If you have any Ohio map at all,"Jacktown" is just south ,on RT 41,from
the 4 lane RT 32,and
just uphill from Ohio Brush Creek. It's a nickname for Jacksonville.
Anybody looking for BILLTOWN? Named for Bill WAMSLEY,in the area of
TURKEY and Blue
Creeks forks of Scioto Brush Creek.
Note,Ohio Brush Creek and Scioto Brush Creek,and Eagle Creek,and their
forks are the major
creeks. How big was JACKTOWN? 200-300 maybe?
