I just started indexing these records and am wondering what to put for the event place.

Several entries have Boise by the dates. The 4th name down lists Boise and Vale, Ore.in the column "by whom patented" . Are these the event place(s), or is it the town that is listed at the top of the page? Or do I mark it blank in this batch since it is not listed at the top of the page.

    I haven't done this project, but the first example in the Project Instructions show not to index the event place from the column "To Whom Patented". Only the second example out of the four show a place name to index. In this batch I'd Blank it.
