For those of you who may not have used this site before, once you find your
ancestor, be sure to do a search on the legal description (twp, range,
section, etc.) to see who the neighbors were. I have found family that I
didn't even know lived in a certain county where I was looking for someone
else. In a few cases, they came to the state together and purchased land and
then moved on before the big census years. This is certainly one of my
'standard' sites! Marianne
