Someone mentioned the BLM site was down. I found that also. Is it temporary? I read about some governmental litigation involving security related to land claims. In any case, could you post the site address you use. If a lookup is available I would love to find out if Alexander Hamilton who arrived in OR in 1849-1852 made a land claim. Thanks for any help. Helen

Helen: Do you recognize the name Salathial Hamilton? That name appears on one BLM map in 1860 that I've indexed from the BLM maps on my site. T27sR6w, Sec 5 and Sec 8 Claim # 49 Not. # 3648. That's in southern Oregon near the Umpqua River.
