Hi Cathy, I just looked and I have some of your husband family in my data base. It looks like my line on the Scotts and Halls to Martin and Nancy Webb Hall. My line from the Scotts is: Nancy Emma Scott Freels to Russell Scott to Samuel Scott and then Thomas Scott (Revolutionary War Soldier). I believe I got some of the information from Margaret Scott before she died. I have as far as Emma Hall. Don't worry about reading the information wrong. I read stuff wrong all the time! Maybe when I get the penion application, it will give me some more clues. Now........do you have any proof of the parents of John Webb that was married to Nancy Hall (daughter of Martin & Choe Hendrix Hall)? I feel like his father was Cutherath Webb but I have not found any proof. John 's parents have really been a brick wall for me. Thanks for all your help.

Linda, I have a page from an old Morgan County Hist. Soc. newsletter showing the lineage of John Webb, Sr. It shows John Webb, Sr. being born 1785 in N. C. Further on it says that it is believed that he and the Halls both came from Wilkes County, N. C. at about the same time. The article reads "From 1805 when the Indian title to the Cumberland Plateau was extinguished, until 1817 the territory that was to become Morgan County was a part of Roane County. The first report of a Webb being in the area was of his marriage to Nancy Hall in 1909 in Roane County,later Morgan Co. Several years ago an old Roane County tax book was discovered that contained the tax records for the yeas of 1814, 1815, 1816, and 1817. John Webb is listed for all four years and is the only Webb shown. The 1820 census was only a head count. The 1830 census indicates that there are now 3 other Webb families living in the county in addition of John Webb, Sr. They are Culbirth, between 20 and 30 years old, Mitchell between 40 and 50 yrs. old and Francis, between 60 and 70 years old. John was now 45 yrs. old. The article goes on to say that John Mitchell and Cutbirth are all of an age group where they would be brothers. Francis appears to be too old for a brother. John's age and place of birth comes from his will, Morgan County Deed Book M. Pages 263-64, dated july 30, 1841. Several children are listed, but the name Cutbirth is not one of them. It's also interesting that Nancy Hall's family goes back to Martin Hall whose mother was a "Webb". I haven't been able to find anything else on Cutbirth either. This article was one of the first items which helped me with my line which is also from John and Nancy. My line comes through Willis Webb and Margaret Stewart. When your line goes back that far, you're related to almost half of Morgan County in one way or another. If you find anything else on John's parentage, I would love to know about it and I will keep you in mind, too. I've run into that same brick wall.

PROUD WIFE OF TENNESSEE ARMY NATIONAL GUARD SGT. CURRENTLY ON TRAIN UP FOR DEPLOYMENT FOR KOSOVO. Hi Nancy, I am at the same brick wall with my husbands two Webb lines. His first Webb line is the same as yours. The general "idea" is that Francis is the father of John and that Mitchell was his brother.However, there is no proof of this or at least I haven't seen it. However, Francis is not a name that is passed down thru the generations.Willis Webb is the only one that I have come across that has a son named Frances.The names that appear the most, as far as sons go, are John, Samuel and William.In the second generation of John Sr. the names Robert and James also appear alot. The second Webb set is that of Million Webb that married Samuel Hall Sr.She is the daughter of Merry Wren and Elizabeth Martin Webb,by general "ideal".Her parentage is also not proven.This Merry Wren Webb was born 1697 in VA and died Feb 1779 in Pittsylvania Co.,VA.(it's now Henry Co.).If this is the father of Million, her mother's side is a nightmare and one if you dig into it you will find a lot of information out there on her but no proof. You will also find that her partentage always or almost always starts an arguement between those researchers "in the know". She is the daughter of one of two men. Melatiah Martin or Martin Martin.They both had a daughter named Elizabeth that were born at or near the same time.Both these Elizabeths married Webbs. So see you aren't the only one with Webb brick walls.LOL I am sorry to say that I don't work on his biological father's side of the family to much.(that's this side)It has way too many brick walls,Walker,Voiles,Webb,Wright,Underwood,ect. But if I can help you in any way, maybe between those of us with brick walls, we can figure it out. Cathy Martin
