Historical note
The Offices of the Secretary of the Treasury and the Register of the Treasury were
responsible for the disposition of the public domain from the time of the establishment
of the Federal Government until 1812. In 1812 the General Land Office was established
as a Bureau with the Treasury Department to superintend and execute all transactions
involving public lands except the work of surveying and mapping. In 1849 the General
Land Office was transferred to the Department of the Interior. The functions of the
Office were to supervise the survey, management, and disposition of the public domain
and generally to execute all laws relating to public lands. In 1946 the General Land
Office was consolidated with the Grazing Service of the Department of the Interior
to form the Bureau of Land Management.
