• Documents		Virginia map of counties 1750-1805 Map showing historic progression of counties in late 18th century. This helps in understanding deeds, etc. on site.
  		Colyer log house on Nolichucky river, mentioned Courier Journal newspaper May 18, 1913 Louisville Courier Journal newspaper mentions Colyer log house still standing....not sure whose house, since William Colyer house burned well before the civil war according to A.S.Colyer biographical. Could be a son's place, like John Colyer, William Colyar jr. etc.
