I'm a Tennessean by blood.....my maternal and paternal great grandparents were
both born in Cocke County, Tennessee. Some of my surnames include
Mom's side
THOMPSON,CLICK, GRAY, BRIM, MANLEY, CAMPBELL, YOWELL, GLAZE, SHREVE,
MCLAUGHLIN
Dad's side
WHITAKER, BALCH, FAUBION, AYERS, RECTOR, FISHBACK,
HUDSON, EDGEMON,

Some were early settlers in Washington, Greene, Cocke & Monroe counties,
Tennessee.
Most migrating from Philadelphia through the Shenandoah Valley
of Virginia. Others from the first and second GERMANNA settlements
of 1714
& 1718 from Spotsylvania, Virginia.
These families traveled the Great
Philadelphia Wagon Road and Wilderness Roads to North Carolina and Tennessee.
Many of my families were of German origin or French Huguenots.
My ancestors settled on the first Western Frontier of America & they
were among the first families of Tennessee.
They were settlers during the
time Tennessee was involved in being the
"State of Franklin".
If you don't
know your history,
visit this link and any of East Tennessee counties & you'll quickly
learn about it. They settled on the land of the Cherokee Indian hunting
grounds.
WHAT ABOUT BENEDICT ARNOLD? Read a history of one of the largest land scams of our Nation. You will be amazed of how we have been led to believe so many lies of our written histories that have been taught to us for years, but the records show a much different picture.
