[or-roots] survey records

[Kith-n-Kin]

Here is the "new" location for the cadastral GLO maps, which were made from the surveys (at least some of
them) that you may be discussing.

If you know township, and range, you should get whatever is there. Now, if the survey never got far enough
along to become a "map" I would guess that the original records are either at Salem Archives or at the BLM
office there.  I've never checked the Archives for this type of material.

A friend told me about a location where he and a crew were doing a survey in Lake County.  He said that
they got the survey records 'from Salem'.  He was working for the BLM, I think, at the time.  And as they
reviewed the original records and and were doing a sub-division (not the residental kind) the survey
ended.  In another hand writing were the notes that were written something like this, "the survey team
members were all killed by Indians".  The date was in the late 1800"s.  
 
I know the area and the legal description fairly close.  How do I find the actual records?
