	This certificate uses the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Land_Survey_System\| Public Land Survey System]] (PLSS) to describe the location of the homestead. PLSS starts from a reference point--in this case, Nebraska's Principal Meridian ([[http://maps.google.com/maps?q=40.001944,-97.368889(Sixth+Principal+Meridian)&ie=UTF8&ll=40.001944,-97.368889&spn=0.017884,0.038581&z=15\| 40.001944N,97.368889W]]). Centered at this point, PLSS establishes a grid of land parcels that measure 6 miles by 6 miles. Each of these parcels is divided into 36 "sections" (which are numbered). Each section is further divided into quarter-sections (e.g., "the northwest quarter section")'.

Within this region, Section 6 is the northwestern-most 1x1 mile section, and Gustaf was in the northwest quarter-section.
