Since Polly Webb and Martha Billingsley are related I think William and Bazel are brothers. In Fact, I think Van and Susannah Davis are also related. All these women come from John and Mary Page Roberts from Tennessee. I would love to share with you. JR Roberts Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I just wish I had information on John Columbus' whereabouts. Information from another cousin is that he is buried in an unmarked grave up around Oliver Springs, supposedly with Dora Alice. What we have is that he was a Baptist preacher at Mt. Pisgah Baptist church on Hen Valley Road near Oliver Springs in the late 19th century. No sign of him there in their cemetery. Also, he was living with Laura's family in 1920, whose husband was a coal miner at that time. If he was still there at his death in 1926, I imagine money was so tight that there was none for a marker. I'm thinking lately that he may be at the Miner's Circle cemetery in Briceville, I believe is the name of the town. Also, if Dora was buried in her Smith family cemetery, that may be on the Oak Ridge property now, and he could be there. I'll be glad to share whatever I have. I've found 5 cousins on here now, but seems we're all as clueless as the next. There doesn't seem to be any written history, Bibles, on this family, although they were literate for the most part. My grandfather, Arthur Lee, always claimed he was descended from a queen of England according to his father, so that tells me they had some education to know that story. If you have anything on John Columbus' death, I would love to know. I've even worked up Lizzie's family and traced them as much as I can. I've planned a trip to East Tennessee all winter, but weather has been crazy up there this year! I'm afraid I've been so into this, that when I do go to Oliver Springs, I'm expecting everyone to still be driving horse and buggies and wearing hoop skirts ... LOL! Also, there is a Rev. War Patriot in Isaac's line, just can't make heads or tails out of papers sent me by another cousin. Good luck and so great to hear from you!

I'm impressed that you are using Ancestry! I only wish we knew more. I worked on this line a lot a few years ago trying to find the Cherokee connection. It's very difficult if you don't know their Native American name. I also talked to Deloreis quite a bit, but that was probably ten years ago before her husband died. John Lawson was married first to a Catherine Works, who died about 1851, then he was remarried to Harriet Ann Poole. I found a will for his former sister-in-law Elizabeth Works, and it states that John Lawson was deceased (by 1868). Terah was born in 1863, so his death would be in that time frame. He may have died in the Civil War, but I have never found him on any records. I am also of the mind that he was Cherokee, rather than Harriet. I'll email you directly!

My Grandmother was Tera(Turah) Alabama Lawson married to William Preston Shirley. My Grandmother was one half Cherokee. She never sat with her feet on the floor. She had a little rocker without arms. she would sit down, draw her feet up under her and rock herself to sleep. It was a marvel to watch as she never tipped over. In her garden she built little teepee shaped protection around certain plants. They were made of corn stalks. I found that very fascinating. I have found postings that say "Chief Standing Deer" was Harriett's Father. I hope it's true. I only regret that I didn't ask more questions when I was little. I was 13 when my Granny died and had no interest in genealogy, at that time. I am now 85 and the only one left in my immediate family.
