A note on Warrants. My gggrandfather, Asa Entrekin, was a noted wagon maker in Wheatfield Township. He aquired a total of 440 acres of land in Wheatfield township by making a custom made wagon and trading it for a warrant. The amounts were always 40 acres or 80 acres and the warrants were dated from 1837 to 1852 Phil Entrekin polkamood@aol.com wrote: were these for Civil War soldiers? I had never heard of this...thanks, Laverne Moody, CA -----Original Message----- From: Kate Rogers To: ILCLINTO-L@rootsweb. com ; Ilclinto@Rootsweb.
