Good evening, I'm new on this list. I am a descendant of the Ewings, McGavocks and Withers of this area. I have information on the Ewings and McGavocks. I have a mystery. My great great grand father William Ewing was killed in the Civil War. I only know that he served both in the Mexican War and Confederate Army, in the latter in command of a company of cavalry at the time of his death. I've always wanted to know where and how he was killed. He was married to Lida Withers at the time. She was born 4/27/1835 in Franklin, TN. and died in 11/21/1865 in Franklin. Her father was John W. Withers. I don't know how she died. My great grand father William Milton Ewing was born Dec. 9th 1862 in Franklin. I don't know who raised him. Can any one help me out with these ponderings. Maybe steer me to a web site or something? I'll be happy to share any info I have with relations to Ewings and McGavocks in the Franklin area. Thank you Billie Ewing [email protected]
