I have a favor to ask of this list. There are three of us who share the Revolutionary era couple of Silas P and Phebe Wooten. We are spending this week trying to organize what we do know and what we hope to find. My project for this morning is to look at the friends and neighbors of this family to see where they were living before they moved to Eastern KY. Silas and Phebe lived on George's Creek which would have been in Mason county if they arrived before 1800 and Floyd County from then until about 1821. It is now in Lawrence County, but very close to the Johnson County border (this county was formed about 1843. Here is a list of who I suspect to be friends and family because of intermarriage,etc: Ward, Williamson, Statts/Stotts, Borders, Jordan, Justice, Castle, Anderson, Bannister, Burgess, Chapman, Bowen, Adams, Pack, Ooten, If you can identify the location any of these families before their move to Eastern KY, would you please do so via this mail list. I would appreciate your indicating what your "proof" of prior location is if you are giving me more than a guess. Add any family names that you research that you know were in the general area....and I am OK with other counties if you will identify the county. I will then try to make some sort of summary to the list in return. Thanks so much for your help on this project. Marsha Moses in WV

Depends on which Pack you have listed. Samuel Pack was in Monroe Co and Summers Co. WV. See the History of Monroe Co, WV. George Pack was in Lord Dunmore's War and a signer of the papers creating Giles Co. VA. George Pack and wife 2 Elizabeth Brown lived near [Charley] Tom's Creeks on George Creek. Mitchell Hall in his books on Johnson Co Kentucky, has a list of people on water courses for that time frame. Ancestry.com has some of his volumns available. There are 4 volumns. They also were in Montgomery Co. Wolf Creek, Montgomery Co. John V. Borders according to what I found was also in Giles Co., VA, he married a Sellards there. Good Luck with your search. Hard to find where people were at in those early years.
