1835 – Territorial Governor Richard Keith Call brought his force of 800 volunteer militiamen from north Florida and met General Duncan Clinch at Clinch’s plantation on this date. The plantation had been turned into a military reservation, known as Fort Drane, in present-day northwest Marion County. The force was being assembled to attack the Seminole Indians, an event which occurred a few days later on December 31 at the Battle of Withlacoochee. The battle was a major loss for the militia and regular forces, setting the tone for a seven-year fight between federal forces and the Seminoles of Florida that became known as the Second Seminole War.

What Is a Mortgage Survey?
When you purchase a home, your lender wants to know exactly what you are paying for. A survey is required by most mortgage lenders. A mortgage survey is generally conducted to determine land boundaries and building locations. As a survey, it combines a Boundary Survey and a Location Survey and it will note buildings, sheds, fences, easements and required building setbacks, and natural landmarks (waterways, lakes, rivers etc).

What Exactly is a Land Survey?
Surveying or land surveying is the technique, profession, and science of determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional position of points and the distances and angles between them.
A land survey is the application of new and conventional methods of measuring and locating existing man-made structures, natural features, elevations, angles and boundaries of a property using the principles of mathematics, geometry, and other related sciences.There are many forms of a land survey used in the industry today.
What Type of Land Survey Do I Need?
There are several reasons why one might need to conduct a land survey on a property.
ALTA/ACSM Survey
This type of land survey is often used to fulfill the requirements of a lending institution or a purchaser. ALTA/ACSM stands for American Land Title Association / American Congress on Surveying and Mapping. It is one of the most comprehensive types of land surveys used and it covers all the features and characteristics of a property.
Boundary Survey
This is a survey of the boundaries of a property and includes physical monumentation, plats and recorded deeds. This type of land survey usually involves field work on adjoining lands to identify and verify the appropriate land boundary.
Construction Survey
This land survey is used to stake out structures, such as roads, walls, buildings and utilities.
Location Survey (sometimes called a Mortgage Survey)
This type of land survey is similar to a boundary survey but with additional information on the location of interior improvements. It is commonly used to fulfill the requirements of a loan application or zoning permits.
Site Planning Survey
This type of survey is a combination of a boundary and a topographic survey. It is commonly used to design house lots, commercial & industrial sites, streets and highways, subdivisions, stores and playgrounds.
Subdivision Survey
This survey is used to divide a parcel of land into smaller lots, estates or tracts. This type of survey needs to be recorded by the concerned local government agency and is used to design streets, drainages and lots.
Topographic Survey
This type of survey locates topographic features that include utilities, ditches, roads, water courses, embankments and contours.
