and search for "n eastern McDowell" This Civil War era map shows the location of the Bickslers. There are several versions of the map. Choose one that was folded into six sections. S Bicksler and J Bicksler are located in the upper right section towards the left-hand side. Another map I have seen shows them living on the east side of Jefferson Branch.
