    2. Ann E. Robinson (1819-1887), were born in Virginia according to census records and oral family history. No data is available on Ann's parents at this time. Oral family history indicates that the two families knew each other in Virginia. Also that the Robinson family and their future son-in-law migrated from Virginia to Tennessee together. All of John and Ann's children and some of their spouses are shown in an estate settlement for Ann in Lincoln County Tennessee (1901). The author found another Lina Chapman listed in Virginia genealogical records, she could possibly have been the grandmother of the author's grand-mother Lina Chapman; but proof has not been found to date to make a connection. Harkin Line: The author has been unable to develop much information on his Harkin line. Jane Harkin (Abt 1789-1863) was the wife of Ephraim King, the author's double great-grandfather. They were married about 1807, most likely in the Pendleton District of South Carolina. According to oral family history, they had known each other earlier when both lived in Lincolnton County North Carolina; but the author has been unable to find data to support the oral history. Additional data may be found in a court case in Lincoln County Tennessee where her estate settlement in 1865 was contested by some of her children. Mitchell Line: Isabella Emaline (Ibby) (Eliza ) Mitchell (1822-1906) was the author's great grandmother on the King side of his family tree. She married Andrew Jackson King in 1839 in Lincoln County Tennessee. Her father was Elijah (Eli) Mitchell (Abt 1800-?) and her mother was Permelia Glide-well (Abt 1802-?). Both parents were apparently born in North Carolina. She was buried in the King family cemetery near Petersburg, Tennessee. Glidewell Line: Permelia Glidewell (Abt 1802-?) was alive in 1880 when her daughter Eliza King indicated that she was born in North Carolina in the June 1880 U. S. Census. Another researcher indicates that she was the daughter of Nash Glidewell of Virginia, but the author has been unable to fully confirm that connection. Cloud Allied Families: There have been a number of genealogical books written about our Cloud family lines. They are available in most large genealogical libraries, so I will only mention a couple of allied lines for our Cloud line. Additional data is also available in Appendix B of this book. Wall Line: The author's grandmother on the Cloud side of his family tree was named Fannie Lacy Wall ((1863-1946). She was the daughter of Thaddaus Alfred Wall (1818-1877) and his wife Rebecca Higdon (1814-1884), both of the Madison County area of Alabama. Grandmother Fannie was a small woman, somewhat like the author's mother who is described later in this book. The author received a copy of the vital data pages of his great grandfather Alfred Wall's family bible from his cousin, Charles Hamilton of Nashville, Tennessee. It lists all of his nine children and most of their spouses. There were apparently two Alfred Wall families living in Madison County Alabama during the same time period as the author's great grandparent, so it had been difficult to separate them in available records. As a child the author became acquainted with a couple of his mother's cousins on the Wall side of his family tree. There names were Alice and Annie Wall, children of Peter Binford Wall (1860-1941) and his wife Cherry Clarkie Turner ((1860-?). Alice was married to a man named Aday and Annie to a Barnard. More data on this family line is available from the author. Higdon Line: Rebecca Higdon (1814-1884) was married in 1842 to the author's great grandfather Thaddeus Wall mentioned above. Very little data has been found of her in the archives of Madison County Alabama. However, considerable data is available on Higdon's in adjacent counties. But so for the author has been unable to document a connection. Hardin Line: Alice (Alis) Hardin was born about 1730-4 in Prince William County, Virginia. She was married to my triple great grandfather William Cloud (1728-1810) around 1751. She was most likely his second wife. They lived in the Fairfield District (County) of South Carolina. Her father was a Frenchman named Mark Hardin Jr. of Virginia. .
