Thank you for your comments richreese.

I checked the addy I had in my last email and found it went to the main
window of Genealogy.com by default. Sorry about that. I do have a subscription to
all the online sites you mentioned and have checked them over the 9 years of
research for this Philip Buck.

geographical reference The geographical reference is the Wyoming CO.
PA as shown in the title of the section of book.

original grant description The original grant description was what I was
hoping to locate.
But now it seems these original documents are listed among the "Unknown."

I want to Thanks Sue for her generous time and information that she sent me.
It was a help and the closest I can come to seems to be Eaton Township on the
Susquehanna River. The other "crick" I believe to be Bowman's Creek. I will
look for a better map to check this out.
Thanks again Sue.

And Thanks to this mailing list.

This survey (the one printed below) is without geographical reference.
That information needs to be checked against the original grant description,
the right of James Horton, and the parcel he already spun off to Peter
Matthews. Knowing the detail and care that Rev. Hayden went to in his
research, I'm sure the article must start with a specific reference to
location.
While it is nice to know that there is a link to an on-line site which
contains this information, you need to be aware that access to most of this
kind of information from places like Ancestry.com / familytreemaker.com /
etc. is restricted to subscribers.
