[or-roots] Andrew L. Clearkin, Grant Co., OR 1906

[CARROLLOUC at aol.com]

I am looking for any information on Andrew L(ewis) Clearkin, b Sept. 1861, 
Roanoke Co., VA, died ? probably in Grant Co., Oregon. He purchased a land 
patent of 160 acres, 11/19/1906 in Grant Co. He lived previously in Baker City from 
about 1898. Coordinates from the BLMGLO site are as follows:

1. ALIQUOIT PARTS, N1/2NW; SEC/BLOCK, 15/ ; TWNSHIP, 12-S ; RANGE, 32E; 
WILLAMETTE MERIDIAN, COUNTY, GRANT STATE, OREGON.

2. HEADINGS AS ABOVE:  SENW; 15/ ; 12-S ; 32-E ; ETC.,

3. NESW; 15/ ; 12-S ; 32-E; ETC.

BLM SERIAL #: ORLGAA 086662

Why there are three seperate coordinates for one patent are a little 
confusing. Can anyone tell me just where this is in Grant, what town might be, or was, 
close by?

I am assuming Andrew died in Grant but can find no information re: date or 
burial site. His wife was named Mabel but I do not know if he had children as I 
haven't been able to locate him in the 1910 census. Perhaps if I knew where in 
Grant he lived I would have better luck.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
