Humboldt Co. Land
Grants This will be an ongoing
project of retrieving the Humboldt County Land Grants from the
Bureau of Land Management and having the land grants housed
permanently on Humboldt County IAGenWeb. The first section
completed is listed as 1850-1855 but there are no land grants
previous to 1855 as I have searched by township and range in the
state prior to that time.
Land Grants
1859 began a huge land rush so it will be done by
quarter year or monthly if necessary.
The Land Grant
office begins at Fort Des Moines in the earliest times and moves to
Fort Dodge.
The following are the townships of pre 1900. Corinth now lies where Springvale did except that Springvale does have a tiny bit
south of Humboldt City. I have included the major town within the townships.
