I tried this out, and this is a great site for giving you a fairly close
idea of where a piece of land was at if you have the Township/Range/Section
information. For the location I tested this with in Arkansas, the location
this web site gave was only 1/4 mile off from the actual location as shown
on the USGS Topological Map for the area. Given how difficult it is to map
from arbitrary T/R/S value to latitude/longitude, I thought that was pretty
good!
