Great Grant Deed
The Great Grant Deed, also known more simply as the The Great Grant, was a transaction for the sale of property by the Cherokee Nation to Richard Henderson and Company. The grant is also known as the Lousia purchase or the Transylvania purchase. The transaction occurred at Sycamore Shoals on the Watauga River on March 17, 1775. The Great Grant was for lands forming Henderson’s new Transylvania Colony〔Ramsey page 117〕 comprising much of what is now the state of Kentucky.
The Great Grant was one of five property transactions made near present day Elizabethton Tennessee at the Sycamore Shoals of the Watauga River, collectively known as The Watauga Treaties. The Path Grant Deed was for lands in East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia required by Henderson and company to permit free passage into Kentucky. The Watauga grant and two Jacob Brown Grants clarified ownership of existing settlements in what is now East Tennessee.〔Henderson chap 14〕
Together these property sales from the Cherokee to the American settlers allowed the westward expansion of the American colonies beyond the Appalachian Mountains. The path beginning in East Tennessee into Kentucky was blazed by Daniel Boone for Richard Henderson and is known as the Wilderness Road.
