Brant Boner@BSSBNOTES 01/08/99 01:23 PM Several of you have written with helpful clues for finding my Ggrandmother's line, THANKYOU! The orphan school she attended closed several years ago and I can't find the records - I don't know who would have them. Neither Davidson county Archives or Tennessee State Archives has Fanning Orphan School records. My Ggrandmother's mom (or grandmother) and stepdad seem to just vanish from sight, so I seem to be at a dead end there too. Any other ideas? God bless!!! Brant

Brant Boner@BSSBNOTES 01/08/99 10:04 AM Howdy, I have been trying to locate my Great-grandmother's lineage, but she was orphaned and it has become seemingly impossible as I can't locate the Orphanages records. Here is what I do have: Lelah Yates b. May/Sept. 1894. In 1900 TN census she is listed w/ Dempsy Eakes as follows: Dempsy Eakes b. April 1878 (Stepfather) Lula b. May 1863 (listed as having 2 children ,one still alive). LELAH YATES (5yrs) b Sept 1894. Lula was either LELAH's mother or grandmother, unsure. In 1910 LELAH is listed as living in the FANNING ORPHAN SCHOOL as a "roomer" with Dave Libscomb ( as "ward of the city"). I have been unable to trace Lelah's lineage, as she was orphaned, and I can't find her mother's maiden name. LELAH was married to JOSEPH BONER by 1920. If anyone has info, PLEASE EMAIL ME! God bless!!! Brant

Jefrobo@aol.com, Yes, I do have some material regarding OVERALL-RAMSEY. There is quite a bit of information in a book "Overall" by W. Kiger. I don't have it before me here at the office. I will check into it and get back with you. Do you have OVERALL material? I take it you descend through RAMSEY??

Let me echo what has been said about Arnow's two books about pioneer life in the Cumberland Valley. I have found these two books to be a very interesting way to transport myself back to those times and to relive (in my mind at least) what it must have been like for my early Jenkins ancestors who came into Middle Tennessee in the late 18th century. In addition to amazon.com, one can usually find copies of these books in good secondhand bookstores. I bought my first copy of Arnow's books in a used bookstore in upstate New York several years ago. When I was in Elders Book Store on Elliston Place (close to Vanderbilt) a couple of weeks ago, I noticed several copies of each of the books. They are well-worth the cost for those interested in Middle Tennessee pioneer life. Alton Jenkins Cincinnati, Ohio

Hi Listers- This is in response to several subscribers who asked for more information on the two books from which I quoted yesterday. They are both available from the Amazon.com book site for reasonable prices and great service. Seedtime on the Cumberland, by Harriette Simpson Arnow, 427 pages Flowering of the Cumberland, by Harriette Simpson Arnow, 423 pages Although the author denies her work is of history, it re-creates the aspects of pioneer life as it was lived on the Cumberland. Both books are indexed which makes it easy to look up surnames. Even if your ancestors are not named in the book, it provides insight on what their lives were like if they lived in the Cumberland River Valley area. The book covers the era from the earliest settlers to the very early 1800’s. I will be glad to provide lookups to see if your surname(s) are indexed but may not be able to quote passages if they as extensive as the DRAKE families due to the time it takes. Jeanne Johnson

Good Morning, My first post, though I look at the posts regularly searching for OVERALL information. William O. and Nathaniel O. were signatories to the Cumberland Compact. Arnow's books are great! I found them in my local, midsized, city library You can also find some copies of them at: http://www.bibliofind.com/ Do an author search for Arnow. I have not checked Amazon.com for prices, but the copies listed on bibliofind seem quite good.

