Nel, Last week I was in Greene and Washington Counties in Tennessee and found a reference to a land grant that was made to an Alexander Beaty and when I came home and looked in my notes under Alexander noticed some possibly disparant information. Without researching it, I can't tell whether a note I have from you regarding land grant in Green County KY on waters of Lick Creek is possibly different from what I found, or what. Here is what I found: In Early East Tennessee Taxpayers, XIV. Greene County, page 160, by Pollyanna Creekmore, the following entry: "page 365 No. 1433, Elizabeth Cameron - 260 acres in Greene County, adjoining Andrew English, Alexander Beaty. Sealed 11 April 1780. " and "page 367 No. 1434, Alexander Beatty - 80 acres on the waters of Lick Creek, adjoing James McBay, James condry. Entered 6 March 1780. Sealed 12 April 1797." Unless you are already aware of this reference, you might want to check it out, to see if it is the same Alexander Beaty. Hope you had a good Memorial Day week-end. Willie
