Thanks to everyone who replied. It all was a great help. I truly appreciate the explantions. Here are some items I recieved. ------------------------------------- A section is 640 acres or a square with 80 acres on a side. This would also be a square mile. The description is shown below: _________________________________ | | | | | | | NE Π| NW Π| | | | | | | | |________|________| | | | | | NW Π| NE Π| |_________________|________________| | | | | | | | Section 10 | | | | | |_________________________________| Township and Range are just divisions of property (larger) and would show on any property map. Hope this helps. Jess Bettis Austin, Texas ---------------------------------------------------- I have a map of Clark County, AL which shows the ranges and townships, but I am sorry to say that I do not have one for Marengo County. I can tell you that the land you are looking for is in Marengo County and should be around 3 miles north of the county line and near Nicholsville.
