Joseph Jackson - The 400 acre plat surveyed for Joseph Jackson is found in Plat Book A, page 93. The warrant for the survey, dated September 5, 1783, was issued by a Land Court of Wilkes County, William Downs Esq., Senior Justice presiding. The survey was executed on September 20, 1783 by William Downs D. S. The grant was issued to Joseph Jackson on December 15, 1784 by Governor John Houstown and it was registered on December 16, 1784. (Grant Book FFF, page 107) The outstanding feature of the plat is Hardin’s Creek along with its tributaries. Joseph Jackson is bounded on the west by John Querns, on the northeast by vacant, on the east by John Mulkey and John Thornton, and on the south by vacant. Joseph Jackson was the brother of Deborah Jackson (the wife of Robert McGinty). In 1786, this land was transferred to Robert and Deborah McGinty, although no deed exists for the transaction.
