Patti: I think the reference is okay but perhaps the label is a bit
misleading. I worked off and on with these BLM people.
It was common (even though we were the Federal Government) to identify the
Dept. of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management office that managed a group
of state (related) records to refer to it as "the BLM state office". Yes,
BLM issues public land patents.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Cash entry files in SourceWriter
I wanted to enter a cash entry land file that I got from the National
Archives but I think are considered GLO records. When I look at the
drop-down menu for options to choose from for GLO>>Land & Property
records>cash entry files, I see only options for CD/DVD databases or FHL.
Then under "Land grants, I see Land & Property records>land grants>state
land office records for public lands> basic format. That would seem
right except that I didn't think they were "state" land offices. I
thought the land offices were under the jurisdiction of the federal
government, not the state. Is there another way, I should be doing
this?
