I have also found out that James had atleast three brother's and two sister's, George, John, and Samuel Turner and Mary and Mandy or Amanda I do not know who the sister's married or if they married at all, in addition to this information I found out there are two nephew's possibly still living in Union Co. they are brother's, Marvin and Lee Turner. I would appreciate any information on this line of Turner's.

James W. Turner b.1805 VA.

walterljr1 — 22 Jun 2008 6:32:56 GMT

The results from the Turner DNA test that I took are in.
We have some more info and we can get more if more will take the test. You have to be a direct male from James W. to get the results. The results are posted on a free site as follows: freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~turnerdna/
The group I'm in is the Olive Green group and my test number is 118100/
I encourage all who are researching this Turner line to help each other and find some Turner's that would do the DNA test. Should anyone have any info on a brother or brother's to James W. that would be very helpful. Thank You in advance Walter Turner

Come join us....

I am hosting a website at MyFamily.com. If this posting sounds interesting, email me and I will add you to the website.

Most recently I have added many people to this website who are also researching connected families of the Powell Valley Region. Although, my interest in mainly in the lineage of the SMITH Families, other associated families have been neighbors, cousins, wives, co-workers, or church members...thus making their interaction the backbone of Powell Valley Tennessee's History.

Therefore I have extended this website to include; SMITH, MCCARTY/MCREARY, WEAVER, ELLISON, AUSMUS, BEELER, SHARP, SWEAT, GUY, WHITE, WILLIAMSON, BRANTLEY, HUNTER, and KINCAID.

If you have family members or distant relatives or even know someone who is working on their family history; you should invite them to join us at this website. Also others who are researchers and genealogists are also welcome. Just contact me with their interest and I will send them an invitation as well.

I Need Help Identifying these Southerland and Nicely Photos
Can anyone help Identify some Pictures from the East TN Area. (Mainly Rhea Co, Union & Grainger & Anderson Co, TN. These pictures are from an old Picture box that once belonged to the family of Forrest "Bill" Nicely, the son of Claude Elbert "Forrest" Nicely, b. 1890 In Washburn, Grainger Co, TN & Mollie "Mallie" Southerland b. 1894 Union Co, TN. Daughter Of Ambrose Southerland & Mary "Lucinda"Munsey Or Muncey Union Co, TN. Forrest "Bill" & Mallie both died in, Rhea Co, TN. These Pictures could likely Include people from East TN & maybe, Southeastern, KY. The most likely areas these people would have lived In would probably have been Union, Grainger, Claiborne, & Rhea Counties In East TN and possibly Whitley and Laurel Co, Kentucky. PLEASE NOTE; Some Likely Surnames are Capps, Rosenbalm, Nicely Southerland, Garrison, Fugate, Spitzer, Carter, Munsey, Hammock/ack,and others from around the East TN Area.Most of these people would be around 20, 30 and 40 years old, probably in the 1950s and 1960s, If there is anyone who knows their Identity or have any clues as to who these people may be, or have any questions, please reply. Please email Connie at dmywil2@wmconnect or (Please Put "Unidentified Southerland and Nicely Pictures" In the Subject line.) Thank You,

I have been searching for years for information about James J Young who married Sarah Smith daughter of Josiah and Martha Clemmons Smith of Union County .
Sarah Smith b. 1881 Union County. She was the second wife of James J Young. Her sister Martha married him first but died soon after the birth of a son. She probably died in childbirth. James J Young was born in 1861 Clay County Ky.
This i nformation is acccording to his death certificate. However I can find nothing at all of him prior to 1910 when he and Sarah and children were living in Brown Creek Mcowell County WV. In 1920 They lived in Perry County Ky. He died in 1927. Some of their children were born in TN.
This James J Young is my husband grandfather. Oddly enough no on in the family knows much about him. My husbands father is dead as well as all aunts and uncles. If anyone can help with this it would be so greatly appreciated.

