Lanita, might try searching your names in several "Miscellany...." by Jonathan Smith under Miscellaneous section, there is an index for each "Miscellany...", but sometimes the page numbers in the index do not correspond with information at: http://www.tngenweb.org/records/henderson/ There is a lot of early information about individuals in these "Miscellany...." Have you checked slave owner records of 1850 and 1860 on website of Henderson Co. TN? Also check early land grants of Tennessee. There is a book "Tennessee Land Grants" by Barbara, Byron, and Samuel Sistler, Nashville, TN, that lists name, grant #, number of acres, etc. I don't have easy access to this book and I only have title of Volume I as that is where my ancestor's names were listed and it was only volume I checked, it is for surnames A-K, so there must be other volumes. Do google search or try search catalog on website of Tennessee State Library and Archives, Nashville, TN. Some genealogical libraries have this book. I found the book at the Huntington Beach, Orange County, California library. If Tennessee State Library has this book, then you might be able to have a volunteer for Davidson Co. TN do look up in it for you, www.raogk.org. Could be that Sistler is still selling these volumes, also. If you find grant #, then you can order copy of land grant from Tennessee State Library and Archives or order microfilm for that grant from Mormon Family History Library, Salt Lake City, UT. your message: James SMITH [b. bef 1789 in VA] who d. bef. 1860 in probably Henderson Co., TN. He mar. Docia UNKNOWN [possibly Theodocia}. She was b. 1788-bef 1870 in Henderson Co. All I have is a son's name: Wright G.SMITH SR [1802- d. betw.1880-1900]. He mar. Margaret UNKNOWN abt 1832. Looking for more info on James and Docia as well as Wright and Margaret. I already have all the census, looking for additional info found in probate, legal docmts, burial sites, etc.. Any help is appreciated! Lanita
