James Whatley - The 300 acre plat surveyed for James Whatley is found in Plat
Book B, page 282. The warrant for the survey was issued on September 4, 1783 by
a land court in Wilkes County presided over by William Downs Esq., Senior
Justice. The survey was executed on July 25, 1784 by William Fletcher D.S. and
Samuel Creswell, C. Surveyor. The land had previously been warranted on Old
Warrant, No. 863. This plat surrounds the 100 acre survey of Buckner Duke on
three sides and depicts Messer Creek (Mercer Creek) as it enters Duke on the
west and as it exits Duke on the east. The neighboring survey of Henry Kaar
shows this plat as being occupied by Samuel Whatley. Samuel may have been the
brother or son of James. Outside of the Whatley plat, on the land of Buckner
Duke, a bridge is noted that leads to the lands of James Mulkey. The neighbors
surrounding James Whatley are as follows: on the north is John Lang, on the
south is Mulkey and Buckner Duke and on the west is George Lea.
