David when will the Grant County Wisconsin census records be out? interested in Mary Dvorak and Frank and Joseph and Vandy in 1930....great grandpa Vencil was gone by then so not looking for him John Dvorak ----- Original Message ----- From: David W. Taft To: WIGRANT-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 10:33 PM Subject: [WIGRANT] BLM Land Records Back On-Line Hi All, Just wanted you to know that the Bureau of Land Management land patent record site if finally back on line. It was down for months due to a court order because of vulnerabilities to hacking or something of Indian Trust records. The web site it: http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/ It's a great place to locate when/where your ancestors may have purchased land from the Government. Many, but not all states are indexed and have scanned images available. Note: This site/index does not include private land sales. Be sure and review the "Search Tip" if you have names with troublesome spellings and the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) for all of the basics. You can view and print copies of many of the original patents. They offer "certified copies," but they are really no different than what you can print on-line. But, they are embossed and printed on your choice of paper. The site has a whole new look. Guess they had time to re-design it while they were out of order.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/lEC.2ACE/394 Message Board Post: I am looking for information about the following Logues: Addom James, James, Jacob B, Adella B., and Della. Addom James and Catharne Logue were the parents of Jacob B.Logue who was born in Pennsylvania. Adella B. Logue's parents were James and Catharne Logue. Adella was born 1867 in Muscoda, Wisconsin. Are Addom James and James Logue the same person? Who were the other members of their families? The 1900 census lists Adella Logue and Noma Logue as living with LeRoy and Mary Hoyt in Muscoda, WI. Because of their ages Adella and Noma may be mother and daughter. Both were cousins of Mary Hoyt. Adella married Charles Wallace 4 July, 1906 in Toma, WI. Della Logue is thought to have been born in Muscoda, WI in 1867. She grew up in, or near, Muscoda, WI. The names of her parents are unknown. She had a daughter Ruth Naomi Logue born in 1883. Ruth Naomi was related to the Hoyts. Della married a Charles Wallace. Because of the parallels between Adella and Della I am wondering if they are the same person.
