Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | When the United States acquired North Dakota, most of the land became part of the public domain. The federal government administered the land through the General Land Office. Available land was surveyed into townships and transferred to private ownership through a process called land entry. The first General Land Office was established at Pembina in 1870. The local land offices kept tract books (recording transactions for each section of land), and township plats (maps of land entries for each township). |
