Millville - The First 200 Years
Chapter XIV
Town Layout
(The maps that were included in the original may be reproduced later.)
Through
the years the community has changed ownership many times. Each generation has
passed on the real estate as an inheritance to the next. Following this
progressive division of the original tracts is difficult. Many of the first
deeds were recorded at Sunbury or Philadelphia. Tracing them is difficult at
the least and with the unusual recording procedures used, the effort to outline
the succeeding ownership is nearly impossible.
To provide a common language of territory, the maps and plot layouts that follow have been reproduced. Hopefully, future changes can be recorded by some method that permits a tracing of the history for those who follow.
