[3 Aug 2026] publish_ok=yes. This is an OLD FARM DIAGRAM held back only because a TRANSFER ENDORSEMENT on its face crosses the 1936 scan cut-off - the survey itself is from the 1920s or 1930s. The names on it are the surveyor, the neighbouring farms and a transferee of the 1930s or 1940, all long dead and most of them already published as person records here. Reviewed individually, not opened as a category.
