OHIO RIVER SURVEY - covers most of southeastern Ohio. The base line of the survey followed the meanders of the Ohio River from the Pennsylvania-Ohio state line to the mouth of the Scioto River. Townships were numbered northward from the Ohio River, leading to non-standard locations (i.e., in Muskingum County, Township 15 North, Range 14 West, is due west of Township 11 North, Range 13 West). Includes the Ohio Company Purchase and the Donation Tract, for which there are some records; there are no records about the disposition of the French Grant in Scioto County. Contains duplicate townships (Townships 9, 10, and 11 in Range 21). Also confusing because this survey wraps around the U.S. Military District Survey.
