Julia, thanks for the response -- this is what I have found -- From my computer mapping program, which might be wrong (some of the river is shown as a straight line) ---- Heads up NE of Lexington in Henderson Co. --sweeps Sough and then loops back North -- Crosses US70 South West of Cedar Grove -- turns South West into Madison County -- turns back North of Jackson -- crosses into Crockett County South West of Humboldt and then joins the North Fork of the Forked Deer River South East of Dyersburg in Dyer County. I don't mean this to be exactly accurate but the best my program can do. This from http://www.tngenweb.org/stewart/gshis5.htm <<At the time of organization, Stewart County extended west to the Tennessee River, and south to the Alabama line, and upon extinguishment of the title of the Chickasaws to the lands in the Western Purchase, as it was then called, in 1819, the county had jurisdiction over all that country reaching to the Mississippi River. The major portion of that vast domain, however, was taken from Stewart County and erected into new counties by an act of the legislature in 1821. The last time her territory was reduced was in 1871, when Houston County was created.>> As to plotting the grant I will need a map showing ranges.
