From Chalkley’s Augusta County Records:
- Vol. 2 - Peterson vs. Craig--O. S. 159; N. S. 56--Bill, 1808. Orator, Morton Peterson. He holds by devise from his father, Mathias Peterson, a tract in Montgomery County, 237 acres, originally surveyed for John Daviss under Loyal Company. Davis sold to James Smith and then devised the unpaid purchase money to Mathias, who by a compromise with Smith came into possession of the land. Smith was arrested for debt and conveyed the land to John Craig and Thomas Quirk to become his bail. Both Craig and Quirk are dead and Hiram Craig, a son of John, is in possession, together with William Neil, who claims under Quirk.
