    2. Att: Derrick and Harris County. First Derrick , Thank you for helping me find the McDaniel's Driveway, we talked to Grace McDaniels and also Mrs. McDaniels the Post Mistress. We found Deloach Road , Alabama Road, Milner's Road. We followed your directions and found most of what we were looking for. Now, My gr gr grandpapa owned land in 1827-1840 in Harris County near the Talbot line that he had won in the 1827 Land Lottery. He won almost a thousand acres . About eight hundred acres was in Harris County. Yesterday we were looking for what is now call District 94. He owned 202 1/2 acres around Shiloh. the roads around his land was between N. Porter Road, Deloach and McDaniel Roads. Okay........when you go up Highway 85N and Alt 27 just before you get to the Y and it becomes 85 W to the left and Alt 17 to the right going to Manchester. Now, right before you get to the split which looks like a Y , Left to Warm Springs and right to Manchester, just before the Y is an old road that looks like it might have been and old dirt road paved, to the right left side of Highway 85N and Alt 27. Does anyone know if this unmark road might have been once called the McDaniel Road years and years ago? McDaniel Road is on the maps from the Court House and the Hamilton Library. Does anyone remember where this road that is on the Harris County maps but yet it isn't marked on the Highway? My maps show me that once you go down this McDaniel Road this isn't marked, you will then be one the land my gr gr grandpapa owned in 1827-1840, before he sold it and moved to Mississippi. I just want to visit the land he owned. The other land he owned was at exit 25 exit at Highway 116, where the Interstate goes thru the land he owned. Right thru the middle of his 202 1/2 acres. When he bought it in 1827 it was known as District 20 , Lot #157. it is now been change to District #26. Back to McDaniel Road. Does anyone know if that road is still safe to go down and where it leads to? Thanks for your help. Derrick , again Thank you. Sandra maiden name Waldrop Muscogee County, Georgia
