Notes
Property-shared
The plantation was received in a court settlement. Col. David Looney subsequently sold the property to Captain William Crow in 1766.Emigration-shared
Jane McClellan and her (new) husband John Kerr are believed to have relocated to the area of Washington County, Virginia, and Sullivan County, Tennessee (formerly North Carolina), along with her father (John McClellan), sister Mary (McClellan) Looney (wife of David Looney), and Alexander Brackenridge. At the time Botetourt County, Virginia covered all of this area (Pulizos 2).I believe this area to be the lands in the Holston River Valley that Edward Sharp had previously scouted and/or purchased prior to his death, including that which comprised the mill he established on what is now Boozy Creek (formerly Sharp Creek). This is particularly relevant, as Jane McClellan and John Kerr reportedly took over operation of this mill, with it eventually becoming known as Kerr's mill.
Residence-shared
The area of Muddy Creek became part of North Carolina, and is now part of Sullivan County, Tennessee.Emigration
