Description: The map depicts most of the early grants within the bounds of Fauquier County. This is neither a complete nor a totally accurate representation. Poor surveying techniques and equipment, inaccurate lines and missing calls led to overlapping grants. Court suits and escheats due to lack of heirs or failure to pay quit rents led to regrants. Sales of early grants sometimes led to regrants of the original grant or a combination of several grants or portions into a new grant. The plats have been placed in their approximate location with some boundary adjustments based on topography or adjacent tract boundaries. What you see on this map is our best representation of the early landscape. The map is intended for historical reference only.
