    See Union County Heritage, 1981, Mannie Lee Mabry, Editor, Published by the Union County Heritage Committee in cooperation with Hunter Publishing Company, Winston-Salem, NC for a naming and the history’s of Isaac’s descendants. Concerning Isaac’s home, it states that “The original hewn 18-inch pine logs secured by wooden pegs stood near Tinker Creek about three miles south of Union. The likely date: the mid to late 1700's probably built by Isaac Hawkins. His son Jonathan's family occupied the house next.”
