Bounty Land Warrant 507--Wm Harrison

In the pension records for William Harrison's Revolutionary War Service the Bounty Land Warrant is listed as 507.  I searched for a William Harrison with the # 507 at Ancestry in their Bounty Land Warrant database

Searched the GLO website and found it.  Still trying to figure out what all this info tells me.  Need to learn more about land records so I will be checking out a few webinars in the Legacy FamilyTree Webinar library, doing some reading and further exploring of GLO.
