Viewers Report on Bloomfield and Lyons Gravel Road
The document details an 1800s county viewers report for Greene County Indiana proposing to grade and gravel a Bloomfield Lyons public highway, with extensive survey descriptions, estimated cost of $20,500, and a long list of property owners across Bloomfield and Lyons additions who would receive benefits and be assessed for damages. It notes the route from Bloomfield depot along the rail line to intersecting roads, the proposed 36 foot wide road with gravel layers and drainage, and specifies assessment figures by owner and parcel, including numerous lots, blocks, and fractional tracts within two miles of the road.