Sorry is some of you get this twice. I sent it to the Longhunters list but thought some of you might like to read it also. The following is an excerpt from a history of Davidson Co, TN about the Longhunters. I don't know how accurate it is, but it does make interesting reading. My children are descendants of John Rains, who is named in the account. Debie Cox Nashville History of Davidson County, Tennessee, with Illustrations and Biographical Sketches of Its Prominent Men and Pioneers, by Prof. W. W. Clayton, J. W. Lewis & Co., Philadelphia, 1880, Reproduced by Higginson book Company, 1996, p. 15. "The Long Hunters" The following account of the "Long Hunters" with a few slight changes, is quoted from Ramsey's "Annals of Tennessee": "On the 2d of June, 1769, a large company of adventurers was formed for the purpose of hunting and exploring in what is now Middle Tennessee. As the country was discovered and settled by the enterprise and defended by the valor of these first explorers, we choose to give their names, the places from which they came, and such details of their hazardous journeyings as have been preserved. "May the time never come when the self-sacrificing toil and the daring hardihood of the pioneers of Tennessee will be forgotten or undervalued by their posterity. The company consisted of more than twenty men, some of them from North Carolina, others from the neighborhood of the Natural Bridge, and others from the infant settlement near Inglis' Ferry in Virginia. The names of some of them follow: John Rains, Kasper Mansker, Abraham Bledsoe, John Baker, Joseph Drake, Obadiah Terrill, Uriah Stone, Henry Smith, Ned Cowan, Robert Crockett. The place of rendezvous was eight miles below Fort Chissel on New River. They came by the head of Holston, and crossing the north fork, Clinch and Powell's Rivers, and passing through Cumberland Gap, discovered the southern part of Kentucky, and fixed a station-camp at a place since called Price's Meadow, in Wayne County, where they agreed to deposit their game and skins. The hunters here dispersed in different directions, the whole company still traveling to the southwest. They came to Roaring River and the Cany fork at a point far above the mouth and somewhere near the foot of the mountain. Robert Crockett was killed near the head- waters of Roaring River when returning to the camp, provided for two or three days' traveling; the Indians were there in ambush and fired upon and killed him. The Indians were traveling to the north, seven or eight in company. Crockett's body was found on the war-track leading from the Cherokee Nation towards the Shawnee tribe. All the country through which these hunters passed was covered with high grass; no traces of any human settlement could be seen, and the primeval state of things reigned in unrivaled glory, though under dry caves, on the side of creeks, they found many places where stones were set up that covered large quantities of human bones; these were also found in the caves, with which the country abounds. They continued to hunt eight or nine months, when part of them returned in April 1770. "The return of Findley and Boone to the banks of the Yadkin, and of the explorers whose journal has just been given to their several homes, produced a remarkable sensation. Their friends and neighbors were enraptured with the glowing descriptions of the delightful country they had discovered, and their imaginations were inflamed with the account of the wonderful products which were yielded in such bountiful profusion. The sterile hills and rocky uplands of the Atlantic country began to lose their interest when compared with the fertile valleys beyond the mountains. A spirit of further exploration was thus excited in the settlements on New River, Holston, and Clinch, which originated an association of about forty stout hunters, for the purpose of hunting and trapping west of Cumberland Mountains. Equipped with their rifles, traps, dogs, blankets, and dressed in the hunting shirt, leggins, and moccasins, they commenced their arduous enterprise in the real spirit of hazardous adventure, through the rough forest and rugged hills. The names of these adventurers are not now known. The expedition was led by Col. James Knox. The leader and nine others of the company penetrated to the lower Cumberland, and making there an extensive and irregular circuit, adding much to their knowledge of the country, after a long absence returned home. They are known as the "Long Hunters.' "

My thanks for posting the most interesting passages from that great book. I wonder if it might be available somewhere? Can we look forward to more - I hope? This, again, reminds us what our forefathers (and mothers, too) suffered every day, so that we might enjoy the fruits of their labor and sacrifices, and live in this wonderful country. Thank you :-) Dolores *** ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

