10WN SURVEY RECORDS 



The use of original Crown Survey Records for reproduction or reference pur- 

 poses by the survey branches of the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario, 

 the Ontario Department of Highways, Ontario Land Surveyors in private practice 

 and the general public, continues to increase. 



Two thousand, seven hundred and five (2,705) cards were typed covering 

 plans being recatalogued and filed in the Survey Record Catalogue. In addition, 

 197 entries were made in the Surveyors' designation number card index of sur- 

 veyed parcels, including change of file numbers. The returns of surveys of 7 1 plans 

 of subdivisions made for summer resort purposes and 150 plans of miscellaneous 

 surveys consisting of the surveys of pipeline right-of-ways, reference plans, retrace- 

 ment resurveys made on Crown Lands, individual summer resort location surveys 

 and water lots as well as 54 books of field notes were registered, catalogued and 

 filed. Field notes showing the location of, and type of monument used to restore 

 1 68 points of the original Crown survey fabric, were filed. 



The refiling of all plans of surveys, with the exception of the plans of 

 surveyed mining claims presently filed on current correspondence files into the 

 vertical filing system, was continued this fiscal year. Approximately 34,500 flat, 

 current correspondence files were examined. Approximately 11,355 plans of 

 surveys, descriptions, field notes and affidavits were removed and refiled into the 

 vertical filing system. This required the typing of approximately 8,000 filing 

 labels which was done partly by the summer casual help and partly by the full 

 time staff. All survey record material removed from the files was microfilmed.
