James, In 1860/1870 District #11 was around Byrdstown between the Lake and Wolf River, and extending East toward Etter. But I was thinking that Pickett County, though it was not officially established until 1881, had their own census in 1880, with new districts. I'd have to look that up. I know that there were - and are - Huckebys who lived down around Byrdstown. I have this on the George and Rebecca household in 1860: 1860 Census Huckaby Amanda 14 1845-1846 f TN Olympus Dist 11 #67 Huckaby Feriba 16 1843-1844 f TN Olympus Dist 11 #67 Huckaby Armazin 17 1842-1843 f TN Olympus Dist 11 #67 Huckaby Andrew J. 19 1840-1841 m TN Olympus Dist 11 #67 Huckaby George(farmer)54 1805-1806 m NC Olympus Dist 11 #67 Huckaby Rebeccah 55 1804-1805 f TN Olympus Dist 11 #67 I have read that Olympus was located about 6 miles Southwest of where Byrdstown now is, which would mean that it was across the river (Dale Hollow Lake) toward Livingston. That must place it somewhere around the Boom Community, I'm thinking.
