We are looking for the location of Lanes Mill, reportedly in McDonald county. Thanks for the response. The only John Lane land patent I could find in that 3 county area is in NE1/4, NE/1,4 Sec. 10, T. 22N, R. 34W, which is McMillen township. It is in this area: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&ll=36.66151,-94.58506&spn=0.00141,0.00235&t=h&z=19&iwloc=addr http://msrmaps.com/map.aspx?t=2&s=12&lon=-94.58506&lat=36.66151&opt=1 Erie Goodman Township is 11.1 miles ENE of there, and Erie McNatt Township is 13.56 miles ENE of there. All on the places above are in McDonald county.

Lane's mill was at the home site, it would be Erie Twp., McDonald CO., MO. I do not live there and can't? remember much from my childhood there. So I have no idea where Erie Twp. was. Hopefully someone there can help us locate this place. > Loretta
