As you know, we do not have many historical attractions in Burns outside of Old Spencer Mill. I believe that I heard from someone on this list that Mr. Lankford who is a neighbor of mine is planning a museum there. Sorry to hear about the vandalism & hope they are caught. Anything you can share with the list on him & his story is appreciated. If anyone has a pic of the house or him, I'd love to have a copy. Where exactly is the cabin? I'd be happy to take a photo with permission from the landowner for anyone. B.

Austin Date: Monday, 10 May 2004, at 2:07 p.m. Hi there Jim, William Austin(b 20 June 1790), is my 3gguncle. When I was researching this line about five years ago, I was fortunate enough to correspond with a gentleman, Wm Wyatt Austin jr. from Hubert, North Carolina. William G. Austin"three" was his grandfather if I understood him correctly. Following is a quote from the information I received from Mr. Austin of N.Carolina: "Grandpa Billy and Dicy were the first owners and occupants of "Lonesome", the old log cabin Austin homeplace at Burns, Dickson County Tennessee. There is some question about who actually built Lonesome in 1819 - 1820, but we know it was the home of William and Dicy Austin and their eleven kids from 1820 to 1876, the year of Grandpa Billy's death." See the Lonesome story by Ruth Elizabeth Austin Kimbro Austin According to Wm Wyatt Austin text, Lonesome homeplace was still standing in 1997. and the researcher Wm W. Austin claims to be the third owner of the homeplace. William Austin (m Dicy Horner) served two different tours of duty in the War of 1812, first as Private under Captain Hamilton, and later under Capt Hudson, in First Tn. Regiment USA under Gen'l Andrew Jackson in the War of 1812 at the Battle of New Orleans in 1815. Wm was later awarded bounty lands for this service. (Bounty Warrants 2535-80-50 & 52697-80-55) Ref, Sally Austin Day in AUSTINS OF AMERICA p 182 & National Archives Microfilm 313 Reel 3 Upon his return to his parents' home in Dickson Co Tenn, William married his boyhood gal, Dicy Horner in 1819 and their first home was the old log house (later it was named Lonesome) on Beaver Dam in Dickson County where they lived and reaised their large family until William's death in 1876. William Three's occupation was farmer and land owner. During this lifetime he acquired about 1000 acres adjoining Lonesome. Dicy was an expert weaver and craftsperson." Jim, I would appreciate it if you would keep me in the loop on whatever directions you might get concerning the old Cabin, and whether it is still standing. Willim G Austin (1790) was the brother of my 3g grandfather, Samuel Demetrius Austin (b.18 Jan 1793) Would be interested to hear your Austin connections.

    3. Conard, I was talking to Jim Reynolds up at the funeral home yesterday and he told me that your Saphronia Reynolds, that married Whitney Harper Seals, was the daughter of Samuel H. Reynolds and she was called "Aunt Fronie". I was just listening to the obituary list on WDKN Dickson radio and they gave an obit for a lady , I didn't catch the name, (of course the phone had to ring), I believe they gave her age as 91 and daughter of Lawerence and Myrtle Mae Christy Seals. The Lawerence Seals caught my ear and when I find out more will let you know, unless you already know. Faye Keele

    3. Hi Suzanne: I know Thomas and Sarah lived in what now is Cheatham County and I think one of his daughters was named Margaret or Martha. I know Thomas came from Norfolk, Virginia and Sarah came to Tennessee as a baby. Thomas is supposed to be buried in the Cheatham County Cemetary but we could not find it when we were up there. Sarah is supposed to be buried at Cave Springs in Pegram, Tennessee but could not find that one either. So, it sounds like the people you mentioned could very well be the same family but to put them in place is another story. Thanks a lot.