>From the book, “Seedtime on the Cumberland” by Harriette Simpson Arrow, 1960, University of Nebraska Press, Lincoln BENJAMIN DRAKE: Pg. 219: “There were also Haydon WELLS, and William and Benjamin DRAKE, all borderers and seasoned woodsmen.” (This is the last sentence in the paragraph about Cumberland bound travelers, abt. 1779 time frame.) Pg. 319: In a footnote: “The first Davidson County Grand Jury, not chosen until January 1784, ibid., 4, was made up almost entirely of first settlers - Haydon WELLS, John BUCHANAN, Benjamin DRAKE, James MULHERRIN, William GOWER, and others.” DR. DANIEL DRAKE: Pg. 352: In a footnote: “Dr. Daniel DRAKE wore a wool hat as a boy in Kentucky in the 1790's, Drake, Letters, 76.” (Subject matter of this page was pioneer clothing.) HUMPHREY DRAKE: Pg. 331: “While some were amassing great boundaries of the best land, the settlers could only look on, watch surveying lines run through their fields, and bisect the stations they had built. The lawmakers in offering them preemptions had stipulated they must vacate all property “owned by the State.” Some, such as Humphry DRAKE, did and left the country. Most stayed, and a few were affluent and lucky enough to get a guard right or surveying job, on the local level, and hence get land, while others could buy a preemption from a soldier or land speculator. (This passage was dated approx. Mid-1780's.) JONATHAN DRAKE: Pg. 272: There was no one way of frontier life, and though all at first lived in homes of logs, there is nothing to indicate that families such as the ROBERTSONS, STUMPS, MANSKERS, and other first settlers mentioned by travelers ever knew the floorless cabin with glassless windows and makeshift beds. Nobody beginning with Daniel SMITH early in 1780 ever complained of the bed and board at MANSKERS; all chance accounts of Indian warfare indicate floors, and by 1784 there was at least one house, that of Jonathan DRAKE, good and big enough county court with all the men required to administer justice - no small number - could meet in it. (There is a footnote next to DRAKE’s name: DC, I, 12. DRAKE by that date, April 12, 1784, had moved away.) JOSEPH DRAKE: Pg. 160: “Uriah STONE was going out again, and there is some question if this was the first long hunt for either Isaac BLEDSOE or Kaspar MANSKER. These two with John MONTGOMERY, Joseph DRAKE, and Michael STONER, who had been there in 1767, are said to have had in 1768 a station camp on what is now Station Camp Creek, north of the Cumberland in Middle Tennessee. (Footnote: The station was said to have been west of Station Camp Creek and south of the turnpike.) Pg. 163: “Another party that included Kaspar MANSKER, Issac BLEDSOE, Uriah STONE, Joseph DRAKE, and Henry SCAGGS was not at this time a part of the group at Price’s Meadows. The men kept on west after reaching the Rockcastle, following a trail that was a rough approximation of today’s Kentucky 80, for they left Crab Orchard “to their right or northern side.” (Price’s Meadows was near present-day Mill Springs, KY. This passage is referring to hunters’ camping spots.) WILLIAM DRAKE Pg. 219: “There were also Haydon WELLS, and William and Benjamin DRAKE, all borderers and seasoned woodsmen.” (This is the last sentence in the paragraph about Cumberland bound travelers, abt. 1779 time frame.) DRAKE FAMILY Pg. 251: “Kaspar MANSKER’s Station was in good enough shape to put up travelers by the early spring of 1780; Frederick STUMP was making a permanent settlement on White’s Creek where his family, the EATONS, DRAKES, and a number of others had spent the winter in tents and half-faced camps.” Pg. 337: “However, in the late summer of 1784 Texas begging for annexation was far away. Could old Jacob CASTLEMAN who helped saved the Kentucky settlements, then come to the Cumberland and there lost his life, read here such pretty words as victory and democracy, he would shake his head and go away. He, nor any of his kin, got any free land. They came too late. Neither did John RAINS, Edmund JENNINGS, the DRAKES, nor any of the RENFROES.” DRAKE’S CREEK MEETING HOUSE Pg. 344: Footnote #5 text: “Williams, Travels, “Journal of Reverend Francis Asbury”, 309, Aug. 19, 1800. The only church building finished and in use in all of Middle Tennessee at the time of Asbury’s visit was DRAKES’s Creek Meeting House, south of Mansker’s; at least Asbury, ibid, conducted services there. >From the book, Flowering of the Cumberland”, same author, 1963, same printing company & location: BENJAMIN DRAKE Pg. 227: (this passage refers to branding of cattle stock and the various marks used) “Benjamin DRAKE who came with the STUMPS and the EATONS used a crop and an underkeil in the left ear, an underkeil in the right, and also a brand - BD.” DRAKE’S CREEK Pg. 14: “He had settled on DRAKE’s Creek, and was now building a new home, stone.” (This passage is referring to Daniel SMITH, one of the “most important men in the early history of Tennessee.” Time frame appears to be approx. 