Hi guys I have been communicating with cousins of mine from my Eliza Jane Smith Moore line about early migrations from the late 1700s to early 1800s of our families. In our discussion; I made note of an area in early Orange Co., North Carolina called the The Ridge. This area was heavily populated until the early 1800s with various tribes. We all know the story of White migrations and the eventual removal of the tribes? If my history is correct; parts of The Ridge was redistricted either formulating Sumner Co., Tennessee and later Carroll County or directly into the boundaries of Carroll County. Can't seem to remember which it was? Anyway..............I do have that my Elisha Smothers was found on the Tax List for 1821 Sumner County, Tennessee. I found this in my notes from an older correspondence and unfortunately did not save the author's name. Do you believe it? But, even in my early research, I just knew this information and the names of these gentlemen might prove to be instrumental in finding the birth name of Elisha Smothers' first wife; Sarah. She is my direct. <<My ggggrandmother Catherine Beaver(s) b.1789 in NC married John Stowers Jan 29 1810 in Caswell Co.NC. They moved to Sumner Co. TN shortly after that time. Stowers died @June 1819 and the following Beaver(s) were listed on the sale bill: Jessie, James and Sabra? Beaver. According to census records John and Catherine had 5 children. The only one I know of is John C. who was born the same year his father died. Catherine moved to Macon Co, TN and married unknown Canady. She died after 1850. Can anyone help me identify Catherine's family? Also the following people were listed on the sale bill: Daniel, Joseph and Owen Sullivan, John and James Carr, John Mills, Price Martin, Tandy Duncan, Elisha Smothers, Edward Williams, Lemuel and William Stubblefield, Jessie Flippin, and Ashley Alsop? Hughes. >> As you can see, Elisha is named on a Bill of Sale. Can anyone of you all interrupt what exactly this is saying to me? Aaah..........found this, too? Note regarding the early Smothers family: Carroll Co., Tennessee was formed in 1821 from Indian land. No one was allowed to settle in that area until after that date. There were four brothers, Jacob, John, Elisha and William that settled in Carroll Co., Tennessee in 1822. Jacob and John were born in North Carolina and Elisha and William were born in Tennessee. Tennessee was formed from North Carolina in 1796. So, Jacob and John were born before that date, 1796. Elisha and William, after that date, 1796. 1816 -Sumner County, Tennessee Record of Taxable Property and Polls in Sumner Co., Tennessee Ely Smothers 16 Goose Creek 1817 -Sumner County, Tennessee Record of Taxable Property and Polls in Sumner Co., Tennessee Eli Smothers 16 Goose Creek 1818 -Sumner County, Tennessee Record of Taxable Property and Polls in Sumner Co., Tennessee Elihu ?

The 1820 Sumner County, Tennessee Federal Census was alphabetized and therefore did not indicate location in the county for the families listed. Elisha is not on this list, telling me that he had migrated to Carroll Co. by 1826. 1830 Carroll County, Tennessee Smuthers, Elisha ----- # 168 1832 Carroll County, Tennessee Smuthers, Elisha 1840 Census Carroll County, Tennessee Elisha Smothers ----- # 71 1850 Carroll County, Tennessee 23 July 1860 Marion Co., Arkansascensus, Page 658, Barren Creek Township, PO-Buffalo City ID #AR126239013: SMOTHERS, Elisha 60 m w farmer 1000/445 TN widower Note: Sarah died before the 1860 census, but family historians say that she made the migration to Marion Co., Arkansas with her husband and children.

The land for this old cemetery was donated by Elisha Smothers for the use. So, I need a fresh perspective on my research. These years are important in attempting to verify what the birth name of Elisha Smothers' first wife; Sarah's was. Smothers researchers BELIEVE that they married circa 1820 in Sumner Co., Tennessee. Is she connected to one of the surnames in that Bill of Sale? Bernie Moore-Knowles Papa'aloa, Hawai'i "I have Indian blood in me.

Crawford is the wife of Robert C. Crawford who is buried in the Mammoth Cemetery in Ozark Co. If my memory serves me correctly, her husband passed away either during surgery, or after complications due to the surgery, which took place at West Plains. Truman, his wife Christana, and Marshall are all buried at Mammoth Cemetery also. Their daughter, Eunice married Woodsen Messick, and I assume they were buried at Mtn. Home; they lived at Mtn. Home. Marshall and his wife Hazel Simpson Crawford had the store and gas station at the Arkansas-Missouri line at Highway 201, then later at Clarkridge. Truman and his wife Christana Wheeler Crawford operated the grocery store and post office at Clarkridge for many years. I do not know the Simms family. Nina

Thank You dear friend for helping me out on this. I was of the opinion that Truman and Marshall were the same ones I remember but I just wasn't positive. Do you recall when the tornado blew the store away ?? What year was that ? I'll keep hunting for this Paris Simms--he had to be at least a family friend to be a pallbearer.
