Poll
for the Election of Burgesses for County of Prince William,
Virginia. Nicholas Anderson's name listed under candidates William
Fairfax and Major Blackburn.
Note:
I'm not sure if this was the same Nicholas Anderson who later settled in
Montgomery Co., KY. If so, he was born a lot earlier than many
speculate.

"Anderson's
Station: ...was upon the head of now Hinkston, about 2 miles south west
of Mt. Sterling. Settled
about 1791 by Nicholas Anderson; John Harper, bro: to Peter Harper, and
Ned Williams, were the other 2 of 3 men that had their fams there.
One Somers lived there, awhile, but not I believe, at first.
Hinkston was then called Little Mountain, to as low down as where Grassy
Lick came in; where it was then called H."
Note:
According to Harry Enoch, this was same land claimed in 1779
on the dividing ridge between Lulbegud and Hinkston Creeks.

Names of Thomas T. Anderson's children suggest that he was a grandson of

also support this view.

BLOODY AFFRAY UP ON SLATE:--A terrible and bloody affray occurred on the night of the 2nd of January in this county, some ten miles from this town, at a public house kept by Eli Hubbart. The difficulty arose concerning some dancing arrangements, if we have been correctly informed, having been absent
from the county at the time. The result was that Josh. Hubbart, brother of Eli, was shot with a pistol in the hands of Mat. Stevens, from the effects of which he died on the Thursday following. Eli Hubbart had his back ripped open with a knife in the melee, while Mat. Stevens and a son of his were terribly belabored with clubs.
