Correction: In the below message I said Howard Community was in Harris County, but I reread Virginia's message and Howard Commuity is in Taylor County, Georgia. I am sorry for the mistake. Sandra Hi Lee, Thank you so much for your help.  Altho it helps, it makes it a bit more confusing. So as the Captains name's changed, so did the Captain 's District. I've have wonderful instructions as to how visit Harris County and maps from Virginia Crilly.  Virginia wrote me that Howard was a community in Harris County. I am trying to  pin Howard down so I will know where the Land (1827) might have been.  I am trying to zero in on my gr grandpapa's land and Virginia Crilly has gone above and beyond her duty. Rex2 of Harris County has been a great help also with his knowledge of Harris County. There are no maps with Howard Community, I wonder if  anyone remembers  Howard Community in Harris. Thank you for your reply and helping me. Sandra maiden name Waldrop Geoergia
