The warrant for the survey was issued on July 12, 1784 in Wilkes County by William Downs Esq., Senior Justice. The survey was executed on July 28, 1784 by William Downs, D.S., and Samuel Creswell, C. Surveyor. The land had been warranted previously, Old Warrant No. 846. The grant was issued to Andrew Wilson on December 9, 1784 by Governor John Houstown and it was registered on December 14, 1784. (Grant Book FFF, page 94) The most striking feature of this survey is its depiction of the confluence of Hardin’s Creek and Mercer Creek. The neighbors surrounding the plat are shown as Benjamin Few on the south, John Thornton’s old survey on the west, John Mulkey’s old survey and Silas Mercer on the north, and Sanders Walker on the east.