The Ellison's in Tennessee

Melissa Hatter — 19 Mar 1999 12:00:00 GMT

I am looking for information on my family. My maiden name is Ellison and my family has traced us back to three brother's who moved from N.Caroline about 1797. I believe that their father's name might have been James but one of the three brother's was named James and was born in 1780.
This James was my great great great great grandfather. He was married to a Susannah Ausmus. I have heard that some can trace us back to the McAllister clan from Scotland.
James has a grandson named Berry who was born in1836. This Berry was married at Lost Creek, Union County by a Reverend Williams. He had three children before he joined the Union Army in Union County. Any help on this line or the Ellison's Part in the Civil War would be WONDERFUL.
Write please.

William George

DianFarmer — 3 Feb 2002 4:24:38 GMT

William George was listed on the corpse transfer form I have for James Calloway George as being born in TN, so to find the family in 1860 we probably don't need to go far.
James had 4 boys with Lourelda Cotton an Indian, he died and left her with the boys and other children she had from previous marriages, the George family tried to take the boys from her because they had money because they owned that stor in Knoxville, so Lourelda said no and the boys had to drop out of school and go to work to support the family, so my grandfather was a coal miner in Kentucky until my mom was 16 and they headed for the shipyards in Florida, where she still lives today.
James' boys were:
William Pearl George, Hobart Nimrod George, Charley and Gillis.
Both families disowned them for a while because he was Jewish and married an Indian and her because she was Indian and married a Jew!

Louis Atkins Family in Union/Grainger Co. Tenn./Virg/KY

Mary Atkins Zwahlen — 8 Jun 1999 12:00:00 GMT

I am trying to get information about a Louis/Lewis Atkins who was born in Va. on May 5, 1785 but married Elizabeth Monroe in Granger Co. Tenn. in 1804. All I've read is that he is from Virginia and possibly had a brother Richard, who migrated to Missouri and nothing else. I would like more info on his ancestors.

Also his son Elige b May 4, 1814 who was married to Elizabeth Mullens, had a son named William "Arch"(er?)Atkins around 1849 who married Sarah Catherine Booker in Union Co. Tenn. Some sources say she remarried to a Jasper Hickle around 1800. Others say she married Jasper before William Arch. I know that she and Willim "Arch"(er?) had four children---Cordeala b 1871 m A. J. Frost, Mary Ann b 1873 m W. E. Hickle, Gidion Frank b 1875 and William Archie 1877. I also have read that Sarah had two daughters by Jasper Hickle. They are reported to be Laura R. Hickle b Jun 1880 and Margie M. Hickle b Jan 1883 all in Union Co. Tenn but I can't say this info is correct because of the discrepancy in the order of the marriages. I have no idea what happened to the two girls from this Hickle union nor do I know what happened to the two girls from the Atkins union except they were married. I know that Gidion Frank and William Archie migrated to Lincoln Co., KY and this is where their family is today. Gidion Frank is my Great Grandfather.

While the dates above make me believe that William Arch was still in Union Co. when Sara supposedly married Jasper, I'm not sure. Did he die and if so where is he buried? I have no information on what happened to William Arch (er?)Atkins, Jasper Hickle or Sarah Catherine Booker or their daughters. It's like they just disappeared. If anyone has any information on the people I have listed above I would appreciate it if you would share. I have lots of info to exchange also if any one wants it. Thanks.

John Turner m. Martha Jane Moore

ecjonesorg — 3 Jun 2007 3:17:08 GMT

I'm seeking anyone who has seen a set of tombstones for my greatgreatgrandparents John Turner who married a Martha Jane Moore. His wife's name is unclear because of loss of information over the years. Their children were buried in the Fincastle Cem just outside Union county in Claiborne county. Despite this, I believe that John Turner and his wife is buried somewhere inside Union County.

Boruff/Bourff Campbell Union and Claiborne Counties

amandabourff — 5 Jul 2006 2:26:08 GMT

I have been doing research on the Boruff Surname for quite sometime and I have my direct line as far back as I can, but now I am trying to fill in all of the siblings, and all of the gaps in between. I need information on Brown L. Miracle who was married to my great aunt Cleo Bourff.

