1800 | Joseph's land in Bourbon County was described as 130 acres of second rate land on Paddys Creek, originally entered and surveyed in the name of Daniel Callahan and apparently purchased by Joseph Whitsett from William Johnson. Paddys Creek (listed as Paddy Run on present-day topographical maps) empties into the South Fork of the Licking River about a mile south of Cynthiana, Harrison County, Kentucky. The headwaters are west of Colville, Harrison County, and appear to be entirely within Harrison County, instead of extending east into bordering Bourbon and Nicholas Counties. [1] | |
