Backing up the map with records

Using it on a phone

Reaching an owner

A word on accuracy
If you're looking near Boykin, the acreage figure is an estimate; only a licensed surveyor sets the real boundary on the ground. In and around Boykin, owner names and values update on a schedule, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
