Samuel Harris on 11-11-1783 enters 300 acres on or near watercourse listed as branch of Rock Lick Creek, entered in book#10 page 261 of Virginia Grants, Jefferson Co, Ky. I think this is Samuel Harris Jr, son of Samuel and Suzanna (Mayhew) Harris. James Harris, brother to Samuel Jr, shows 400 acres on Cedar Creek just north of Elizabethtown in 1784 at this time it was still Jefferson Cty. 1783 James enters 150 acres on Bear Creek just a few miles southeast of Litchfield, which is in Grayson Cty today. Stephen Harris also a brother of Samuel Jr and James enters 300 acres on Lick Creek, west of Bardstown, Ky, which is in Nelson Cty today. Other land allotments for Samuel Sr's family are located at: http://www.statelib.lib.in.us/www/ihb/resources/landallottments.html Here you will find allotments for Samuel Sr, Samuel Jr, James, and John Maline Harris (this is actually John Mayhue Harris, just misspelled). This is Jefferson County land allotments for early settlers: http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/ky/jefferson/court/land/1782land.txt Here is listed James, Ruth, John Mayhue, and their mother, Susannah Harris. I do not know the locations of Ruth and Susannah's property! From the information I have now, I think the Harris fork of Rock Lick Creek was named for Samuel Harris, Jr. If any local historians or geneaolgists can add information or change my perspective on this, please let me know. Need to have more information on these Harris' families. Thanks, Mike Lamb Searching for the history of naming the Harris Fork of Rock Lick Creek. Located on page 47 E-6 of Delorme Kentucky Atlas. Today this is in Breckenridge County, but originally would have been Jefferson, then Nelson, then Hardin and last Breckenridge County. Located close to the town of Vanzant. Thanks Mike Lamb
