Numbers, Transaction Type, Warraniee's Name, Multiple Patentees, Remarks, Description Part Number, Twp and Range. These do not include patents issued after 30 June 1908, when the new record keeping program began in the General Land Office. If a transaction was canceled it will most likely not be included in the book. I have one on Crawford, Washington, and Carroll Co. of Arkansas. I am going to get one on Franklin Co.

Time frame would be about 1826 - 1840. Counties would probably be Washington and Crawford.
