FAIRFIELD COUNTY SOUTH CAROLINA

 

EARLY PLAT SERIES

 

 

 

These are copies of the original plat series for Fairfield County, South Carolina.  This is a joint project with the Fairfield County Historical Museum and the Fairfield County Library.  This is the entire Plat Series in the county records.  The records are from microfilm rolls provided by the museum and library.  The index covers the entire plat series, so it should be used regardless of which volume is being looked at. 

 

The files are in .tif format and are best viewed in an imaging application.  This particular project is based on IrFanView, available for free at:

 

http://www.irfanview.com/.

 

If you install this application, it will add it as a browser plug-in and will auto-invoke when you click any of the below links.  The images are best viewed in 256 color to allow the widest range of grayscale.  If you view it in 16 color, it comes out dark.

Plat Books

 

Please note – quality varies between the plat books. 

Some pages in some volumes are extremely faded.  The scanned images are the best that could be obtained.

POST-1845 PLAT BOOKS

 

This series of plat books covers the years 1845+.   They are in widely varying condition – from pristine to nearly unreadable.  Best quality is provided where possible.

The index is still in work – at the present, only the soundex is provided.

 

These are loading as I collate them, so links for volumes 1&2 work right now.

Select Retakes

 

These are the indexes for the post-1845 deeds.

PLEASE NOTE:  The page numbers on the FULL NAME INDEX are NOT the

number in the image file name!

Many plats have multiple images in the data set.

The original filmer and I took multiple copies at different exposures

to attempt to bring out all the text on poor / faded plats.

You should be able to read most of the text by looking at all images at different settings.

However, this means that the 4th image in the volume data set is NOT NECESSARILY

page #4 from the volume.  This is a compromise to get the best image quality overall.

 

Soundex Index

 

The soundex tells you which page a surname is on in the Full Name Index below
