Larry, Steve, and others interested in Wilkes Co NC MITCHELLs, I have recently found evidence that leads me to believe there is a possibility my John MITCHELL (b ca 1775) of Claiborne Co TN may have been from Wilkes Co NC. There are various ties with my John MITCHELL to the CLOUD, MILLS, CARPENTER, and SPRADLING families in Hawkins, Hancock, Grainger, and Claiborne Co TN. The MILLS, SPRADLINGs, and CARPENTERs were from Wilkes Co NC. My question is: Can anyone identify one John MITCHELL (b 1774-1784) who appears in the 1800 Wilkes Co NC census, but is not there in the 1810 census? Is this the same John MITCHELL who appears in Claiborne Co TN 1830-1850 and died there before 1860? Imogene Bennett Springfield, MO Imogene.Bennett@att.net
