Everyone; I think I have answered my own question about the location of Claryville, Kentucky. According to a topographic map/ gazette I found online, Claryville was located on Pond Creek. From previous records on the Potts family, I know that Hiram Potts bought property on Pond Creek, so it is logical that his son would have been born in Claryville - although I had never seen that name before. Any information about the history of the settlement would be of interest. Thanks Ann Bergelt