I am also looking for any information on Mary Ann Cinnamon Boruff who was married to James Franklin Boruff from Union Co. TN. Her Death cert. shows that her father was Beng. Who was her first husband? where is she from originally?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Pruitt family

ABCShanks — 17 Jul 2007 3:14:28 GMT

I am researching a branch of my husband's family. I have Ulysess S Grant Pruitt (1889-1976) who married Ida Mae Tutt (1892-1963). They were married 1908 in Union County, and some of their children were born in Union (others in Webster Co.). Their children include: Unknown Infant (b/d. bet 1908-1910), Twins Admiral Dewey and Ulysses (b. Sep 10, 1911, Ulysses died the next day), Flora Belle (b. Oct 22, 1913), Luella (b. Oct 12, 1915), Ruby May (b. Mar 19, 1918), John Ross (b. Mar 23, 1921), Iclico (sp?) (b. Jan 8, 1923, d. bef. 1930), Mary Jane (b. Aug 18, 1924), Arvel (b. Aug 18, 1927), and James Richard (b. Nov 18, 1932). There is information on other children, but these are the ones I could find the most concrete information on.

Ulysses S Grant Pruitt is the son of Jiles (Giles) M Pruitt and Susan Williams. I have limited information on his parents. Ida Mae Tutt is the daughter of Benjamin F Tutt and Margaret Amanda Farmer. I have a little more info on her family.

I am interested in either ancestors or descendants on either side to add to my tree.

Blessings,
Abigail Beth (Cooley) Shanks

Cemetery and TVA Dam

Marcia_Luzier — 17 Nov 2006 10:46:17 GMT

My mother tells a story about one of her cousins having to come back to Union County to have his father's grave moved when a TVA Dam was built. The relative is now buried in Mossy Springs Cemetery. I would guess this might have been maybe in the 1930's. Does anyone know about a cemetery that was moved because of a dam and where it would have been?

John Clements/Clemons/Clemins/Clemmons-born 1809

Brenda — 22 Jan 2006 6:49:52 GMT

I am searching for a John Clemons, who married Nancy Ellison in Union County, Tennessee in 1854. She was nearly twenty years younger than he. After 1858 John had fathered 3 daughters and no other record can be found about him. He may have come from Augusta, Wythe, Fincastle, or one of the bordering Virginia counties to Tennessee, or he may have been born in Tennessee. I am also looking in Laurens, North Carolina and South Carolina. I have no idea of which Clements, Clemons, Clemins, Clemmons family he came from, so if anyone has a John Clemons, whose mother may have been named Francis, or Fanny, please contact me. I have been searching for him for 7 years with no success.

Ever heard of "Dark Hollar" TN?

I'm trying to locate where this area is/was and what it is near. My mom doesn't know the official name of the area. It was just always known as "Dark Hollar" because it was dark and deep in the hills of TN aka a "hollar".

Trent - Collins Relationship

BobLeach279 — 31 Jul 2001 3:23:14 GMT

Can anyone help with the following?
Searching for the relationship of Jeremiah TRENT and Milley COLLINS: In the 1860 Union County, TN census: (all born in TN)
Jeremiah TRENT, age 40, daylabourer
Polly, age 60, home
Alamanda, age 31 (age was smeared but I believe it is 31) domestic
Milley COLLINS, age 8
Lovicy J. Seals, age 4

My great grandmother was Millie Collins and I haven't been able to find her in any census. She was from east TN area of Anderson, Campbell, Clairborne, Hancock, Hawkins , or Union County. She was married to (1) John FIELDS and (2) Lewis BOLDEN/BOLIN/BOWLIN that I know about but can find no records on. I don't have any birth, death or marriage dates on any of the above people. Millie and John FIELDS had the following children; Florence (1879?), Ed (1887?), Bird (1887), Cora (1891), and Milford (1892).
Millie divorced John (date unk) and married Lewis BOLDEN (date unk but around 1900). Lewis was evidently an abusive step father. Sometime around 1900, Bird, age 13 at the time, killed Lewis with an axe as he was drunk and beating on her brother Ed, who was crippled from an accident and couldn't defend himself. This happened in Hancock or Claiborne County I believe. Haven't found any record of this either. Family stories say she was real small and when they took her to jail for her own protection from Lewis' family, she slipped through the bars of the cell and went back home. I don't think she was ever charged with any crime.

Any help in proving any of this saga of relationships will be deeply appreciated.
