Hoosier Originals

A recent Land Patent Search turned up some interesting results. I found the original land purchase when William McCullough moved to Indiana from Tennessee in 1837. Family always said they were from the Brazil, Indiana area, which is partly true but the land is actually in Putnam county. William purchased up to five patents and two of his sons, West and Thomas bought more just down the road.
It was also interesting to google map the location and see what it looks like now. Martin Van Buren is listed as the US President on the document and Millard Fillmore on some of the others. so it looks like the McCulloughs have been Hoosiers almost since the beginnning.
