Doodling Draftsmen
Does anyone happen to have any pics of strange doodlings or “notes” on tax maps or other drawings relevant to genealogy? I remember seeing a lake or some other feature drawn as a dog on a tax map in Trumbull County, OH, and some other oddities when I worked for a land surveyor. I wish I had saved copies of them. If anyone runs across such things let me know!
