The estate of Jonathan Creech was not settled for many years, but his assets were appraised after his death in Lee County, Virginia, in 1852.

On the 25th of September, 1854, Henry Creech, son of Jonathan Creech and Jane Blair, made a deed to give Jonathan's property, including the part inherited from Thomas Robinson (Robertson) to William Henry Harrison Sproul; but this effort did not speed up the settlement of Jonathan's estate. This deed is on file in Lee County, Book 12, p.243.

A final property settlement was made in Harlan County, Kentucky, on 22 Nov 1867, Book G, p.495, and it was signed by the following heirs:

Deceased prior to the 1867 settlement were Mortimore Creech, Elizabeth Creech Kilbourne, Mary Creech Richmond, Hiram Creech, John Creech, Jonathan Creech, Jr, and Rachel Creech.
