Facts and Events
Note from Joe Holt, RootsWeb, WorldConnect:
Excerpt from "History of Tennessee", Southern Historical Press - 1988, Page 864.
"--- While there were no doubt a large number of still - houses in the early days, yet they all disappeared years ago, and with few exceptions have passed from the memory of the present citizens. One of the first, if not the first still was owned by Philip Burrow, father of Nimrod Burrow, Esq., and was situated near the present town of Flat Creek; John Holt also had a still at about the same time and in the same neighborhood. ---"
