    3. Jim, When you buy property in Missouri you should have an Abstract Company run an abstract on the property you are buying to make sure no one else has claim, or a deed wasn't transferred etc. They go back and check every owner of the property since it was built and sold the first time. It can be quite expensive, the last time I had one ran it cost $50 per page. Some people take the chance and don't run an abstract. Some people will not buy unless one is run. You can require the seller to do this as a condition of the sale. It used to be a requirement or a Real Estate Co would not sell the property. I have seen Abstracts, 50 pages long.

    3. Federal land patent records for Missouri are available on the BLM web site: http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/ The MO State Archives also has an index and land sale records. Individual county deed records are also filmed for many counties and available at the archives. Ken > > Hi DeVere, > > > > > > where did you get a copy of the Missouri Government Land Grant?
