Sinossi

A New Collection of Laws, Charters and Local Ordinances, Vol. 1 is a historical, translated reference of land-concession law across major colonial powers. It gathers statutes and charters from Great Britain, France, and Spain, alongside Mexican and Texas laws on land grants in the colonies. This edition presents Judge Johnson’s translation of foundational civil law material, helping readers trace how colonial titles and local regulations were shaped and defended.

This work serves as a practical resource for researchers, lawyers, and students of legal history. It situates diverse legal traditions side by side, offering context, translation notes, and cross‑references that illuminate how land claims were recognized, contested, and administered in the colonial era.


  • Primary laws and charters related to land concessions in British, French, and Spanish colonies

  • Complementary laws from Mexico and Texas on similar land questions

  • Translations and introductory material explaining the sources and context

  • Historical perspective on how treaties and national sovereignties influenced private land rights



Ideal for readers of legal history, colonial studies, or comparative law who want a tangible record of early land‑grant governance and its enduring implications.
