Comments on the location information

  • County name is Jefferson. However, original lat/long plots 2.6 km inside adjacent Broadwater county. Original coordinates were: lat/long NAD27 46-30-30N 111-45-15W (46.5083 -111.7542); UTM N5150587 E442138 Z12N; PLSS line# 1: Meridian- Montana Principal, TWNSHP 009 N, RNG 002 W, Sect 27, Sect_fract <blank>. PLSS coords translate to 46.507 -111.841, about 2.5 km inside Jefferson county. Reference will be difficult to check so the PLSS coords were used to move the longitude about 5 minutes west to -111.841.
