"This brings us to the Big Spring.North of the creek up to this point, except in the Lindsay's mill region, which has been mentioned, there were McCampbells on part of the lands of the McCowns (McEwins ?) and J.P.S. Teaford.
JOHN ADAIR, grandfather of J. McD.(McDowell ?) ADAIR, lived on the old place now owned by Samuel ADAIR.This family has been identified with Monmouth for a long series of years .....
From the Big Spring to Lowman's mill the McKees owned.
The portion next to spring, known as the Samuel W. McKee place, belonged first to Cunningham.
The O.B. DUNLAP place 50 years ago was owned by William GILMORE of the BUFFALO and JAMES RIVER family of Gilmores."
