Sherry Crawford, I don't know about your Corns, but here is some Slaughter info from my Handy Records. Hope it helps. Nettie S. Clifton In 1780 a survey shows that 188 acres on Beardy Creek belonged to John Handy. A List of Henry County Commonwealth Grants or Patents shows that Benjamin Handy obtained a grant for 188 acres on Beard's Creek in 1783. (Benjamin's relation to John has not been determined). County lines have been redrawn since then and Beard's Creek lies in Franklin Co. Va. very close to the Patrick County line not far from Rt. 623 in the Dodson area near Fairystone State Park. John Handy d 1800 FranklinCoVA married Elizabeth (maiden name not known, possibly Harris).
