The Land Grant referenced in the previous blog post( E C Harrison to Wm Weaver) 

Source: Bedford Co Tennessee Deeds Book v. 1851-1852 p 55, E C Harrison to Wm Weaver; FamilySearch(https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSKX-M84Z : accessed 21 October 2025), IGN 8150805, Image 532 of 848.[There is an index at the start of 1851-1852 though the vol is not named(image 486 of 848)]

at the above listed source appears to be in Rutherford Co TN at the time it was granted. Note that Rutherford Co TN was established 25 Oct 1803. Bedford Co TN was established 3 Dec 1807 from southern parts of Rutherford. This grant mentions Lock's tract as does the deed from E C Harrison to Wm Weaver. The creek would later be called Alexander Creek after another land owner.
