Excerpt from Report of J. Thomas Scharf, Commissioner of the Land Office of Maryland, From December 1st, 1885, to January 1st, 1888, to Governor Elihu E. Jackson
Sir: I have the honor to submit the following report of all business transacted in the office of Commissioner Of The Land Office, from December 1st, 1885 (the date of my last report), to January 1st, 1888.
As the uses and object of the Land Office are not generally understood, it may be well to state that the most important records, documents, chancery proceedings, maps and other valuable papers collected by the State during the past two centuries are preserved in this office. From the time when the Lord Proprietary's Land Office was created in 1680, the muniments of title to every acre of land in the State have issued from the Land Office; and a long series of laws have since been enacted to collect and preserve in this office the evidences of title to said lands. By the passage of the Confiscation Act of 1780, all the lands of the Lord Proprietary and other British owners became vested in the State, and from these Maryland rewarded the officers and soldiers who had faithfully served her in the war of the Revolution. The Act of 1781 "to appropriate certain lands for the use of the officers and soldiers of this State, and for the sale of vacant lands," was the source from which the Land Office of the State originated. By that act a Land Office was provided for the Eastern Shore, and another for the Western Shore, which offices were consolidated in 1841, and the present Land Office created.
