ADDITIONS AND SUBDIVISIONS INTO LOTS.
COMPILED BY W. H. CUNNINGHAM, JR.
Ebenezer Zane and Elizabeth his wife, on the nineteenth day of December, in the year one thousand eight hundred, for the consideration of one hundred dollars, conveyed to Jonathan Zane and John McIntire, " a certain tract or parcel of land, containing six hundred and forty acres, lying, and being, in the said county of Washington, in the northwest territory, on the MuSkingum river, and bounded as followeth, viz : Beginning at the northwest corner at a post where a white oak, thirty inches in diameter, bears south twenty-one degrees, east twenty-three links distant, and an elm, six inches diameter, bears north eighty degrees, east twenty-two links distant, thence runs east ninety chains, to a post where a butternut tree, sixteen inches diameter, bears north ten degrees, east seven links distant, and one other butternut, fourteen inches diameter, bears south fifty degrees, east twenty-five links distant, thence south eighty chains, to a dogwood sapling, where a hickory, twenty-four inches diameter, bears north ten degrees, east fourteen links distant, and another hickory, eight inches diameter, bears south sixteen degrees, west twenty-six links distant ; thence, west ninety chains, to a post, where a white oak, eight inches diameter, bears north sixty-four degrees, east twenty-four links distant, and an elm, fourteen inches diameter, bears south ten degrees, west six links, thence north eighty chains, to the place of beginning."
This being the "Zane grant," so called. The nature' of the bearing trees at the southeast corner would generally indicate that the land at what is now the corner of Seventh and South streets was rather low, perhaps a "hickory flat." The "dogwood sapling" stood at that corner for many years, being carefully preserved as one of the most important trees in the vicinity. Jonathan Zane and John McIntire proceeded to lay out a town, and on the 28th day of April, 1802, the Plat of the Town of Zanesville was filed for record. The town was laid out in the southeast corner to the Zane grant, and extended to within a short distance of the Muskingum river on the west. The east line was the west line of Seventh street, being forty-nine and a half feet west of the east line of the grant. The south line was the north line of South street, being thirty-three feet north of the south line of the Zane grant. The north line was the south line of North street.
The town, as laid out, consisted of nineteen squares, of sixteen lots each, except square one, which had six lots ; square two, containing four lots ; square three, with eight lots and two fractions ; square four, containing twelve lots, and square five, containing fourteen lots and a fraction. There was also a tier of lots unnumbered and lying west of square seven, and extending from Second street to the river, and from Market street to North street.
Lots eight and sixteen in the thirteenth square, were by the plat appropriated for a Market house, and lots five, six, seven and eight in the twelfth square, (the Court house lot) "for other public uses."
The first lot sold was sold to Noah Zane, he paying thirty dollars for lot one in square two, it being the first lot on the north side of Main street, east of the canal. The deed is dated May 31, 1802.
John Dillon, as Master Commissioner, by order of Court, on the ninth day of January, A. D. 1849, subdivided a part of lots 3 and 4, in square 2, into four lots, but the property is now conveyed as parts of the original lots, no attenti0n being paid to the subdivision.
John R. Howard, owning parts of lots 10, 12, in the fourth square, subdivided them on January 25, 1842, making five lots, leaving a small private alley back of the lots fronting Main street.
James Taylor, owning lots 7 and 8 in the fifth square, subdivided them into fifteen lots, six fronting Main street, three fronting Third street, and the others lying back. This plat was recorded December 26, 1826, but bears no other date. May 9, 1834, these lots being then owned by James Taylor, Peter Printz and S. P. Bailey, a partition was made between them, Taylor receiving a lot on the corner of Main street and Beech alley. Printz receiving a lot on the

