George Washington Hull : papers, 1776-1912.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/49243317

Collection of personal letters and legal and land papers dealing with the lands inherited by the heirs of Colonel John Campbell. The papers describe the location of the lands owned by Campbell and the division of the land by his heirs. The main focus of the land documents is the area of Jefferson County, Ky., that later became Portland. Hull and other heirs disputed the 1822 sale of this land to Thomas Hinde by Richard Taylor, executor to the will. The papers start with land documents from Campbell dating to 1776, and cover the period up to the settlement of the suit in 1874.
