I should have mention a mapping site that I like to use a lot. The USGS National Mapping Information site has a great query feature: http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnispublic/f?p=116:1:17608539488834603008::NO::: Query for Indian Creek in Nicholas co., KY gives this result: http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnispublic/f?p=116:3:17608539488834603008::NO::P3_FID:494935 Looks like Indian Creek runs just north of Cynthiana in Harrison county, as well as Nicholas county. You can click on the links in the "Mapping Services" in the box on the right and get different kinds of maps displayed.

After Hezekiah Smith and Mary Ann Rector married, they moved "to Mason County, Kentucky, near May's Lick, Bluelicks, Nicholas County, Kentucky, on a farm on Indian Creek."

Looking for information on John Cahill. Married Eleanor Butts in Cuplpepper, VA in 1795 and died 10-31-1812 in Mason, Co, KY in 1812. He was a mounted volunteer for KY in 1812 and mustered out of St. Marys (OH I presume). All I can find is that he served about a month with the Volunteers commanded by Capt. Charles Ward in the regiment commanded by Col. Richard M. Johnson. He enlisted in August for only a 1 month term. He died in October of the same year, 1812. This info I found in a copy of an application for bounty land in Franklin, Co. MO in 1851 signed by Eleanor. In this application, she had to state when her husband served and his death year. What I would really like to find is: John's cause of death, burial place and his parentage. I am most willing to pay someone for time and postage. Please constact me directly at arnola@fidnet.com
