In response to Bethylou 14 (John Gann) I am also looking for a John Gilmore in Tenn. Do not know which county they lived in. The one I am looking for was born about1780. His daughter Mary Gilmore married William Daily 3 Sept 1936. I found them on the the 1850 census in Polk County MO, with birth place listed as TN. There was also a Nancy Gilmore living with them at the time who was over 21 and could not read or write. Not sure if it was Mary's mother. I am searching Grainger, Bledsoe, and Dickson Counties at this time for John Gilmore. If you know where your John came from, please let me know. Joyful Bea (Bea Daily in Florida)
