Due to the organization of documents in the GLO collection, this web site does not currently contain every Federal title record issued for the listed states. http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/ This index was taken from the BLM site; to get further information on individuals, go to the above URL and follow through. The majority of the Patent Land claims will have come from the 1820 Act of Congress pertaining to public lands. The signature date referenced below is the date the person bought the land, Do not confuse the 1820 on each one as the date of purchase, it pertains to the act allowing the purchase. Some purchase dates after 1863 pertain to the Homestead Act.
