John Querns (#2) - The 500 acre plat surveyed for John Querns is found in Plat
Book a, page 87. The warrant for the survey, dated November 3, 1783, was issued
by the Land Court of Wilkes County, presided over by Benjamin Catching Esq.,
Senior Justice. The survey was executed on December 20, 1783 by William Downs
D.S. The grant was given to John Querns on February 13, 1784 by Governor John
Houstown and it was registered on February 16, 1784. (Grant Book DDD, page 92)
The plat is notable not only for its size but also because it shows Hardin’s
Creek entering on the southeast near Emy Stewart flowing almost due north. The
stream, however, appears to take a 90 degree turn before exiting the plat and
entering Jackson - where it is shown flowing almost due east. This large section
of land lists only two neighbors, Joseph Jackson on the east and Emy Stewart on
the south.
