Remember most of their lives were not comfortable. My own Father traveled between Greene Co. and Hawkins Co. in the 1920's at first before the age of 3 by horse with his grandfather. Later he was able to ride a horse by himself with his grandfather who would come to get him. The last time he was about 9 and he wanted to go, his dad was riding the extra horse, and if he wanted to go he had to ride the mule. He said he never rode after that,. the mule legs all work independently and there is no rhythm to get into. He felt like he had been in an egg beater for four hours. He felt his bruises for days. Anyone researching the Woolsey family in Greene Co. knows that there were members who went back and forth to NY after living in Greene Co. There was Henry Thompson that went to AR abt. 1850, when his wife died he came back to Greene Co. with his children and stayed. There are numerous wives that some how brought their children back, after traveling west and loosing their husbands. I have been to East Tennessee a few times in my > lifetime, as my father, Jack Ashley, son of George W. Ashley was born and raised > there. So I feel I do have some understanding of the area roads and the > weather there. > --part1_151.21d794c3.2c4a2850_boundary--
