Hi all, I'm so excited I had to share this with everyone. My ggg, as I stated before, James Napoleon MYERS b. Apr 1839 (TN) has been the biggest mystery to so many researchers on this line, including me. I'v got Napoleon on the brain! Well, Sevierville County Courthouse is no online and taking orders freely over the internet - thank god I no longer have to write to them. I also spoke with a Donna Allen in Sevierville around X-mas time, a true genealogist/historian of the area and a direct descendant of John A. MYERS, son of Dr. Christopher MOYERS of Jefferson Co., TN. She is adament that James Napoleon was the son of Suzannah MOYERS, Dr. Christopher's sister; both children of James David MOYERS and Mary Polly BLACKBURN. But I'm a little confused. I know you guys can figure this out for me. So here's what they just wrote to me. My question to all of you is this: Is the below mentioned John A. MYERS, once a MOYERS of White Pine John Alexander "JR." ? son of John A. MOYERS and Nancy GANN? I swear I found a Nancy and John in the 1900 census Sevier Co., TN aged abt 72/74 yrs of age appears with their dau living with them under the name CHAMBERS with children. I'm trying to figure this out. I thought that John Alexander MOYERS was the son of Dr. Christopher MOYERS of White Pine? Any takers? Hello, In answer to your reference question of 3-13-01 the following was found James Napoleon Myers shows up her in 1880 census in Sevier County we know very little on him other than He is buried in Little Cove church along with John A. Myers the family has always said that John A. and James Napoleon are 1st cousins but this is only here say. It is good here say though Donna Allen who is designed from John A. has a ledger that John's father kept it explains that the family changed the name from Moyers to Myers to anglicize the name. John A. states that his father came from PA and his mother from Ireland his father John was a Lutheran Minister in the White Pine Community in what is now Hamblin County the ledger that I spoke of came from him, it tells of the families track down from PA to the Tennessee area. As fare as we can peace things together Rev. John and his brother (Unknown) came to East Tennessee together and settled in the Wataga area of Greene Co. Tennessee there John A. and James Napoleon were born. I am giving you Donna Allen address and Phone number who is off John A. May be she can shed some light on the tree.
