| Robert | Crockett | He was aged 78 in Feb. 11, 1833 when he applied for his pension and at that time he was living in Cumberland Co. KY. He entered service in 1776 under Capt. James Johnson and Col. William Gaines. He served along the frontier of North Carolina as a substitute for Jacob Wills one month. He entered in June. In 1776 he entered under Capt. Isaac Bletcher and served three months and was engaged in building a fort on the frontier of Sullivan County. His next tour was under William Asher for three months as a drafted man in 1777. In 1778 he went to Chickamauga Country. He served under Col. Evan Shelby and Capt. Bledsoe seven weeks. He next went as a draft to King's Mountain and was in the battle. He served two months. In 1781 he was drafted for three months for which he got a discharge from Isaac Shelby. He served in all fourteen months. He lived in Sullivan County when he entered service. He was born in Bartly (Berkeley) Co. VA (now WV) in 1755. He lived in Green Co. TN until about 33 years ago when moved to what is now Cumberland Co. KY where he has lived ever since. James Williams of said county, aged 71, declares he was well acquainted with Robert Crockett in his youth. He lived near him in Sullivan Co., VA. 30 April, 1834. Cumberland Co. KY. Robert Crockett of said county declares he belonged to the company of Capt. James Elliott in the regiment of Col. Isaac Shelby. Today I went to your web site and enjoyed looking at the information. I believe that Robert may have been living with or near his father, David Crockett, in Carter's Valley where Rogersville is now in 1776. He was only 21 in 1776. His father and mother were killed by Indians in 1777. He may have been away on a tour of duty at the time. Is on the 1783 Greene Tax List --Submitted by Deanna Sanner |

| James | PEARCE |
Captain James Pearce, North Carolina Line, resided Washington, Greene and Sevier Counties, fought at King's Mountain and Boyd's Creek. When he was a resident of Washington County, "now Tennessee, then in the State of North Carolina, which county was then a frontier and bordered on a Nation of Cherokee Indians who were in liege with the British in the War of the Revolution and was at that time and before and after committing murders and confrontations on the said frontier in which he resided." In the summer of 1779, he raised a company of volunteers in what is now Greene County by order of Col. John Sevier, marching them to the French Broad River, then Indian Territory, now Cocke and Sevier Counties in Tennessee, in company with Capt. Jacob Brown who also commanded a volunteer company from Washington County, their goal to prevent the Indians from crossing the river to the frontier settlements. In the spring of 1780... marched to Beaver Dam on Lick Creek where the Indians had come in on the frontier settlements... In the early fall of 1780... marched to Gap Creek in what is now Carter County, Tennessee, where they were joined by Colonel Shelby's Regiment from Sullivan County, Tennessee and Colonel Campbell's Regiment from the western part of Virginia. They then marched on to "Kings Mountain atop the Yellow Mountains" by way of Bright's Trace. He further states that there was a hard battle fought on Kings Mountain, in which the American army was successful, the British Colonel killed and his army principally killed and taken prisoners. Immediately after his return to Greene county... march[ed] with his company to guard the frontier neighborhood on the Lick Creek flats against the Cherokee Indians and prevent Indian spies from getting into the white settlement.... marched his company and joined Colonel Sevier's regiment on Lacy Creek, now Jefferson county, Tennessee, in accordance with the order of the said Colonel Sevier. From thence, marched over the French Broad River, encamped on Boyds Creek... having served the full time of nine months in said campaign.
That he resided, as before stated, in Greene county, then Washington co., and there resided for many years but recently removed to Sevier... (See Capt. James Pearce) |
