"[In regard to the settlement of Jackson, Clay, IN,] although surveyed and the lands made subject to entry as early as 1816, the congressional township at a later date organized by the civil authorities and named Jackson was not . . . occupied until 1828 or 1830. Among those who occupied this territory at about this time were James Green, John Sturdivant, John Tucker, Thomas Wheeler, Arthur Helton, Esau Presnell, George B. Zenor, George Lucas, Levi Cromwell, Amos Hedge, Samuel Stigler, Henry Tilley, Jacob Gibbons, the Moores, the Bolins, the Lowdermilks, the Slacks, and others. At the expiration of a quarter of a century from the time of the white man's coming into this territory, the lands were all taken, the last entry being made in 1853."
