This original plat for Abraham Prim’s land lot shows the parameters for his 160 acres in the Salacoa Valley. The squiggly line across the plat is Pine Log Creek. The surveyors also described the types of trees as the corners of the lot. Here you see Paw Paw, Pine, Cedar, and Dogwood. Abraham Prim was what was known as a “Fortunate Drawer.” For a fee of $18, citizens of Georgia could enter a lottery in which slips of paper with the land lot numbers were mixed up in a wooden barrel, and entrants would draw a slip with either a land lot or nothing.
