Name	Record Type	Number of Records
McCray, Wm.	Deed	1
McCray, Wm. Daniel	Inventory	1

Our subject was only 11 years old in 1800, so I wonder that he is mentioned in the court records, at all; and I don't know what to make of "Wm. Daniel."  These records are available on microfilm at the Tennessee State Library in Nashville and the LDS Family History Library.  The book, page, and microfilm roll numbers are given by Fischer for each entry.
