    There are paid versions for converting different grids e.g. (Earthpoint).

    The issue of grids is very complex and way beyond the average  layperson's requirements unless you need to know how to get your data plotted accurately and meaningfully.

    Google earth doesn't appear to support NAD27 coords in options.  There don't appear to be many recent posts on this issue.  Maybe GE pro is different.

    The approach I took to locate a known point and compare should actually work if there is enough data and accuracy

    Some links from a very brief google search:

    Link to google earth coord systems WGS84 is similar to NAD83 but is different to NAD27


    NAD27 means North American Datum 1927

    Grid conversion tool with the following discussion of conversions!!

    Datum conversions between all realizations of NAD27, NAD83, and WGS84 are not practical, or sometimes not strictly possible. Many of the issues are associated with the inability to convert between the original realization of NAD83 and more recent realizations. While error could be reduced by introducing an intermediate HARN conversion, separate transformations would have to be implemented for each state, which significantly increases the complexity of the application. Therefore datum conversions include a few built-in assumptions:
    1. Conversions between NAD27 and NAD83. This converts between NAD27 and NAD83(1986) using the NADCON transformation. Newer realizations of NAD83, such as NAD83(CORS96) and NAD83(2011) can differ from NAD83(1986) by a meter or so. This conversion uses the Esri transformation NAD_1927_To_NAD_1983_NADCON.
    2. Conversions between NAD27 and WGS84. Basically this just applies the NADCON transformation from NAD27 to NAD83(1986). NAD83(1986) is the original realization of NAD83, which is practically identical to the original WGS84. The difference between the current realization of WGS84 used by GPS and the original realization of WGS84 typically is on the order of 1 meter. This conversion uses the Esri transformation NAD_1927_To_WGS_1984_79_CONUS.
    3. Conversions between NAD83 and WGS84. This converts between NAD83(CORS96) and WGS84(G1150), which is equivalent to ITRF00. The transformation parameters match those published by the NGS in "Transforming Positions and Velocities between the International Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2000 and North American Datum of 1983". These realizations typically are very close (within a few centimeters) to the current datums used by the GPS system and CORS stations. This conversion uses the Esri transformation WGS_1984_ITRF00_To_NAD_1983_CORS96.
    4. Conversions that use the same datum. These conversions only perform coordinate system transformations; no datum transformation is defined. Therefore the datum of the output coordinates will be the same as the input coordinates.
