Overview

During his visit to the western country from Virginia in 1775, John Howard staked out land claims on two tributaries of the Kentucky River-one a few miles upstream from Fort Boonesborough, the other just downstream from the fort. These tributaries came to be known as Upper Howard's Creek and Lower Howard's Creek. John Howard, the pioneer who gave his name to these Clark County creeks, later settled near Lexington in Fayette County and died there at the age of 103. His home place, the plantation known as "Howard's Grove," was located on the now-legendary Gainesway Farm. 74 pp., illus., indexed
