Summary

The General Land Office issued this patent to AMBROSE GAGAKISHIM; EVA C NICKERSON; STERLING M NICKERSON; RAPHAEL on 15 March 1954, out of the Marquette land office. The land is T35N R13W Section 29 — 35N13W29 on the Michigan Meridian (19) once the description is normalised. Its authority is Indian Fee Patent, and the row cites October 14, 1865 (14 Stat. 703). Accession 1143397 has this one location row, and the source reports 40.3000 acres for it. The detail record names the tribe OTTAWA, allotment number 45.

Ownership evidence and limits

A patent records the moment the United States parted with the land, and stops there. Whatever happened afterwards sits in the county deed index rather than here. The grantee is the spelling a clerk wrote in 1954, and it stays a spelling until a separate identity record carries the link to a person or an organisation. A shared surname is not that record.

PLSS connections

Open questions

  • Does the county deed index record a conveyance out of this patent?
  • Does any held record identify the grantees named on this row beyond these spellings?
  • Does the allotment or trust file behind this entry survive?
