Middle Tennessee Pre-1796 Queries
April 1998
My great grandfather was George MARTIN.
His wife's name was Rachel,possibly NEWMAN. (Both born in TN) Old
family stories say her father(born in England) had a plantation
before the Civil War and herfamily disowned her for marrying George.
They are on the 1880 ARCensus and probably married about 1875.
Supposedly their firstchild, Sam, was born at Lynchburg, TN.
Another old story was thatGeorge was dropped off at the MARTIN
(George and Sarah) family houseon the doorstep in a basket as an
infant. Some say his real lastname was KEITHERLAND. Please help me
if you can. Information fromthe 1860 and 1870 TN Census would
probably be very helpful. As youcan tell, we don't have much to go
on.

Seeking info. on
Anthony SUMMAR b. 1790. His children were born inTN and it listed
him as born in NC but if TN was not a state then, NC could mean that
he was actually born in TN? At any rate, ANYSUMMAR in TN is a
relative of this family and the family was laterfound in
Murfreesboro, TN. Please email me if you have anySUMMAR's and some
of this family went by Summers. I believe Anthonyhad a brother
named James B. Summar. Would like to know who theirfather is and
find more descendants of both sides of the family. Thx, Mandy

Miles MORRISON is shown on the 1820 census of Wayne Co., TN. He
enlisted in the West TN Militia in Nov. 1814 and served 6 Mo. All
Census records with references to his family state that he was born
in TN and would have been born in mid to late 1790s. His married a
Catherine (?) who was born in KY, and their first child was born abt
1815. I've hit a wall at the Wayne County and can't find where in TN
he was born or who his parents were. Any scrap of information will be
sincerely appreciated.
