"Avery Trace follows these Hwys Kinston to Cookesville--Us Route 70 Cookesville to Gainesboro-- State Hwy 56 Gainesboro to Carthage --State Route 85 and then State Route 80 Carthage to Gallatin --State Route 25 Gallatin to Nashville--- US Route 31" In looking at he map , it appears taht just a bit west of Kinston you entered Indain country. which reached all the way to fort Blount ( Gainesboro) " " Roane County is where it all began!

Mr. Arney, Your post made fascinating reading. I just want to wish you well in your search for the Arney land. My ancestor, revolutionary war hero, James Armstrong also had a lot of land which I believe to now be under Dale Hollow Lake. I will be looking for the works of Darren Shell to see what else I can learn. I thank you for sharing your information and bringing to my attention this author's name. Thank you and good luck to you! Sincerely, Sherry Morefield Gregg Stan Arney wrote: > Hello Everyone, > > I have been searching for our Tennessee patriarch, Peter Arney. He was born in Tryon (now Lincoln) County, NC in 1772 and arrived in Tennessee around 1799. He purchased 300 acres of land from John Sevier near the Obey River and Wolf River. In searching for DTP (Definitive Tangible Proof) of Peter Arney's existence, I have been trying to locate the land he purchased. > I have a copy of the land purchase but it does not get very specific. Well, it is very specific as it outlines the lands, using "poles" and trees as points of reference. This makes it very hard to pinpoint it's location. The creating of Dale Hollow Lake made this task much more difficult because Peter' original land purchase could be completely submersed in Dale Hollow Lake. > Knowing that Peter Arney died > in what was Overton County, TN at that time, gave me a general start. Knowing that the land was included in different counties at different times. > This narrowed the search to Clay, Pickett, and Overton Counties in Tennessee. Knowing some points of interest over the years helped as well. His land purchase was near the Obey River and that some of his descendants lived near the mouth of the Wolf River also narrowed it down. When Dale Hollow Lake was created, the Corps of Engineers purchased lots of land in Tennessee, not all of this land was used for Dale Hollow Lake. Also, I received an email from someone a few years ago, that stated the person had found existing land of Peter Arney's. The person said that the land was not accessible by road, but by boat only. The person did not state which lake, because he/she could not remember, but if it was Dale Hollow Lake you would think they would have clearly stated > that. > > I believe I have, by deductive reasoning, etc. found the land (of Peter Arney's) that still exists today. A special thanks to Darren Shell, who has written several books on Dale Hollow Lake, who helped me to narrow down the possibilities. I believe that the piece of Peter Arney's land that still exists is County Line Island, which sits interestingly enough smack dab between Clay and Pickett Counties in Tennessee. > > This fits perfectly for several reasons. We know that Peter Arney died in Overton County, TN in 1845. We know he was in Smith County in 1799, he was in Jackson County in 1802, and he died in Overton County. His children and descendants remained in Clay and Pickett Counties (plus other counties in Tennessee as well) and many still do today. > Over the years, as counties were created, his land was in different counties but did > not move obviously. > > I do not live in Tennessee, so it's impossible for me to travel to County Line Island, at this time. > > Please, tell me what you think about this issue?
