52 Weeks To Better Genealogy - Challenge 20

I was definitely up for the challenge this week to locate some Bureau of Land Management Records. In less than three minutes, I had three hits on members of my Pecht family.

First up was a land record for Albert B. Pecht in Sundance, Wyoming. He had made full payment for the north half of the northeast quarter and the northeast quarter of the northwest quarter of section nineteen and the southwest quarter of the southeast quarter of section eighteen in township fifty-three north of range sixty-five west of the sixth principal meridian, containing one hundred sixty acres.  This was dated October 15, 1919.

What was that again??

Albert's brother, Sherman Pecht, paid for Section five in Township twenty-one north of Range thirty-two west of the Sixth Principal Meridian, Nebraska, containing six hundred forty and eighty-hundreds acres. This was dated August 21, 1919.

Sherman's son, Clarence Pecht, claimed Section nine in Township twenty-one north of Range thirty-two west of the Sixth Principal Meridian, Nebraska, containing six hundred forty acres. This was dated October 15, 1919.



Now that I have this information, I need to figure out what to do with it!
