    3. Linda.. I don't understand what you are really looking for. I live here in Lexington and I can help if I knew what you were trying to find. The Church/School is gone - burnt down in 1925, so there is no Church to find. David Donahue read the cemetery - so did a couple of other people, it is online. We know the location of where the cemetery and church/school were NORTH on 104.. Right on Black Bottom Road etc. Here is the entire list of who is buried there. http://www.tngenweb.org/records/henderson/cemeteries/prospect2.htm David was a very thorough, precise type of person -- he recorded everything he saw - and described the area. I could probably find it again - but I wouldn't find anything new.. (Not anytime soon though - abandoned cemeteries way out in the woods harbor every snake known to mankind and we seem to have them all here) Chris LFLENT@aol.com wrote: Gene, thank you, re: "Where I found Prospect Church is about 5-6 miles due east of Juno. The Black bottom creek mentioned flows into the northwest branch of Beech Lake." I will pass information along to my genealogy colleague who is helping me with map reading. He has a topography map of area where our mutual ancestors had their land grants in 1840's. We are hoping to find this Prospect Church that Judge J.H. Denison wrote about. We are looking for the graves of eight of our ancestors in this area. My colleague is No. Ca and I am in So. Ca so we have to rely on help from this list and my contacts in Lexington. Even though I was born in Lexington, my family left there when I was about 3 years old so I don't really know the area. Thanks again. Linda, So.
