I have transcribed and posted to my website the petition to sell the land of Paul Bratton, dec., of Hardin County, Tennessee. The direct link to the page is http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~jwmurphy/pbratton.htm. Someone recently ask about Paul Bratton's will. He died intestate which means he did not leave a will. If a person died intestate and owned property, you will either find an Estate Settlement, Petition to Sell Land or a Deed which will name the children or heirs. I should say you will find them if the records still exist for the county in question. In Tennessee, the estate settlements are found in Chancery Court (C&M) while petitions to sell land are in County Court. Jerry W.

The children of Paul Bratton and Sarah Clark were: 1. Sarah Rachel Bratton (b. 1801), wife of Silas Rose. 2. Thomas Bratton (b. 1803). 3. William Milliken "Mick" Bratton (b. 1812). 4. Benjamin S. "Cuff" Bratton (b. 1815). 5. Clara Bratton, wife of Charles Brady. 6. Sterling Bratton (b. c1820). 7. Sarah "Sally" Bratton (b. 1823), wife of John Eoff. 8. Martha Ann Bratton (b. 1825), wife of Thomas G. Massey. 9. Hannah Bratton (b. 1826), wife of Jesse Sanders. 10. John Bratton (b. 1828). 11. Fannie Bratton (b. c1828), wife of Richard Tilley. 12. Nancy C. Bratton (b. 1829), wife of John Columbus Tilley. The children of Paul Bratton and Mary/Martha "Patsy"_______ were: 13. Paul Bratton, Jr. (b. 1831). 14. Polly Paralee Bratton (b. 1831), wife of John Ferguson. 15. Abagail E. "Abbie" Bratton (b. 1836). 16. Robert Jack Bratton (b. 1838). 17. Disa C. "Dicey" Bratton (b. 1840), wife of Daniel Wilkerson. I think #6 Sterling Bratton and #10 John Bratton may be the same person but no proof yet. These children are named in the Paul Bratton estate settlement found in Hardin County, Tennessee by the late Jo Alice Morey, except Sterling, which shows up in other records from Hardin County, Tennessee.

They had two children Rita Marama Peace Draper (Batten) July 16th 1919 at Gnosall and Alec Bratton Draper born in New Zealand. I am a child of Rita and wish to start building a family tree of this side of the family. Thank you Margaret Allen wj-ml.allen@xtra.co.nz
