time two of his daughters were killed by the Indians. William
Ingles set up claim to the land and devised it to his daughter
Rhoda, who married Bird Smith. Thomas Peery deposes in Tazewell
County in 1809, that in 1772, when deponent went to that country,

family of Capt. Thomas Inglis was taken out of Burk's Garden by
Indians and depredations were committed until 1793. Daniel Harman,
Sr., deposes 22d June, 1809, that about 49 years ago he was on a
hunting expedition and camped on the land in dispute and took
shelter in a small cabin built there, said to be Inglis's. Col.
Inglis did not himself make the settlement, but it was made by his
uncle, John Inglis. Joseph Hix deposes as above, that 44 years ago
