Summary

The General Land Office issued this patent to DANIEL C GALLAGHER on 30 June 1906, out of the Marquette land office. The land is T38N R10W Section 32 NENW38N10W32NWNE on the Michigan Meridian (19) once the description is normalised. Its authority is Homestead EntryOriginal, and the row cites May 20, 1862 (12 Stat. 392). Accession MI3320__.189 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 1906, 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 DANIEL C GALLAGHER beyond this spelling?
  • Can a tract book or a field note place this description inside a quarter-quarter rather than the whole section?
