Hi Nina, Yes, I wondered what had happened to you I hadn't heard from you in several months then I got a nasty Computer virus and had to just about start back from scratch so I would say it has been at least 14 months or longer since we last shared any information. I am still working on the Craig and Johnson lines as well as this one from VA and Union County,TN. William Isaac Johnson m.Henrieta Patsy Branson they had a son named James Johnson who m. Patsy Savage their daughter Emeline (Millie) Barthenia Johnson b.January 07, 1834 m.Henry Coleman Walton Back to the William A. "Bill" Craig b.Union County d.May 01, 1924 Beach Grove who married Malinda J. Johnson b.April 1866 Campbell Co, TN and d.1939 Beech Grove, TN and her father was one Benjamin E. "Ben" Johnson. I know that your Craig and Johnson Lines were also from Union County. Then I am working the Edmund Johnston/Johnson line from Annandale, Dumfriedshire, Scotland who died in Isle of Wight Co, VA. This line is related to my Bales/Beals lines. Jesse Henderson Johnson of Union Co m. Harriet Minerva Bales a daughter of Isaac Martin Bales and Harrietta Minerva Gaines. Then I have Richard Montgomery 'GUM' Johnson b.March 22, 1867 d.October 07, 1934 in Knoxville m. Mary Jane Gray These are from my Maternal side and are my Great Great Grandparents and as per Funeral home records are buried at Island Ford Cemetery in Lake City,TN. All together I have five lines of Johnson's that I am trying to sort through but I do believe that they are all related if I can just make the right connections and links. Also it hasn't helped much when you start checking and you learn that 85% of the Court Houses in East TN burnt up at one time or the other.

Hey, Cuz John. Remind me which "Miss Johnson" you are referring to. I work on so many lines, but as you know, the JOHNSONs are one of my main lines. Last year we sold our home in Pittsburgh and moved to our home in Florida so we could paint, etc. and then we sold that house and Mike started working in TN. Needless to say, it was a "lost" genealogy year for me, but I'm now happy to be back doing what I love. Went to Knoxville back in the fall for a weekend and got to meet Elizabeth Johnson Russell and her husband, Frank. Also attend the Walnut Grove Reunion and met a lot of new friends and one special cousin plus got to see my aunt and uncle that I hadn't seen in way over 40 years. So many more cousins to catch up with. Let me know about Miss Johnson. Nina

Jerry, I will always be spoofed by my father talking about a Jonathan owning land that was sold to him by James when James sold some land to Jonathan and Tobias Peters in the early deeds. Seems like David was involved in those transactions also. Then, land was traded among them all. I figured it was the 600 acres James started out with and sold to the others. Jonathan of 1795-6 would have been too young. So, what happened to that Jonathan that my father talked about? Seems like there was a Jonathan living with relatives in the 1830 Census who was 60-70 yrs. old. Wonder who he was? Was he sometimes called John, I've wondered, as in the John in your 1806 tab below? Most researchers have concluded that Johnathan Luppy Sr. was the son of William, but I've always wondered about that older Johnathan or John in 1805 #123, and John with 50 acres in 1806 in Capt. Oliver's Company. Melton Scarbrough ( deceased) of Lenoir City also wondered about that.

