Jason,

Section 2 in Township 17N, Range 9W is located a few miles north of Brockwell, which is a few miles
north of Melbourne. Immediately as you leave Brockwell, going north, Hwy. 9 runs through the western
half of Section 2.

However, keep in mind that each section includes 640 acres, which can be broken down into 16
different 40 acre plots, so you would have to have the rest of the land calls to be able to pinpoint
where, exactly, in Section 2 this land is located. Rest of the land calls would look something like:
SW 1/4 NW 1/4, which gives the section location of 40 acres. This example would mean: the southwest
quarter of the northwest quarter of a particular section, in a particular township and range.

You can get the rest of the land calls, as well as print out a copy of the actual land document, at:
http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/

Also, there is a countly plat book available in Melbourne for $20-30 that will help you pinpoint
land locations. To order one, contact the:

Izard County Conservation District
P.O. Box 276
Melbourne, AR 72556
