Excerpts from Noah H Bradley's Book "My Father's Family"

The following petition was filed in Russell County Kentucky, "To the Honorable General Assembly of Virginia."

Sheweth that the County of Russell is in extent from the East towards the West, at least one hundred and fifty miles. That the Courthouse of said County is situated within about 40 miles of the Eastern extremity of consequence the inhabitants Westerly has upwards of one hundred miles to travel to attend Court: Added to this inconvenience twenty miles of the way is a Wilderness, frequently dangerous to travel through on account the Indian Enemy.

That we believe it would contribute much to our prosperity were we indulged with a division of said County it would contribute to Order and Improvements of various kinds; Encourage the introduction of new Settlers; and of course our strength to oppose our Enemy in time of an Invasion.

From these considerations of your Petitioners pray; That a new County m be erected, in that part of Russell County lying Westerly of a line beginning on the top of Clinch mountain one mile Eastwardly of big Maukason Gap thence a direct course to the mouth of Stock Creek then the same to Powells mountain and thence due North to the Kentucky boundary.

And your Petitioners shall ever pray Among the many signers of the petition above were George Hatfield, Jose Hatfield, Jeremiah Hatfield, Ephraim Hatfield, William Hobbs, William Blanton, John Blanton Senior, John Blanton Junior, Job Hobbs, William Hobbs Junior, Christopher Hobbs and George Blanton.

John BLANTON (son of Thomas Blanton & Jane McGuffey) was born about 1676 in Caroline Co., Virginia. (Ref- Lucille Carter Papers) John married (1) Hannah ANDERSON. They had 13 children
