About LandHistory.org

LandHistory.org is a nonprofit library of land history. Its mission is to gather the public record of America's land (surveys, patents, maps, soils, census, fire, flood and more) and help anyone read the story of a place.

It is the library behind YourLandHistory.org, where people get readable reports on their own parcels. YourLandHistory was co-founded by Bob Zybach and Dave Sullivan.
