Surnames: Holt, Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/oAB.2ACE/971.1084.2.1 Message Board Post: My ancestor Doswell/Dauswell Holt did own land on Potter's Creek in Cumberland County, KY. He was born in 1790 in Hawkins County (then NC, now TN) His family moved to Knox/Whitley County KY on the KY/TN border. They lived on Marsh Creek at that time. Doswell moved his family to Cumberland County, KY and died there in 1840. His wife and children migrated to the Harrison AR area. I don't recognize the names you mentioned. Noah "Bud" Holt was born in AR in 1864. Jan
