Married in Franklin on Dec 30 1834 -- William and Mary "Polly". Mary
may be Cherokee Indian. William from NC or GA and Mary from SC.
Married just prior to 1835 Henderson Roll from the 1835 Treaty of New
Echota that required indians to be registered. Perhaps marriage date
significant to keep Mary from enrolling.

At least I assume it was in Franklin town rather thenFranklin County Tenn., as volunteers in Franklin County could notfind him there and suggested I come here. Andrew was born in 1744 inIredell County, NC. to (Maybe) James MORRISON. Andrew marriedElizabeth SLOAN March 26, 1766 in Rowan County, NC. They had 10children, James, Henry, John, Andrew Sloan MORRISON(my 4th greatGrandfather who was a minister and had my 3rd.
