Lanita, I found this note in my files. Hope it is of some help. Please see my web site at the address at the end of this note. My ancestors settled on the West Fork of Mill Creek in 1799. If you find any connection, please let me know. Ed ........................ Williamson County Tennessee County Court Minutes, May 1806-April 1812 by Carol Wells: October1806: Page 13 (227) On petition of James Mayfield John Chapt and Robert Sconce, notice having been given to George Mayfield and John Mayfield, order Richard Hightower, Alexander Smith, Thomas Bradley Colin McDaniel and Samuel Crockett to divide three fifths of 300 acres the balance of a preemption of 640 acres granted to James Mayfield decd on head of West fork of Mill creek of which they are tenants in common. ----------------------------- See home page at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~adams1895

My Thanks to all for your help and info... I am quite excited about the prospect of getting to go to one ancestral county where I've never visited. If anyone stumbles onto SCONCE or MAYFIELD, please let me know. The SCONCE is definitely mine, and I am still researching MAYFIELD. Thanks again!!
