Default acquiring land

Here's the deal. I bought a plot book and found this spot where no one has hunted for a long time. it must be a cabin property orsomthing but theres no cabin on it.its all oaks. i asked some locals and they don't know anything about this piece of land either. It says a name in the plot book but i tired yahoo peaple search and came up empty. anywhere else i can try to find out where i can find a phone number so i can contact this person???

you can usually go to the county courthouse. all land ownership in the county is usually public record. if not courthouse, county tax collector.

That's exactly what I did to find out who owned ten acres next to my 150.

Normaly a Plat map has a number then references over to the owner,or if its a spacific Plat map for a small area it will have owners name over the property....Courthouse is just as easy...

definitely the courthouse. they should be able to give you the address of the owner.

that's a good way of looking for land to hunt. I always intended to do that but never followed through.
