Default Township and Range in Google Earth

Is there a way that I can punch in a DLS survey description in Google Earth and pull it up on the map? I'm thinking there is some kind of feature but I have been unsuccessful thus far. Is there some kind of add on? I have the legal description of some properties but no long and lat which is all that Google seems to use.

I have only done this the other way around, but this site might help.

Otherwise there might be some alternatives here.

It's not google earth, but it is google maps and it gives you the coordinates in the results.
