Q: Found my 4th great-grand fathers land patent from 1815. This land may be part of "state game property"..? Was told to
check Title records from 1795 to present, to see if there may be a claim to this family property..?
Crawford county, PA.
A: Not sure of your question. But if you feel it is important, hire a competent attorney to run a Title Search for at least 225 years. It will involve alot of inexact legal descriptions and questionable derivations of title. I suggest you start with a search back about 50 years to start with, as that will probably tell you the exact status of your Family's Title.
