For got who was searching the above surname, but I found this in a book "Highlans, North Carolina...a walk into the past" by Gert McIntosh. Maybe it will help. Libby "Benson Picklesimer moved into Clear Creek in 1853 and his oldest son, Thomas Picklesimer, moved from Clear Creek to Whiteside Cove in 1865. His cescendants live there and in other places around Highlands today." " Around 1909 , alarge number of families in the Horse Cove and Whiteside Cove areas migrated westward, seeking employment and a better education. Some returned, others lived out their lives in Montana or Wyoming. Tom Picklesimer of Whiteside Cove, who is 75 years old, still visits Wyoming, where he owns many acresof ranch land, almost every year."
