Summary

This record represents aliquot part 35N13W24NWSW in the Michigan PLSS state layer. It is the smallest current survey-geometry unit held by the project and the resolution at which a future GLO patent or tract-book record is most likely to identify land.

Survey and ownership limits

The quarter-quarter polygon can be joined to its federal section and, when the township/range sheet is held, to the corresponding GLO plat. It does not say who owned the land. The source’s OWNERSHIP field is a categorical layer value, not a person, company, deed, or patent. A future ownership assertion must cite a patent, deed, tax roll, or equivalent transactional record.

Current join targets

Federal section: PLSS section 24, MI190350N0130W0
Held GLO plat: GLO survey plat: T35N R13W

Open questions

Can a GLO patent, tract book, deed, or county assessment record be joined to this aliquot-part identifier?
Does the legal description in any current parcel record subdivide or combine this aliquot part?
