The following information was taken from The Register of the Kentucky State Historical Society Vol. 21, 1923, Frankfort, Kentucky, Southern Historical Press, 1981. This information will list only those who were present at the court or came to Logan’s Fort to secure certificates for the land that they had claimed in Kentucky or as a representative for another person. The spelling is taken exactly as it was printed in the Register. The Virginia Land Commission held its first court in Kentucky inside Logan’s Fort at St. Asaphs near Stanford, KY, October 13, 1779 where they administered the Oath of a Commissioner to William Fleming, Edmond Lyne and James Barbour. They selected John Williams, Jr. the Clerk and the Court was attended by the Sheriff. They adjourned to the next day to hear proof and quiet the titles by issuing certificates to rightful claimants.
