    1. Bruce land grants in Kentucky
    2. Hope the following information will be helpful to somebody. I am especially interested in any information anyone might have about the Bruces who received land grants or warrants in Hopkins County. I am trying to connect them to my ggrandmother, Mahulda Bruce Furgerson. Joyce Kentucky Land Grants The following information was found in the book, The Kentucky Land Grants. This book was found in the Indiana State Library in Indianapolis. The following Bruces received Grants in County Court Orders. I am copying the columns that list, in order, the Grantee, Date of Survey, County and Watercourse. The book also gives the book and page number in which the grant is found as well as the number of acres. Bruce, Kader 11/14/1835 Hopkins Wiers Cr. Bruce, Bennett 7/27/1841 Muhlenberg Cypress Ct.
