I have traced this Spring Hill Anderson County TN Clan to the immigrant ancestor James Coward (1660) who came to VA. See my posting for Thomas (b. 1783), Isaac (b1791), and John Coward (b. 1794) posted in 2004 on this board. Joseph J Coward buried at Spring Hill is a decendant of Thomas Coward (1783) who migrated from Kershaw County SC to Anderson County TN abt 1810. The Old John Coward (b1827) buried at Spring Hill is the son of Thomas (1783).
