    1. [AR IND.] Land Records
    2. Elmer T. Anderson
    3. Need a brief education on Land Records. Have an IndepCo record that lists land for what may be my gg grandfather, plus other land that could have been owned by two of his sons. But, I do not know how to establish the approximate location of the land. For example, William C. Anderson is listed as having 80 acres. It is section # 35. Under "T," it says 11N and 7W under "R." For the date, it says 1859/07. Can someone define T (township ??), R and what the 07 after the year means. And, most important, about where the land was located. My Grandfather William was a blacksmith, also had a farm and lived "outside" of Cord (Blackriver Township), I think toward Walnut Grove since that's the post office address listed on the census records. Thanks very much. Thurman Anderson.
