United States Land Index Patents for Greene COunty
List of United States Land Patents Transcribed
At present I am trying to get data for these pages. So far I have a few transcriptions for land patents. As time permits I will try to get back to the land bureau site and get more - if you have any to share with others please submit them.
Land was usually sold for under $2 per acre, was frequently sold at public auction, and could be purchased on an installment basis. Land patents were issued by the United States government when the total purchase price had been paid. Frequently, the documents recorded at the land offices included the purchaser's "outside of Indiana" residence. These patents are found at the Bureau of Land Management and the patent certificates can be viewed online and printed off from there also.
These are the only patents thus far transcribed
