My NC map only shows rivers. My land deed from 1851 states "east of Guys Creek, near the mouth of Shingle Branch." This was a sale of land from the heirs of Henry Hoover, who died before 1850. My gggrandfather, Monroe Hoover, was one of the heirs. > > > ==== NCLINCOL Mailing List ==== > ==== LINCOLN Co., NC Mailing List ==== > Sharing information on Historic Lincoln Co., NC > For further info, see www.rootsweb.com/~nclincol/nclincoln.htm > Our thanks to RootsWeb for hosting this list and web page > >
