I will tell you why I never opted to offer help with those "TRIG" maps. Several years back some "IDIOT" in Nth England sent me a link to the one's in the town where my lot came from..... It must have been the same guy who put those maps together for our fine State tooooo. It took me several years to get over the experience :P :-[ :-X :-\ :'( ;) :o

 :-[   Have I mentioned that my professional experiences are as an Engineering Draftsman .... And as a female, I was not at all offended nor thought the title was 'sexist' etc despite qualifying back in the days before Political Correctness altered the title of the occupation to Drafter.   

JM  :-[  :-[  :-[   OH has promised he will take a quick peek later today or tomorrow to see if he can find Concord Farm on any of the maps.  (He's the Ginger Beer in our household)

As the Mr Wescott was dead by 1826 :'( I dont think his name or the farm name existed when these hystericle maps were drawn and I dont think they are "TRIG" ummmm could be Cadastal maps.

They are photographic images and result from passes of a 25mm camera across the Veeeeeeeery large maps. Probably done pre WW2 and never updated to Digital images.

I have just gone over all those bits south of Kissing point and Putney point and not found any mention of the farm ???

I am Lost ... please send search party.

I reckon it was most likely fronting Parramatta Road perhaps around "Liberty Plains" .... so I think Neil needs to swim across the river quick smart before he gets further lost.

I think they built a cemetery at Liberty Plains area ROOKWOOD.

I was going off the description.......JM

charming property, situate on the Parramatta River opposite to Ryde, and within a pleasant distance of Sydney, by either land or water....... ;)

Neil not as lost as Jm ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
