Summary
The General Land Office issued this patent to HIGH ISLAND CORP on 27 August 1954, out of the Washington Ofc. The land is T38N R11W Section 4 NENW — 38N11W4NWNE on the Michigan Meridian (19) once the description is normalised. Its authority is Sale-Title 32 Chapter 7, and the row cites NA (RS 2353 43 USC 672). Accession 1146393 has this one location row, and the source reports 40.0000 acres for it.
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.
