Lincoln County Taxes
Do you find little clues in tax records? When I reviewed the Lincoln County Kentucky tax records, I made some discoveries that are helping my CRAWFORD research in the area. Discovered John Crawford -- who owned 913 acres of land Sellers families listed beginning in 1787 Rebekah Crawford (widow) listed in 1787-1791 James Crawford owning 114 acres of land on Sugar Creek (same description as land owned by Rebekah Crawford) in 1794 Douglas families listed beginning in 1789 1795 Mystery William Crafort - 500 acres Richland Creek 1799 Mysteries: James Crawford -- 100 acres on Rolling Forks Robert Crawford -- 200 acres
Rebecca's Land
Have you ever found you have attributed a record to the wrong person? Unfortunately, with same name research that can happen too easily. As I was transcribing deeds that I thought were for James and Rebecca (Anderson) Crawford of Garrard County, Kentucky, I began to question whether these deeds were for this James and Rebecca (Anderson) Crawford. There were some clues in the deeds that should have led me to a different James Crawford. The first clue was the signatures. Rebecca's name was above James'.
