Gene, Looks to me as if those three areas were in Haywood County from 1820 until Jackson County was formed in 1851. There may be a bit of Macon County included but it's hard to tell exactly. But the majority of land you are looking for was definitely in Haywood for those 31 years. Hope this is helpful. Sincerely, James M.
