"John and Robert Looney served in American Militia in the Frontier Wars, 1790-1796. on roll of Hugh Beard's Co of Guards at the Treaty of Holston near mouth of the French Broad, May 28-July 11, 1791, as privates." Joyce From my correspondence with Elizabeth Looney for many years, I would identify the John and Robert Looney (above) at the Treaty of Holston as the sons of Capt John Looney and Elizabeth Renfroe. (Capt John Looney, son of Robert 2). They were young men at that time----Robert should have been about 18-19 years, born in Augusta Co, VA c. 1774 (my ggg grandfather). This elusive Robert Looney married Susannah Williams and moved to Cumberland Co, Ky, where he died c. 1820-1821. John Looney moved with his father, Capt John Looney, to Warren Co, TN, then to Maury Co,TN, served as a Sgt. in the War of 1812, then moved to St Clair Co, AL, where he lived with the rest of his family until his death c. 1827. Elizabeth Looney and Tilton believe that Capt John Looney, father of John and Robert in the above record, was the John Looney who signed the Cumberland Pact. Wish we had more records from early Washington Co, TN. The Presbyterian Archives at Montreat could have early church records of East Tn that would give positive identification of these numerous LOONEYS in late 1700 Tennessee. Elizabeth
