Notes:

On May 1, 1840, Thomas Crabtree received a grant from the government of the S. E. 1/4 of the S. E. 1/4 of Section 8 at the land office in Shawneetown. The patent was made during the term of President Zachary Taylor. This tract of 40 acres included the original site of Enfield plus the Western Addition and the Southern Addition. Roughly, it extended from the L & N Railroad track to a line drawn east and west between the Methodist Church and the Grade school yard from a line drawn north and south west of Charles W. Land's house to a line drawn north and south west of Chalon Land's. Thomas later sold part of this land to his brother-in-law, Dr. Martin Johnson, who later laid out the Village of Enfield, Illinois.
