Do you know where the property was located? I took the Township, Range and Section identifiers from the BLM site, to another site to find the property. Then to the Terra Server.
Hopefully this link will work to the Terra Server will work. IF it doesn't I'll give you the instructions:

You may have to enlarge the map to the largest block for size and go to Topo versus Aerial.
Now in the map, do you see Coonrad Hill? Actually, I grew up in the red block holding the word "Creek" just above the block holding the word Coonrad. Now, in the middle of that block, you'll see a red "31". That is section 31. Move two red blocks to the right and that will be section 33. Perry Lake is in Section 32. Now, click in the center of that Section 33. Now, do it again. You'll see the red "33" now. The purple line, I believe is an old road.
