Soozieq033@cs.com  Posted by WayneGenWeb Volunteer:  Paulette Quarterman

NANKIN TWP. (NOW WESTLAND) WAYNE CO., MICHIGAN
Town No. 2 South, Range 9 East


This is a transcription of the 1876 Platt Map of Nankin Twp., now Westland, Wayne Co., Michigan. I have transcribed the names to the best of my ability (portions of the map were very hard to read) so check for possible spelling errors on names. I have also listed the acerage amount, if readable. You can go to the Bureau of Land Management’s Federal Land Patent Records Site, for further information. There are 35 Platt sections for this township. I should point out that some properties extended into and adjoining section. Copies of 1876, 1905, and 1916 Platt maps can be purchased at the Westland Historical Society, 36601 Ford Rd. Westland, MI 48185 for $1.00. Any name with an * is connected to my family, if you have a connection or would like further information on any of the surnames in my family, you may contact me at soozieq033@cs.com
