Notes

(Jack) bought a tract of Approximately 100 acres for $500 from James Glasgow of Alabama by his attorney, John Adair, with the deed dated 27 July 1813.The original home built in 1816 by Jack was a two-story dwelling of matched hand-hewn logs. The double fireplace was fourteen feet square at the base and the floors and beaded joints were comparable to machine-planed lumber. By the time the property passed through his son Royal to Grandsons Robert and Isham G., the property had increased to more than 300 acres of fine land and much timber. In 1904 three million feet of lumber was cut and sold to a company that was making a canal on the present site of Middlesboro, Kentucky. The farm had natural springs to provide an unfailing supply of water. In 1916 there was a deluge that washed out one of the strongest springs sending down tons of gravel and logs to the field below. Robert, as the sole owner of the farm, in 1907,built a large house of twelve rooms to accommodate his growing family. A large porch in front and a landscaped yard offered a fine view of the town at the foot of the hill. Buried in the Leabow Cemetery. The Cemetery is cared for by Jeremy Davis, Davis Auto Parts. The Leabow house burned about 2007. From information in a will book in Grainger county,Tennessee.Page 64-65,WPA 1938. There was a John Leabow and wife Catherine with two more sons listed, a Jack Lebow and a John Lebow.
