Fallingwater River

About 1814 John McDowell settled near this spot on the Fallingwater River in Tennessee. He owned 30 acres. When John died about 1819, his estate included a horse valued at $97.25. Most horses that I have seen in estate settlements were valued at $7-$15. John owned a valuable stud horse. Had it been a famous racehorse?



This photo was taken at Burgess Park, which is open to the public. Burgess Park has three waterfalls; this is Little Falls. Burgess Park is near Sparta and Cookeville in Middle Tennessee.

ANDREW McDowell/McDole's Neighbors in 1830 WHITE CO.

Reading down the same sheet of the 1830 census of White County, Tennessee with Andrew. It is page 63. As you can see, there is no correlation between the neighbors Andrew had in 1820 and his neighbors in 1830.
If anyone call tell me what part of the county these people lived in, it would help me.
