Plat books contain maps of each township with land parcels outlined with the name of the land owner and acreage of parcel. Also the maps will list cemeteries, schools and roads. The scan at the right illustrates the available information. The bad news is that there is no index for the book. This plat book contains maps of the townships.
Pulaski county is located in southern Illinois and is surrounded by Alexander & Union counties. The county seat is Mound City.
