John and anyone else who is interested, I've begun working on the Clermont County land patents. The first step is to find out all the potential zip codes, as it looks as if this is the only way to do it. Just wanted ya'll to know so our work isn't duplicated. I've looked up all the zip codes for towns in Clermont County and will now begin to search the land patents. Maybe if we all take pieces of this, it'll not seem so daunting a task!! ---Susan in Chattanooga -----Original Message----- From: John Tippet <johndoetippet@csi.com> To: BEHYMER-L@rootsweb.com <BEHYMER-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Saturday, January 16, 1999 10:58 AM Subject: Land Patents >I just discovered a fantastic web site that you should all know about. >Point your browser to: http://www.glorecords.blm.gov There you will find a >searchable database of original government land patents for several states, >including Ohio, Virginia and Illinois.
