Download or read book First Families of the Lost State of Franklin written by John C. Rigdon and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-04 with total page 0 pages. 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family sketches and genealogical information on the first families to settle in the area of East Tennessee that originally made up the state of Franklin.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.

Download or read book The Futrell Family of East Tennessee written by Terry L. Futrell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-10-30 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many false assumptions have been perpetuated through the years about the parentage of Etheldred Futrell, progenitor of the East Tennessee Futrells. The migration of the related John B. Walls family to Morgan County, Tennessee, has also been falsely portrayed. The author corrects these errors by presenting compelling evidence based on official records and DNA analysis. The history of the Futrell family in America is summarized, providing linkage back to Thomas Futrell, the first Futrell who came to America in 1679 as an indentured servant. The migration of John Martin, John B. Walls, and Etheldred Futrell from North Carolina to Knox County, Tennessee in the early 1800s, and then to Roane and Morgan Counties in the 1850s is documented. Finally, the first four generations of the Futrell family in East Tennessee are presented in detail supported by reference to official records and other reliable sources. A link to electronic records in the family tree is also provided.

Download or read book Walter Alley and Related Families of the Tennessee Valley written by Walter Alley Russell and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Alley and Related Families of The Tennessee Valley: A Collection of Genealogies, begins with the earliest known ancestors of this lineage, Walter Alley and his wife, Jane Gilliland. It identifies their known descendants and related families - many are identified with the Tennessee Valley. There are fourteen parts in the book with each representing the lineage of an ancestor or related family. Those families are: Alley, Arendt, Brown, Cox, Dame, Gilliland, Hawk, Jones, Kelly, McMahan, Oyler, Ridley, Schoolfield, and Wilson. Most of these parts are expanded to include many other lines, i.e., Bennett, Crawford, Davis, Gay, Goble, Graham, Greene, Grider, Gunter, Jennings, Loyd, Martin, Pettus, Rankin, Russell, Shepherd, Smith, and Wimberly. Connections between parts and various families are shown by cross-references. Collecting and organizing this vast amount of information occurred over a period of thirty-five years. It represents the efforts of many family historians who shared their carefully preserved memorabilia with the author to assure memories of their families would never fade. All contributors are identified, some within the text while others are shown in endnotes. More than sixty-five hundred indexed names were accumulated as a result of the combined efforts of everyone involved. Hopefully, the expanded Foreword and Introdution sections will enhance the readability of this review. The Foreword defines and describes the book's organization and presentation. The Introduction attempts to create an awareness in the reader of conditions immigrants faced in their country of orgin as well as those they encountered immediately upon arrival and settlement in America. Memories of families diminish with each passing generation. The focus of this review is to preserve those cherished thoughts by connecting our present families with those of the past and bridge the gap between us, our forefathers, and future generations; hopefully, this endeavor provides that venue.
