<ref group="note" name="Land Lottery">I think 600 acres may be incorrect.  Their were two land lotteries in 1932, the first lottery awarded 160 acre plots, and the second, or gold lottery, awarded 40 acre lots. Some individuals were given multiple draws, however David would have needed to win four times.<sup>[http://sos.georgia.gov/archives/what_do_we_have/land_lottery/land_lottery_1832.htm GA Archives 1][http://sos.georgia.gov/archives/what_do_we_have/land_lottery/land_lottery_1832gold.htm GA Archives 2]</sup>According to to tax roll records (1864, 1868, 1870, 1871) David owned 490 acres.<sup>[[http://crewsgenealogy.com/tng/showalbum.php?albumID=13 Tax Rolls]]</sup>
