From what I know, it began with a land patent. Often times, land speculators bought the land and then resold it. Regards, ED

Hi all,

 

Does anyone have any experience with US land patent records versus county records? Which came 1st?? I am having some discrepancies with dates. Did the person who wanted to purchase the property go to the land patent office in Mineral Point 1st and then the transaction was recorded at the county level or vice versa?

 

Thanks,

Paul
