Thanks, Edgar for running this list of surnames of forts. Do you know where any further information can be secured on some of them? Snodgrass, Davidson are of great family interest while Chadwell Station in Lee county by the Cumberland Gap Historical Park has a 1794 connection. Any hints will be appreciated. Jim "Edgar A.
