Outland (born 1815) CHILDREN: Andrew Jackson Hicks I have a copy of an old news paper clipping that says: CIVIL WAR GUN- A Denton Navy 6-cap .44 gun used in the civil war by his great-grandfather is now the proud possession of Woodrow Hicks of Murry, Ky. The gun was used by Andrew Jackson Hicks while he was a member of Duckworth's Cavalry. Still in working order, the pistol was used for target practice recently when Hicks, above left, was visited by his cousin, Gerald McFerren of Marthaville. At right is McFerren's son, Huey holding an old sabre, also owned by Hicks, orgininally came from North Carolina and married and Indian squaw who is a cousin of Powhatan. He and his two brothers settled in Kentucky and Mississippi. Now I can't find this indian swquaw.hmm. Please email me with any info. Thanks lorinda@lorinda.org
