Deeds are being studied [2007] to try to place this. It may be near, or the same as, what is known as "Spring Hill." Chase City and Its Environs, p. 70, shows Spring Hill was built by James Alexander Gregory, son of Robert S. Gregory. It served as a U. S. Post Office in the early 1800s. Ms. Lillian Ward says the place burned in 1940's while owned by Judge Edward W. Hudgins. The house was replaced. She said the Fred Wards bought the place about 1955. The house of Ms. Lillian Ward is about .2 mile from the main house, which is about .4 mile from #49. The entrance at #49 is about 36° 46' 36"N, 78° 29' 57"W (NAD27). The drive-way labeled Spring Hill Road is not the Spring Hill original site, but a Green place built on part of the old tract, per Lillian Ward.

Alexander's Ferry was located from 1741 until at least 1836 apx. 2 1/4 miles (as the crow flies) north-northeast by northeast of Kerr dam, on the south side of the Roanoke River. There is still a road located there which points north and stops apx. 1/2-mile south of the riverbank, called Alexander's Ferry Road. -- J. H. Alexander
