Yes Anne;

That is exactly the site I was thinking of, but had no idea what it was.

Again it depends on the county what is available, I know somewhere I was
able to access a lot of original plats for Oregon, which is the maps that
the original survey created in the period from about 1850 to 1870. Often
those are quite interesting reading as they will have area deemed unpassable
etc. and historic trails and such on them, as well as named ownerships.
