    1. [TNWAYNE] Wayne County, TN family Migration Patterns

    3. To the List and list managers, I noticed members of another county website, as a group, are organizing chronological information on their family's migration patterns and motivations. I was impressed and thought maybe we could do the same for the Wayne County list members. If all agree and would find this information helpful perhaps we can help build on this idea while making new connections to family members. Barbara Warthen Wallace W. S. WARTHEN/WORTHEN: TN to TX in 1855 Between 1851 and 1855 William S. Warthen/Worthen, in his early twenties, with Sarah Ann (--- ) and baby left his father's home and by 1855 was paying taxes in Collin County, TX. He may have stopped in AR first and for whatever reason moved on to Texas. I don't for a moment believe that the three of them made that trip without the benefit of other family members or friends from Wayne County. I don't know what compelled him to go to Texas but it was not to claim land as he did not purchase land there for several years. I would guess they arrived via river boat to Jefferson, Texas but don't have a clue. His father was John Worthen and step mother was Nancy Hardin of Wayne County. Wm. S. Warthen and his third wife, Mrs. Letty Wilkins left Collin County in late 1880s for Grayson County, TX and around 1891 migrated into the Indian Territory settling near Mannsville. I would like to know if members of your family move to Arkansas or Texas around those dates and do you know why? Did any of them end up in or near Collin County, Texas? As my time permits during the next couple of weeks, I would be willing to check for your family in the 1860 Collin County, TX Federal Census providing you know the first and last name of head of household and believe they were in the county.
