According to this chart, if you were looking for an individual by the name of Abraham McDaniel, he may possibly be on page 351. Find the letter “Mc” in bold and at the top of the chart.

If you were looking for an individual by the name of Michael McDaniel, follow the same procedure. However, look the page number next to the normal letter "M". The search should begin on page 362.
Once you find the page the individual may be listed on, go to the designated page. You will notice that the names are not in strict alphabetical order. You will need to look through the entire column. They are recorded somewhat in chronological order. However, it is not unusual in the early indexes to find land entries for the 1820s mixed in with the 1850s.