I have for several years researched the 1802 and 1805 tax lists for Anderson County. I recently discovered that Mary Harris has a book at the courthouse with an 1806 tax list. Here are some entries of personal interest to me from all three tax list. Remember that I am a Peter researcher but not really a Scarbrough researcher except to the extent that the Scarbroughs interact with the Peters (which is frequently!). A List of Taxable property and polls in Capt Haile's Compy taken by Gibson Harden Esquire 1802. Peters, Henry 1 white poll Peters, Tobias 1 white poll Scarbrough, James 600 acres Clinch R 1 white poll Scarbrough, David 1 white poll Footnote: James Scarbrough operated a ferry on Clinch River: early justice of the peace and member of family from whom the village of Scarborough was named (now in Oak Ridge). Minutes, June 14, 18O2 1805 (probably listed by militia company, but the militia commanders were not identified -- the Peters and the Scarbroughs were in the same grouping) #117 Henry Peters #118 Tobias Peters #120 William Scarbro #121 James Scarbro #122 David Scarbro #123 John Scarbro #124 Samuel Scarbro Capt Oliver's Company, 1806 Peters, Henry 100 acres 1 poll Peters, Tobias 1 poll Peters, Henry Jun. 120 acres 1 poll Scarbro, Robert 120 acres Clinch 1 poll Scarbro, William 227 acres RB Scarbro, David 1 poll Scarbro, John 50 acres Clinch 1 poll Scarbro, James 580 acres Clinch 1 poll Capt Adair's Company, 1806 Peters, James 1280 acres Peters, Elizabeth J. 640 acres First, here are some comments on the Peters. 1. The Henry and Tobias Peters in 1802, 1805, and 1806 were Tobias Peters Sr. and Henry Peters Sr. They were the founders of the Peters family in Anderson County (or at least the branch of the family in the Scarbrough community, see below for a possible second branch). They moved to what is now Anderson County in 1797 with the Scarbroughs. 2. The 1806 tax list (new to me) added Henry Peters Jr. That was a surprise. It was a surprise because I thought he was born about 1795 in Greenbrier County, Virginia. Hence, he would have been too young in 1806 to own land and pay taxes. He was 55 years old in the 1850 census, suggesting a birth date of 1795. He was 59 years old in the 1860 census, suggesting a birth date of 1801. He was 75 years old in the 1870 census, suggesting a birth date of 1795. If you go back to the 1840 census, he was 40-49, suggesting a birth date of 1791-1800. If you go back to the 1830 census, he was 40-49 suggesting a birth date of 1781-1790. The earliest census age is usually the most accurate. I probably should have taken his age in the 1830 more seriously. But it was sufficiently discordant with the rest of his census entries that I tended not to believe it. Of course, the flip side of this is that his parents were married in 1788 (this is documented in court house records in Virginia). So now I'm thinking that he was born close to 1788. His brother Thomas was born in 1790 (from his tombstone and from census records, and they are fairly consistent). So maybe Henry Jr. was the first son and Thomas was the second son instead of the vice versa as I had previously believed. 3. James Peters and Elizabeth J. Peters in Capt. Adair's Company in 1806 were a distinctly unpleasant surprise, because I have no idea who they were. I'm wondering if perhaps they were living in the Powell Valley area. If I understand correctly, Powell Valley ceased to be a part of Anderson County after Campbell County was created in 1806. Does anybody know where Capt. Adair's Company might have been located geographically within Anderson County? Part of the interest associated with Powell Valley in Anderson County is that other Peters researchers have reported a James Peters living in Powell Valley very early on. These researchers claim a Silas Peters b. 1817 as one of their own, with Silas having been the son of James Henry Peters and Nancy Peters (first cousins who married). I have long looked for such a James Peters in Anderson County, but until the 1806 tax list I had never found any evidence of him in Anderson County. As I have reported on this list before, I believe that there is an Anderson County deed that is proof positive that Silas Peters born 1817 was the son of Tobias Peters Sr. and Elizabeth Rachel Scarbrough of Anderson County. So I wonder if there was only one Silas Peters and the James Henry Peters and Nancy Peters researchers are claiming him in error, or if maybe there were two different Silas Peters both born about 1817. I do have to say that there is a remarkable coincidence of commonality in the given names for descendents of Tobias Peters Sr. and James Henry Peters. Both had a Silas Peters (well, maybe!). Both had a Tobias Peters (b.1812 for the son of James Henry, b.1819 for the son of Tobias). Both had a Jason Peters (b.1815 for the son of James Henry, b. 1820 for the son of Tobias). Both had a Newton Peters (b. 1826 for the son of James Henry, b. 1844 for a grandson of James Henry, b. 1871 for a grandson of Tobias). This seems either an extraordinary coincidence, or evidence of common roots between the two families, or else some really confused research. And now I find a James Peters in Anderson County after all. What's a person to do? Second, here are some comments on the Scarbroughs. 1. The Scarbrough community sign says that the Scarbrough family in Anderson County was founded by three brothers, Jonathan, David, and James. Problem is, I cannot find any evidence of such a Jonathan. I believe that the Scarbrough family in Anderson County was founded by three brothers, William, David, and James, sons of Robert S. Scarbrough and Mary Bailey. (I believe that the first Jonathan Scarbrough in Anderson County was Jonathan Lupton Scarbrough Sr., b. 1795, a little young in 1797 to be a founder.) 2. David and James were on the 1802 tax list. 3. David, James, and William were on the 1805 tax list. Also on the 1805 tax list were John and Samuel. I believe that John was John Henry Scarbrough, son of William. David Scarbrough, who is *the* Scarbrough researcher for Anderson County agrees with this analysis. Neither one of us recognize Samuel from the 1805 tax list. 4. David, James, and William were on the 1806 tax list. Also on the 1806 tax list was the aforementioned John (probably John Henry). Finally, the 1806 doesn't have Samuel but does have Robert. I suspect that this Robert was the son of William. But I have the same issue with Robert Scarbrough that I did with Henry Peters Jr. I think this Robert Scarbrough was born about 1790 and hence was too young in 1806 to own land and pay taxes. David Scarbrough and Elizabeth Anderson were married in 1786, a couple of years earlier than Henry Peters Sr. and Elizabeth Wiatte. But again it would be a really tight fit to have Robert Scarbrough, son of David Scarbrough be the one who owned 120 acres in 1806. So Robert Scarbrough's age and Henry Peters Jr.'s age are both mysteries. Jerry Bryan

Horace V. Wells Jr., journalist, crusader CLINTON, Tenn — Horace V Wells Jr., a journalist and publisher who received national honors for his crusade against segregation, died Thursday.

This is all I know on Pickney Burris. Let me apologize for the other email being so strung out. I copied & pasted from word & don't know why it came looked so strange. Fay Descendants of General Pickney Burris Generation No. 1 1. General Pickney1 Burris was born 1843 in Campbell Co, TN, and died April 06, 1909 in Campbell Co, TN.

It is just unreasonable that he could become a father at 82 yrs old. Mary would have been 47, not unreasonable, but I can't believe Elijah is his father. My theory is, he is a grandson of Mary German, or a grandson of Elijah & just raised by them. In the 1880 census he states Mary is his mother. Of course, he would state that, if she raised him. He probably didn't know any different. DEATH CERTIFICATE NUMBER: 4538 Name: G. P.
