I have information from Wes Patterson's Biography of his ancestor Robert Patterson of Linville Creek, VA
saying that many families of Linville Creek got land
grants in the Clark's Fork of Bullock Creek SC in the 1760's
Among them were the Mathew Black family. Their daughter,
Janet, married William McElwee. William McElwee had two
identical plats surveyed in the area Jan 14, 1767.
