Miss Jeannie Maryland This established Time Line is an Exact match to the Families of the Reverend Tidence Lane who lead some of the First Families into Washington County NC about 1780 era, which is now area of Sullivan, Greene and Hawkins County Tn. Tidenece Lane was a Primitive Baptist Minister whose families came out of Maryland to the Yadkin Valley Settlements of North Carolina following the same travel Patterns is some of the De Bohun ( Boone Families) Suggest you just run the Surname Johnson thru Rootsweb then after you get 200 pages of information eliminate the surname Johnson in the section below ,and then put the basic information thru Rootsweb on a new Search no name but born Maryland 1760 plus or minus 20 years died in Hawkins County Tn. See who came with you on the same travel Pattern/ Yes this can be done also by changing places of Death to Bedford County and keeping Maryland in the engine. It will give you all the names of persons who have been researched that didn't make it on to the Counties of Hawkins County Tn which was formed from Lands of Washington Co NC, Washington Co. Va and from the Lost State of Franklin This can be used also to give you the names of those that caem from Maryland Born 1760 plus or minus 20 years that died in Wilkes County NC. again establishing a knon travel pattern. This can also be done by elminatating the Name Johnson and placing just in the place where it says DIED place the name of the Creek your family owned lands on. Tony Also if you KNOW WHAT CREEK your Families Lived on I can help you establish a TIME LINE FOR where these first Deeds on this Creek where Registered to and who was there first. It take a WHILE for me to do this, but I Will be willing to help as My Families are well tied to Bedford County.

What a fantastic reply you gave. Thank you for the time and mental energy to give us this message. I have a family in that part of the country you refer to - and yes they did travel - and with family, although I cannot prove it yet, but registering and buying land on the same day & coming back up out of SC - for sure, and witnessing each others purchase, yet!. I wish I could type faster and more but I am down to one hand. I would like to correspond with others who were in that area, or arrived there in TSRO/Sullivan Co/Greene Co/ Washington Dist NC and SC/ Stateof Franklin/Wilkes Co NC/etc... Mine came about 1769. He last signed a petition in Baltimore MD in 1768. Again, it is a whole new ball game in that area! I know a lot of people lose it there, but after the war with the Feds paying in script on land others were already on, they left and went down to north of the Pacolet in SC and then abt 1800 they all came flooding back in mass. Really interesting. Jeanne
