I own the quarter section that my maternal grandfather filed to homestead on in either 1886 or 1887. I'd have to look at the patent to see which year it is dated. Anyway, around 124 years. I, too, am third generation for ownership of it.
My sister-in-law owns the homestead of the aunt and uncle that raised my dad after his parents died, which we tend to think of as grandparents although they never adopted him. That would make it 124 years as it was filed on in 1886.
My sister-in-law and I both cash rent our properties to the great grandson of the family that hosted our family until a dug out home could be readied, about two weeks. Hence the two families having associated with each other for 124 years as friends and neighbors. This fellow purchased my great grandfathers homestead quarter when it was sold off by other relatives.
This aforementioned land is all in Ness County, Kansas.