1781 for this passage.) DR. DANIEL DRAKE Pg. 74: “Still, no matter how important mother’s role, father was head of the house, not only by law, but often we find him making the more important decisions. It was Daniel DRAKE’s father who decided that young Daniel should get an education better than that to be had in their local community. There is no record Daniel’s mother objected, for source materials of the South do not yield a picture of father as a domineering tyrant that so often comes from New England.” Pg. 175: “No single pattern was held up as perfect, though forced to read the Bible, religion was not urged upon them, or, in the words of Dr. DRAKE, they were taught “morality rather than superstition.” Pg. 179: “ This may or may not have been a blab school. Dr. Daniel DRAKE attended one in Kentucky and regretted the idea was discontinued. (This passage is referring to pioneer education. I think the “blab” must be a printer’s error and it should read “bad” because I cannot find the word “blab” in earlier passages or the index.) Pg. 216: “The old ones writing of childhoods on the borders almost always remembered the family cow, though few with as much fondness as did Dr. Daniel DRAKE on whose boyhood farm the cow was so gently tended she seemed almost a member of the family.” Pg. 72: “Dr. Daniel DRAKE, whose family settled in northern Kentucky in 1788, was in a home short of girls. He churned, scrubbed -- after he had made the hickory brushes and brooms with which the work was done -- carded wool and spun it, spent much time caring for the younger children, helped in the cooking, and “had often to leave the field to help my mother.” (Quoted by permission of the publishers, Abelard-Schuman, Ltd., form Pioneer Life in Kentucky, 1785-1852, by Dr. Daniel DRAKE, ed. From the original manuscript (a series of letters to DRAKE’s children) by E.F. Horine, copyright Abelard-Schuman, Ltd., New York, 1948, 96-109.). Dr. DRAKE did more about the house than most boys, but his work not unusual for any farm home. (This passage is about farm life.) Pg. 411-412: “Dr. Daniel DRAKE on the Kentucky border where life was uncomplicated by Indians grew up in a home stricter than most and with no help for much of the time save the family, but childhood fun and pastimes were a daily part of life. When a little boy he enjoyed, as did country people everywhere, watching the big road, conveyances, horses and people, going slowly enough a child could see the dress, study the faces, and wonder on the strangers. Older, he learned the fun and wonder of the woods while bee hunting, sugar making, or cow hunting; these, like the rest of life, work at the bottom, but never all work; sharing the woods with him was his dog, “Old Lion.” Pg. 134: “This speech of the man from Yorkshire or Lancashire would in time appear crude and rude, especially to Americans. Dr. DRAKE, old and looking back form an age that said “epistle” instead of letter, wrote of the speech of his boyhood in Kentucky of the 1780's; “all was rudely vernacular, and I knew not then the meaning of that word; we spoke a dialect of old English in queer pronunciation and abominable grammar.” (Footnote, take from Drake, Letters, 126.) (This passage is about the languages and speech of the frontier.) Pg. 324: “There was of yet no knowledge of germs, but people were at least getting suspicious, and by 1810 some citizens of Cincinnati were declaring that Ohio River water, filled as it was with human excrement, the refuses of tanneries and meat-packing plants, was unhealthy, though Dr. Daniel DRAKE, leading physician of the town, assured them it was not.” (This passage is about medicine and vaccines.)

Anyone out there doing research on the Rice Curtis or James Curtis families? They were in Davidson Co in 1796. Rice died there, James (Rice's son) ended up in Texas by 1830s. Think he went by way of Alabama with other family members. Jane Caperton

Hi, I am a new subscriber and this is my first listing. I am researching a Canada/Kennedy RICHARDSON. Moved to Nashville area about 1810/11. Bought land with his sons on the Harpeth River. Found a Kennedy RICHARDSON in Capt. Haile's Militia Co. in 1812, but no other information. Family researchers have come up with 3 different names for his wife. Margaret or Nancy or perhaps both if he married twice. Records
