All 76 of these land, or deed, records were originally housed in the Land Record books of Talbot County, Maryland. Four of the deeds deal specifically with the abandonment of a specified oyster ground. The remaining 72 are surveys of oyster ground, with a select few being both surveys and abandonments. Although the records cover a 25 year period, most of the records were concentrated in certain years, such as 1882, the 1890s, 1901, and 1903. Nevertheless, the oyster ground surveys offer examples of many different Talbot County families, surveyors, clerks, Justices of Peace, bodies of water, and maps.BackgroundThe collection of oyster surveys and abandonments was salvaged by the donor, Ronald Lesher, from a storage room of the Talbot County Land Records prior to their disposal in 1995. Mr. Lesher donated the collection to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museaum in September 1995.For further information, see vertical files: Seafood Industry and Oyster Harvesting.SubjectsOyster Ground Surveys; Talbot County-Land Records, Talbot County--History, Families, Government Officials; Eastern Shore--Oystering, Geography; Seafood Industry--Chesapeake Bay | No image URL. | View | |||
