Finding the old entries that go back to patent are pretty interesting. Some of the old boundary descriptions can be funny too. They used to use whatever market was there in some cases so it'll be like the northernmost boundary proceeds to the moose shaped rock, thence 230 feet blah blah ...
I saw a couple of examples like that. I’d dread having land dispute back then.
