Is anyone on this list currently interested in the Bannister River area of what is now Halifax County (formerly Lunenburg)? I am interested especially in the Caldwells and their neighbors. Carmen J. Finley Santa Rosa, CA

I am primarily interested in the early Birch Creek area and have entered a number of deeds in the Western part of Halifax County. In checking my Halifax file, I found two mentions of "David Caldwell" - one as attorney for William Byrd in a transaction and one in connection with a tract on Elkhorn Creek. I have not been able to place the tracts - apparently I am spatially challenged! Grin.

Hi Fellow Mappers I have been plotting Land Grants in Old Rowan and Iredell Counties. An Attorney, David Caldwell had at least two large tracts and some smaller tracts in these counties. One was about 7,800 acres and the other was nearly 4,500 acres.

On the bottom of http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncburke/landgrnt.htm, a map shows the Land Grants plotted by Dr. Robert McNeely with DeedMapper. They follow the Catawba River, going as far west as the present town of Catawba. I'm sure we could probably fill in the map with help. --Derick At 11:35 AM 3/9/03 -0500, Wendell Krikham wrote: >Hi Fellow Mappers > >I have been plotting Land Grants in Old Rowan and Iredell Counties.
