plat book

usually the county office will let you photocopy pages for a small fee - so you dont have to purchase the whole book

Stand in the middle of it dressed head to toe in hunter orange on November 15th. I'm sure someone will inform you who owns it.:lol::lol::lol: Of course I'm kidding!
The platte book is the best way to go or go to the county register of deeds.

Some county equalization depts have the info online.

Montcalm county is one. There site is real good, just takes a while to figure out how it works. You can put
property lines on the aerial and click on the dot and it gives you the owners name, mailing address and other info.

Thanks Wade (see post #8) That is the maps I was talking about in this post. It takes a little trying differnet ways to get what you want. I was on my way out the door when I made thsi post and wanted to get up in my NO DEER Seen again blind.