corner of Main and Third streets, and one fronting Third, and Bailey taking a lot fronting Third street, lying south of a ten foot alley, running from third street to Beech alley. Taylor, on the 9th day of November, 1836, subdivided his portion into three lots, fronting Main street, a four foot alley, and one lot corner of Beech alley and the ten foot alley.
Amasa Van Home, as Executor, by order of the Court, subdivided the east halves of lots 5, 6, 7 and 8, making five lots, which are known as being in Van Home'S subdivision, in the sixth square. This subdivision was made May 4, 1864.
For many years, an alley running diagonally through the eighth square, from South street to Third street, had been used as a public highway. In May, 1853, Daniel Applegate and Benjamin Wheeler presented a petition to the City Council, representing that they were the owners of all the land adjoining said alley, from Potter's alley to Third street, and asking that that portion of the alley should be vacated, alleging, as the principal reason, that it hindered the improvement of that part of the city. Accordingly on the 16th day of May, 1853, the Council, upon the recommendation of a committee appointed for the purpose, declared vacated that portion of the diagonal alley in the eighth square lying between Potter's alley and Third street.
Gordius A. Hall, on the 15th day of November, 1833, subdivided lots seven and eight in the eighth square, making seven lots and two alleyS.
Alexander McLaughlin, (sometime between May and October, 1809,) subdivided lots nine, ten and eleven, in the eighth square, making five lots and a ten foot alley. This plat is very imperfect, there being no date to the plat or to the record, and no signature or acknowledgment to the plat.
William C. Kirker, April 22, 1833, subdivided lot sixteen in the ninth square into five lots fronting on Main street, leaving a narrow alley in the rear of them ; and on December 17, 1850, B. F. Leslie, as Sheriff, by order of the Court, subdivided seventy-nine and a half feet off the west side of Kirker's subdivision into four lots.
James Taylor, August 7, 1840, subdivided the east parts of lots one and two, in square eleven, into three lots, and January 9, 1849, John Dillon, as Master Commissioner, divided lots one and two of this subdivision into two lots. James Taylor, on August 7, 1840, divided fifty feet off the south side of lot number four in the eleventh. square into four lots, but did not number them,:
David J. Marple subdivided lots nine, ten, eleven and twelve in the eleventh square into ten lots, five fronting on Main street and five fronting Fifth street. There is also included a reservation of ten feet wide, lying south of the Main street lots, and now used as a private alley. There is no date to this plat, and neither signature nor acknowledgment. It was recorded 'January 22, 1822. It is frequently called the "Bank subdivision."
Sheriff B. F. Leslie, by order of the court, on December 17, 1850, subdivided the south half of lot seven and lot eight, in the fourteenth square, into seven lots.

Wm. A. Adams, Master Commissioner, by order of Court, December 1, 1836, divided lots five, six, seven and eight in square sixteen into nine lots. This subdivision is sometimes called "Chancery Subdivision," but is more generally known as "Culbertson's Subdivision."
Thomas Drake and Edward S. Garner, March 26, 1866, subdivided lots one, two and three in the seventeenth square into eight lots.
John Stevens, January 4, 1869, subdivided the east halves of lots nine, ten and eleven and part of the west half of lot eleven in square seventeen into five lots.
Sheriff Carson Porter, by order of Court, April 3, 1849, subdivided a part of lots six, seven and eight in square eighteen into three lots.
Shortly after the town of Zanesville was laid out, Messrs. Zane and McIntire aparted the residue of Zane's Grant. That portion immediately adjoining the town on the north and extending from Seventh street to the river, became the property of John McIntire, and the part north of it, lying between a line drawn from Elm street west and the river, was conveyed to Zane.
March 21, 1855, the administrators of the estate of John McIntire laid out that portion of this part of Zane's Grant which lies between Seventh and Third streets. The subdivision was called the "Northern Addition," containing fifty-six lots. The streets and alleys were made to correspond with the streets and alleys in the original town. The square bounded by Sixth, North, Fifth and Center streets, containing a little more than two acres, was dedicated for school purposes.
September 24, 1862, McIntire's administrators laid out "Northern Addition No. 2," embracing the land between Third street and Beech alley and North street and the railroad, into nine lots, numbered consecutively from fifty-seven to sixty-five, both inclusive, and an alley 16i feet wide.
The Zane tract lying north, consisting of twenty-three and a half acres, in a triangular form, was purchased by David J. Marple, and was, by him, July 21, 181o, divided into seven lots of fromtwo and a half to about four acres in size. These lots have always been designated as out lots in "'Marple's River Bottom."
Daniel Brush, as proprietor, July 3, 1843, subdivided outlot one, Marple's river bottom, calling it "Howard's sub-division," by which name it has since been known. He laid out six lots, fronting on the south side of Water street ; four lots front Court street, which street he made thirty-three feet wide ; and one lot fronting the east side of Fourth street, leaving a small trian-

G. A. Jones' addition is also a part of outlot four, consisting of six lots fronting the west side of Sixth street, south of what is known as the "old Rope Walk lot." The plat is dated February 18, 1850.
John R. Howard, January 8, 1836, sub-divided a part of outlot five,which sub-division was called by the name of "Howard street lots." Two lots front Fifth street, north of Howard ; thirteen lots front the north side of Howard street ; three lots front Seventh street ; a large lot, running from Fifth street nearly to Seventh street on the south of Howard street, is called the rope walk lot. It has since been cut up, by reason of Sixth street and the alleys being extended north to Howard street ; the east end of Howard street is the shape of an arc of a circle, the center point of which, in the original plat, was north of the street, but the Common Pleas Court at the April term, 1837, upon petition of John R. Howard, changed it so the center of the circle would fall south of the street.

John McIntire, March 23, 1809, laid out a tier of lots fronting the west side of River street, which were numbered on the recorded plat from one to twenty inclusive. Several years afterwards it was discovered that the lots had been deeded as if in squares of eight lots to the square, while there were no squares designated on the recorded plat. This led to a great confusion in the conveyances, which was remedied by a special act of the Legislature passed March 2, 1838 (Local Laws 1838, p. 156), which declared that the recorded plat should govern.
The administrators of John McIntire, March 12, 1861, laid out twelve lots north of lot twenty, fronting the west side of River street,which were numbered from twenty-one to thirty-two, both inclusive.
