In 1825 Abner McGee entered a tract of land in what is known today as Hueytown. Eleven years later
Octavus Spencer entered another tract in the same community. In 1833 Mortimer Jordan purchased thousands of
acres from these gentlemen in this community. This estate was sold at auction and otherwise to other people from
1842 to 1866 when the big auction was held.
John Crooks, Sam and Jesse Huey, twins, and Calvin Waldrop had settled in the lower part of the country
near what later became known as Toadvine. Calvin Waldrop's father, Joe, entered land in Toadvine country in
1823. The Hueys obtained land on Valley Creek near the Rock Creek settlement.
