uncertain generally falls under county rules, not municipal ones.
Recorded plat or GIS layer
The Texas county CAD map draws parcels for taxes, while the recorded plat is the legal document.
What a plat shows
