In the late 1700's or early 1800's they migrated from Goochland Virginia down thriugh Ky to North Eastern TN. One of Meshack's daughters Sarah was my 3rd GGM she was born in 1794 in Goochland County VA, I know very little about this family as my research has been sketchy based on family bibles no longer available and family history from a family member who has since passed. I believe Meshack's father was a John b. 1745 VA d. Sevier County TN m. Comfort Malone and they also had 10 kids (again I have names no dates) John's father was Shadrack b. abt 1725 in UK. m. Elizabeth Unknown. I've been meaning to research this line of Hicks' in more detail but they are a sideline my Hicks line migrating from Ireland most likely in the early 1800's.
