For those of you who may not have used this site before, once you find your ancestor, be sure to do a search on the legal description (twp, range, section, etc.) to see who the neighbors were. I have found family that I didn't even know lived in a certain county where I was looking for someone else. In a few cases, they came to the state together and purchased land and then moved on before the big census years. This is certainly one of my 'standard' sites!
