I've finally figured out how to find Donation Land Claims...then find out
where they are located. To find out if your ancestor/anybody was the
recipient of a donation land claim, go to:

http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/patentSearch/

And type in their name. When the name comes up, see where it says "Printer
Friendly"...click on that and print out the description of the DLC.

THEN, go to:

http://www.esg.montana.edu/gl/index.htm

And, type in the Township, Range and Section...and a GREAT description will
come up so you can find it...you can even click on the maps that will give
you honest to goodness Satellite (sp?) pictures of the land.
