Deed Book MM p293 has records where a Mary Henkins sold a tract of land known as the Ore Bank tract to a Wright Gatewood in 1833. Is Wright Gatewood one of your ancestors? If interested, I have the names of the people who owned property next to the Henkins property. Researching Mary ( Supinger) Henkins (1776-aft. 1836) & husband, George Henkins (1771-bef. 1833).
