George Lea (#1) - The 200 acre plat surveyed for George Lea is found in Plat
Book G, page 221. The warrant for the survey, dated April 4, 1785, was issued in
Wilkes County by Stephen Heard Esq., Senior Justice. The survey was executed on
April 19, 1785 by William Fletcher D.S. and Sam Creswell, C. Surveyor. The grant
was issued to George Lea on October 12, 1785 by Governor Samuel Elbert and it
was registered on October 12, 1785. (Grant Book III, page 86) This land had been
previously warranted, Old Warrant No. 616. George Lea organized the first
Phillips Mill Baptist Church on this particular piece of property. The neighbors
surrounding George Lea are: Benjamin Hubbard on the west, Hugh Jones and John
Lang on the north, and Samuel Whatley on the east. Hubbard’s land would be
surveyed for George Lea a year later.
