While the discussion seems to be on Nance, let me add one of mine. They apparently moved from Grainger to Roane Co. ca 1843 and were in Livingston Co., Ky. in 1850. After the 1850 census in Ky, they moved back to Roane Co., Tn. Does anyone have a possibility for this James Nance? 2) Emaline Hodge b. ca 1819 Grainger Co., Tn md. 6/26/1849 Roane Co., Tn. Sur, Henderson Bowling, Wm. C. Julian J.P. sp. James Nance [Dates of marriage and children's ages don't match. Were either previously married?] Nancy E.J.
