Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides family sketches and genealogical information on the first families to settle in the area of East Tennessee that originally made up the state of Franklin. The earliest settlers date back to the mid 1700s. By the year 1770, some 70 families had settled in the area bounded by the Watauga, Nolichucky, and Holston river valleys. Most migrated from Virginia via the Great Valley, although a few were believed to have been Regulators fleeing North Carolina after their defeat at the Battle of Alamance. In May 1772, the Watauga and Nolichucky settlers negotiated a 10-year lease with the Cherokee Indians, and being outside the claims of any colony, established the Watauga Association to provide basic government functions. President Theodore Roosevelt wrote that the Watauga settlers were the "first men of American birth to establish a free and independent community on the continent." Modern Counties in Tennessee which made up the State of Franklin: Blount County Carter County Cocke County Greene County Hamblen County Hawkins County Jefferson County Johnson County Sevier County Sullivan County Unicoi County Washington County A convention of delegates (except for Davidson County that sent none) met on August 23, 1784 and after intense debate they declared these western counties independent of North Carolina on a unanimous vote. Several names were offered for the new state. The name Frankland was proposed since it was translatable as "the Land of the Free," however, Franklin was decided upon perhaps for gaining the favor of Benjamin Franklin. North Carolina regained control of the region in 1788 thus ending the existance of the State of Franklin. The extant records for the State of Franklin generally reference the entire region which now covers the 12 counties of East Tennessee. This book focuses on the earliest known families in the area.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Town of Bernardston, Franklin County, Massachusetts, 1736-1900: With Genealogies The history of this town is, by far, of much greater value and interest than a casual observer of to-day would be led to believe possible. It is, therefore, with a feeling of deepest satisfaction that the completion of this work is viewed. - all the more intense because undertaken purely from motives of veneration and cherished remembrances of childhood associations. As is well known to many residents of the place, this is the third attempt made to embody in permanent form the history of our ancestors, their struggles to reclaim the land and establish for themselves a home on the frontier. The late Lieut. Governor Henry W. Cushman began making notes of conversations held with older inhabitants as early as 1835. A native of the place, and thoroughly interested in local historical research, he sedulously collected, so far as he was able, each and every item of information which, by any possible chance, he might need in the preparation of the history he some day expected to publish. His death prevented the fulfillment of his hopes. His papers were all bequeathed to the New England Genealogical and Historical Society of Boston (of which he was a member), and for twenty years, to those locally interested, it seemed as if the fruits of his labors were lost. In April, 1884, the town appointed a committee to procure the papers, finish up the work as might be necessary, and publish the same. It had been said, and was supposed to be the case, that, had Mr. Cushman lived, a month's labor was all that would have been required to complete the manuscript for publication.

Download or read book Family Maps of Franklin County Illinois Deluxe Edition written by Gregory A. Boyd and published by . This book was released on 2010-05-20 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 169 pages with 44 total maps Locating original landowners in maps has never been an easy task-until now. This volume in the Family Maps series contains newly created maps of original landowners (patent maps) in what is now Franklin County, Illinois, gleaned from the indexes of the Illinois State Archives. But it offers much more than that. For each township in the county, there are two additional maps accompanying the patent map: a road map and a map showing waterways, railroads, and both modern and many historical city-centers and cemeteries. Included are indexes to help you locate what you are looking for, whether you know a person's name, a last name, a place-name, or a cemetery. The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the early 1900s. What's Mapped in this book (that you'll not likely find elsewhere) . . . 2319 Parcels of Land (with original landowner names and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map) 85 Cemeteries plus . . . Roads, and existing Rivers, Creeks, Streams, Railroads, and Small-towns (including some historical), etc. What YEARS are these maps for? Here are the counts for parcels of land mapped, by the decade in which the patent applications were made: DecadeParcel-count 1820s8 1830s309 1840s343 1850s1600 1860s20 1870s2 1880s6 1900s5 1910s26 What Cities and Towns are in Franklin County, Illinois (and in this book)?
