Carolyn Epperson wrote (tradition):"Benjamin Epperson was born 1800 in Sinking Springs, Washington CO,TENN married Nancy Barron 1817 Sinking Springs Washington CO, TENN. They had two children 1. Nancy Surena Epperson b. 1818 Sinking Springs, Washington CO,Tenn.. 2. Benjamin Epperson JR b. 1819 Sinking Springs, Washington CO,Tenn...In 1823 Benjamin left his family and took his son with him..1830 census he is in Perry CO,Tenn along with his brothers James Asa, John, Thomas, Peter..they left the Co., for Fountain CO,IN..They arived there in 1832..They all bought land next door to each other..twp cates, and Harveyville..Benjamin remarried to Deborah Rennick in 1834..They had two children..1. girl unknown ..2. benjamin Franklin Epperson b. 1836..Benjamin F. married to Sarah O.Norton..they had a son named BENJAMIN Franklin Harrison Epperson in 1854..Benjamin Epperson F died early 1854..Benjamin F.H. married in 1880 to Emma Jane Johnson. They had 13 children..First was male still born names Albery Epperson b. 1881 d,1881...Asa, Jesse,leaves for Mo..Benjamin buys land from Jesse..Thomas married to Lethy York in 1836..Peter moved to Putman CO,IN..John,Thomas lived in Macon CO,IA.Benjamin F.H settled down in Jasper CO,MO and family..."MY NOTE (Ann): Without more proof, I have to question this.
My Main Concern: If Benjamin left his family in 1823, why did his wife remarry to John Crouch in 1818? Why also would he move with James Asa Epperson and his wife to Fountain Co.,, Indiana when Asa's wife was Nancy Barron's sister? I would think that if he left his wife, he wouldn't want to be around his sister-in-law.
