Find Ancestors Land Records with BLM and Google Earth (VIDEO)

I’ve created a little video for you that shows you how to take the results from your search at the BLM-GLO website and view them live in Google Earth!! I show you how to take the township and range information, input it into a conversion tool and voila – instant map of your ancestor’s land! You can then create a whole file of these land records in Google Earth and save the maps as part of your research. I hope you enjoy the video and please share the link with others if you did

Here are the websites you will need:
