war pension declaration of James Pearce says that he put together a
volunteer company to fight the Indians and keep them from crossing
the river and attacking the settlement after they had killed one man
in the spring of 1780 at Lick Creek and Beaver Dam. Where would this
be? Could this be John Wood above that was killed? What happened to
John's TN property after his death?
