I was searching through Jefferson Co on Cyndi's website and ran across this
page with Jefferson County Hoosier Homestead Awards on it. Can some one
tell me what it is about? One of my relatives was listed; KONKLE, William
and Mary. The Homestead date was Feb 6, 1830 and the award was given Aug 2,
1985. What does this mean? That the family still has the original
homestead? I am courious just to find out why these people got an award for
homesteading.
