Your ancestry doens't have anything to do with the Land Patent unless you are a direct heir of the original Patentee.



What link are you referring to? Is this step by step spelled out in the forums? I'm not sure what you are talking about.



There are 2 things required to assert rights in the Land Patent. 1) Possession; and 2) Chain of "ownership"/title/possession. See the Summa Corp. case for more details -- or check the "Land Patent" doc in the download section for the case cites and holdings.
