Washington Co. > Land Plats > Jeremiah Gardner Washington Co. land
Jeremiah Gardner owned multiple tracts of land in Washington County, Virginia. The map below shows his major holdings. The plats were drawn using the metes and bounds from the appropriate survey, purchase or sale deed. They were placed on a mid-1900s USGS map based on the location of neighboring parcels and other landmarks noted in the deed description. These early plats often contained errors hence both the shape and position on the map should be considered a close approximation rather than an exact rendering.

For additional information please see Jeremiah Gardner's narrative page. Jeremiah and his family probably lived on the land indicated as #4, at least from the mid 1830s to the early 1840s.
