Efforts are made to publish information about all Tennessee coun­ ties, but unfortunately, for various reasons, some county records are not available. We encourage our readers to submit previously unpublished, documented material such as family Bibles, diaries, church minutes and old letters. We do reserve the right to edit to conserve space. Our friends in LaFayette, Tennessee inform us that the Macon County Historical Society has been reorganized. Their interests are expanded to include cemeteries, Bible records, veteran rosters, old photographs and genealogical research. Macon is a county where many records have been lost, and the efforts and family data of many persons will be needed to restore its valuable history. The Macon County Historical Society address is Key Park, LaFayette, TN 37083. CHISHOLM/CHISUM researchers take note. A major book on the Virginia branch and their allied lines, including those who spread throughout the South and into Texas during the l800s, is being compiled by Marilyn Ward Lynch of 512 N. 2nd. St., Sayre, OK 73662. She will welcome your information and share with you. The North Carolina Genealogical Society will host the 1987 ANNUAL CONFERENCE IN THE STATES for the National Genealogical Society. Plan to be in Raleigh, North Carolina May 13-16, 1987 and celebrate America's 400th Anniversary "Where It All Began." For details write to: NGS Conference in NC, 4527 17th Street North, Arlington, VA 22207; please enclose a 22¢ stamp, not a SASE, and material will be mailed when available.

With our efforts to keep the price of our magazine as low as possible, we do not routinely send individual subscription reminders.

This extensive collection was the library of Augusta Hooper Brough and was donated in her memory by her daughter, Allen Kent MacLean, of New Orleans, Louisiana. The books are greatly appreciated and are a fitting tri­ bute to one who has already given so much to this society. Lloyd D. Bockstruck will speak on Kentucky and Tennessee at the Spring Genealogical Seminar sponsored by the Greenwood-LeFlore Public Library from 9:00 am to 3:45 pm on Saturday, March 14, 1987.

No date appears in the body of the petition; the only date given is the one assigned by the archives for microfilming purposes, 1809. How­ ever in all three cases the columns of names are not identical, even though many of them fall in the same order. The names are repeated here as found on the film, but careful comparison should be made by the researcher, because some variations in in­ terpretations appear.] Petition of citizens "south of the Frenchbroad and Holston, between the rivers Tennessee and Big Pigeon" to forego payment of state taxes, and annual in­ stallments due on land purchases from the state.

    Marion Co., Tennessee – Cherokee Territory Submitted by Nomie Webb Hundreds of settlers moved through mountain gaps, Marion County, Tennessee many coming into Western North Carolina through In the Beginning Watauga, Swannonoa, and Butt Mountain Gaps. ~ Once upon a time, the area of Tennessee was The Great Wagon Road covered by a great inland sea. During a series of to the Carolina frontier. cataclysmic upheavals, giant folds (like an accordion) Early settlers used rose and the sea drained. The draining sea left a wide these routes to reach fertile basin, and the folds became known as the Great western North Carolina. Smoky and Cumberland Mountains. As a lush forest sprang from the basin, soil and groups of Indians settled here. In the 1700s four or five Indian tribes inhabited this area and by then this region belonged to the British Colony of North Carolina. New immigrants to America looking for new lands to settle, began forming groups to penetrate these vast open lands, but the Blue Ridge Mountains were barriers to travel.

  • TENNESSEE RIFLES by Robin C
    TENNESSEE RIFLES By Robin C. Hale A paper presented at the Fall, 1970 meeting of the American Society of Arms Collectors at Houston, Texas Mr. President, members of the Board, fellow members, and guests: it is a pleasure to be able to present this paper to you on one of my favorite subjects - the Tennessee Rifle. When I first considered giving this paper, I thought that it would be appropriate to present it at one of the Societg'e meetings in the east, where the majority of the Kentucky rifles were made. However, a large number of Kenhckies, including the Tennessee variety, were brought out here during the western migration and still turn up in the west from time to time. Because of this, and because what 1 say here may facilitate recognition of Tennessee rifles on the part of those who have not had the opportunity to delve into the subject, I think it most fitting that I give this paper in a city named for one of Tennessee's most famous heroes, who came west with many other Tennesseans to help the Texans win their independence from the Mexicans. I hope that my taIk will be of interest to you, and 1 will gratefully achowledge any help which the membership can provide in my research on Tennessee weapons, particularly bringing to my attention examples of rifles which you think may be Southern in origin. Until relatively recent years, very little had been published ROBIN C. HALE on Southern ent tuck^ rifles. Occ&ionally there would be a statement to the effect that Southern riftes tended to be unornamentative and iron-mounted, with a grease- or tallow-hole in the buttstock instead of a patchbox.

  • Beans Were Earliest Tennessee Settlers
    Beans Were Earliest Tennessee Settlers William and Lydia Bean are celebrated as the first permanent settlers in the section that became Tennessee, and their son, Russell Bean, was the first white child born within the confines of the state. As the descendants of William Bean spread out from the vicinity of the Watauga River, some of them made their way to Hamilton County. William Hamilton Bean, grandson of Russell Bean, was a major in the Union Army and was elected county tax collector and then sheriff. The William Bean who ventured into frontier Tennessee was born in 1721, and is believed to be the son of another William Bean, of Northumberland County, Va. The younger William Bean made his way to Augusta County, Va., and he married Lydia Russell. He began going out on hunting parties with Daniel Boone and others into the untracked wilderness. Despite the presence of hostile Indians, Bean decided in early 1769 to set down roots at the Watauga River where he had camped while hunting with Boone. The Beans were soon joined by some of their Virginia neighbors and kin, including John and George Russell, brothers of Lydia Russell Bean. It was Lydia Russell Bean who was rescued by the Cherokee "Beloved Woman'' Nancy Ward, according to early accounts. In 1776, Mrs. Bean had been captured by the Indians during a siege at the Watauga while William Bean was away on a hunting trip. When she refused to provide information about conditions at the settlers' fort, she was tied to a stake in preparation for being burned.
