Jay;
In my opinion and what I have been taught;
If you have an abstract that shows un-clouded transfer of title from the original patentee to you then you are in great shape.
A friend of mine has an abstract that was researched and assembled by a professional service inwhich reads;
Note: This is a partial abstract. All instrument recorded after the date of the paten at Number 2 (Number 1 being the paten its self), but prior to the recording date of the deed at number 3, have been omitted hereafter.
Now, what good is this abstract? None it shows NO CONECTION TO THE PATEN.
The reason this is done is self evident as the break or cloud impairs my friend from asserting his rights as spelled out upon the face of the paten as an assignee.
The un-clouded connection to the paten is a superior title to a “Quick Claim Deed” and the “Declaration of assign’s update of Land Paten” is unnecessary.
If I was to prepare to challenge the township, county, state, and fed, I would first ask all of the same question, and it should be preformed through an Notary so to have an impartial 3rd party witness to what was sent and what an when they replied;
“By what authority does the (entity you are sending the document to) rely upon to impose any jurisdiction over the land commonly known as (the land description).
Please respond to the Paten Holder in care of (your notary’s posting location) within 33 days or the Paten Holder will except your silence as an admission of NO JURISTICTION over the portion of land commonly known as (the land description) covered by Land Paten recorded at liber book number, page number in the office of the (where the land records are kept) for the county of (the county your land is located within) within the state of (your state spelled out), and by the failure to respond is the (township, county, or states) waver of any and all rights within said land(s).

I hope you get an idea from the example that something like I would send, this is only an example and not concise, so it needs to be wrote in your words to fit your issue.
