Renee, Congratulations on finding your family. I know what you are feeling. Thomas E. Partlow's WILSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE, CHANCERY COURT RECORDS 1842-1892, has some entries which will be of interest to you. (Note: The name Prichard is shown as Pritchett in all these entries.) 1. Petition of George and Harriet Pritchett of Wilson County; and Elizabeth C. Weaks and husband Robert of Sumner County, against Benjamin, Elizabeth, William Jasper, Duncan Newton, Diadamer, Nancy, Ruthy, Mary, Jane, and George Pritchett, minor children of John Pritchett of Illinois; and against Nancy, Elizabeth, John, Mary, Sarah Jane, Benjamin, Parthenia, and Edward Corder, minor heirs of Margaret Corder, formerly Margaret Pritchett, of Illinois; and against Jane Weaks and Isaac Weaks of Illinois; and John, Catherine, Elizabeth, William Thomas, and James R. Pritchett, minor heirs of William Pritchett of Dekalb County. In 1831, George Pritchett departed this life. His widow, Elizabeth Pritchett continued to live on is land in the 12th District until 11 May of this year [1856] when she died. Said plaintiffs are seeking to purchase the land. They have purchased the interested of Benjamin Pritchett of Wilson County; Mary Hudson and husband William C.,; Sarah and Elizabeth Hickey; J. A. Hudson and wife Nancy. 2 June 1856 (Chancery Court 1855-1861, Pp 339-345) 2. Bill of complaint of William P. Barry, executor of Benjamin Pritchett against Jane F. Pritchett, Jasper C. Pritchett, Nancy Pritchett, and Julia Pritchett of Dekalb County; John Pritchett and George W. Pritchett of Smith County; and Daniel Pritchett and James Pritchett of Wilson County. Benjamin Pritchett died in September 1851, leaving his widow, Jane F. Pritchett and the above named children. Petition to sell land. 11 January 1862. (Chancery Court 1865-1867, Pp. 465-469) 3. Bill of complaint of I. W. Dill, administrator of Moses A. Byers; Polly Ann Mosier, B. H. Mosier, John Mosier, Henry Mosier, Matilds Mosier, and John O'Neal of Wilson County; and A. W. Mosier of Texas against Lucretia Mosier, Starnes Mosier, Alexander M. Mosier, Mary E. Mosier, William O'Neal, Mattie O'Neal, and Berry O'Neal, a minor. Berry Mosier died intestate in 1874. Complainant Polly Ann Mosier is the widow; the other complainants are his only children; defendants are grandchildren, being the only children of daughter Christiana who was the wife of complainant John O'Neal. 5 April 1875 (Chancery Book 1874-1875, Pp 43-44) I hope these entries are helpful. Unfortunately, the books cited above are in the hands of a private citizen, and are not available for photocopying nor are they on microfilm. Mr. Partlow's abstracts are the only records available. However, any of the entries involving land transactions would have deeds, etc., and those would be available for copy. There are a number of other entries for Robertson and White; however, since you did not have any specifics on that family, it would be difficult to sort out which might be of help. If you have other Robertson names, I will be happy to check for new entries. Good luck!!
