Another note - I own a 1938 copy of the North Carolina Land Grants in Tennessee 1778-1791. There is no spelling of any kind relative to Luckey/Lucky/Locke/Lockie/Locky/Lukey listed in the index. Does the female name of A. M. Luckey who married a J. R. Walker on 8 April 1875 in Bradley, Tennessee fit into your line? I did find several names of Walker within the Index. I will be happy to look for any surnames of anyone requesting. Also included in this book is a red outlined map of the Tennessee changed in County lines 1790 to 1900.

I have seen a few of the things you posted, but you have given me LOTS of ideas on other places to find him. I've been looking for 20 years, and other family members even longer. I am going to find this guy's family of origin!! If I can't get to TSLA, how best can I see this info? I'm more likely to make it to SLC where my sister lives, and I have looked there before.

Thanks Melba...I don't think Phillip and Adkin Pope were in TN until 1810, but thought there might have been some relatives there before. Jeanne

Could you please look up the surname of Turney?

One Turney surname - TURNEY, Peter. See Allen, Mary. When I go to Allen, Mary it has ALLEN, Mary III - 350, assigned by heirs of Peter Turney, Pvt. Then I go to pg 88 of the Book, Section III, No. 350. The word "do" as I understand it means ditto. In the information re Mary the year "do" is that of 1784. In the place land granted also is written "do" which in Mary's case is Davidson Co. There are 6 entries written crosswise across the page as follows: (Let me give you this from the prefix-The pages of the original are unnumbered and the book is not indexed. In 1803 a handwritten copy of the original report was made at the request of the State of Tennessee and it is this Tennessee record from the State Archives in Nashville, Tennessee which is here reproduced. The compilers have numbered the pages and added the index. This Glasgow report lists five different types of grants, in five different sections numbered serially beginning with Number 1 in each part. The six columns give the following information. (read carefully). Listing number, the name of the grantee, the number of acres, year grant was made, county or district in which land was situated, and the location of the land mainly by reference to waterways. This listing number does NOT correlate with location, entry, warrant or grant numbers, therefore copies of warrants or grants should NOT be requested by number, but should be requested by name of the holder ONLY. Section III "An estimate of the lands for which grants have issued to the Officers and Soldiers in the Continental Line of this State or their assigns, pursuant to act of Assembly." Under this heading are listed 1448 military grants. There is a note at end indicating that 2275 other warrants had been issued to officers and soldiers for which grants had not then been made. This Section (III) of the volumne has been so well handled by the publishers that there is little to add. It should be noted however that at the time of Tennessee's request for copies of the N.C. grants it was found that many errors had been made. In checking the grants with the original warrants and surveys it was often found that the soldier's name had been spelled wrong, or another had been substituted in error, etc. In these cases corrections of all kinds were made by "margin notes" and not on the face of the grant. N. C. did not issue any new warrants after ceding her territory to the Federal Government, but Tennessee did recognize and honor her previously issued warrants through the year 1824. (Note-there are different notes for Sections I, II, and IV than the above III) 350-Mary Allen - 640 -1784 - Davidson - On the South side of Big Harpeth Hope this helps. Melba PS To Sue in Lebanon-there were no surnames of Donnell re land grants. If I find other info on your family I will send it later. Melba And Mary would be interested to learn if this fits your line. -------Original Message------- From: Mary Miller Date: 08/22/05 20:40:03 To: TNSMITH-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [TNSMITH] Re: TNSMITH-D Digest V05 #269 Could you please look up the surname of Turney?
