Happy Holidays all..........and darn Bud...a question like where is everyone filled my mailbox:/ I do have a question for the list. Robert Haws took out a land grant in 1803. The location of the grant was described as "Beaver Creek at the Sandy River". I have looked over a number of maps and the only thing I can come up with is near Prestonburg, Floyd County. Later in 1815 Robert is lic. to operate a ferry from his land across the Sandy River? Again... I am confused. My ggggg grandfather (Samuel Sr.) took out his land grants in 1784 & 1785 Fayette, later Mason, later Fleming and finally Lawrence County on the Southern most branch of the Licking River. His oldest two sons John and Samuel were very near to each other at the present day Lawrence/Johnson County line where Hwy. 23 runs between the counties. Census records show their neighbors to have been the Salyers, Mann's, Daniels and LeMasters to mention a few. By description, the property almost sounds like it was near the May House? Any ideas? Hope this question will keep Bud busy as he rattled my cage...
