Typically, however, each entry in this index contains the name of the claimant, who is usually the veteran, the state of service, the rank held, the date of the record, and the acreage. Unlike the federal bounty land records, however, these state records are not centralized; instead, they are found in the various states in the form of manuscript records and printed books and are all but inaccessible to the researcher. Altogether about 35,000 names appear in the index, including duplicates. The nine states that awarded bounty lands in their western reserves or on their western borders (directly affecting the future states of Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Ohio, and Tennessee) are Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Virginia. p>After the Revolutionary War, nine state governments awarded land bounties to their Revolutionary War veterans (or their survivors) in return for their military or other service.

There are many labeled diagrams throughout the text and useful charts in the manual. The little sister Tara, who is being chased by the Dark Fae along with Kayla, has but a hand full of scenes. Now I understand why they moved where and when they did.. DELECIOUS!. On the surface the children's home is more than they could have ever wished for but soon they learn that not everything is quite as it seems.I found the world building in this book to be well done. One minute waxed, the next curls? Ripped off panty, putting back on said ripped panty? Then to add insult to injury, a rushed ending that left more questions than answers. Each story was written by a different author and each good in its own way. Next time I'll take the first suggestion and get under the desk. There are certain ways to do things and so many sellers think they know the answers not because of research bu
