OK, the next to final draft of the Indian Depredations in TN 1791 & 1792 is now on-line. I say next to final as I want to print out a copy and give it one more last stare and compare this coming week against the film to see if I can decipher some of the entries which I could not read the first two times. My site URL is: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~familyinformation/ The document will be the first one under the "NEW" section of the main index page. This has turned into more of a detective story than a simple transcript than I imagined it would. Normally when transcribing names I will find a web source to verify that my deciphering of the "old" writing is not in left field. In this case, I got curious as to who some of the people were when first names were not given and also the background information relative to the attacks. Fortunately, the Web has some tremendous resources and I was able to identify many and piece together some of the stories. What you see here is only the first revision as I will be adding other data to the basic framework of the extracted document which will be footnoted and sourced to fill in the gaps. I also have some letters from Gov. Blount to transcribe as well as the reports of Gen. Anthony Wayne on the Battles of Fort Recovery and Fallen Timbers. Have fun looking at the links I provided in the introduction as the contributors at the New River Notes, Sumner County, TN GenWeb, and Eastern TN have put an awful lot of good data out there and deserve kudos. Likely, when this work is finished, it will be contributed to another site. Whether the site is affiliated with me remains to be seen. I have been in intermittant conversations with a friend to start a history only site but work demands on both our parts has kept that from getting off the ground. Hopefully this winter we can get the ball rolling. Until then, we will have to tolerate the pop-ups Ancestry has deemed its free sites deserve. If I sound grumpy on the last, it is largely because I got slapped in the face this morning with the loss of a modern convenience I had taken for granted!! The bloody Sunday newspaper is not here!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A full pot of coffee and all Sunday morning to play with and no paper!! Best of wishes, Billy P.S. Another BIG reason to be grumpy!!! I just (5 minutes ago) had to turn down two FREE tickets to the NASCAR race in town today. Excuse me while I go cry!!
