Transfer[edit]

The text of this article was transferred from the National Museum of Surveying page. It was off-topic, but the information didn't appear to be duplicated elsewhere and seemed interesting enough to save. WQUlrich (talk) 00:32, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

History, again[edit]

Most likely it was Essex County, MA (Salem and its environs) where we first saw surveying as part of organizing a colony. County lines had to be established. Later in the 1630s, a crew was surveying the Merrimack River. jmswtlk (talk) 20:23, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
