I found good use of this tool to get a current town name for the land where my great-grandfather originally homesteaded in Montana:

The tool may also be helpful in determining more exact locations of properties (city or otherwise) that no longer exist, but for which an old map shows a location. Keep in mind you can use coordinates to locate properties via Google Earth.
Try the tool here.
