    3. Thought everyone might be interested in these online books/links. First, here's the link I used to search for these books. If none of the ones below help you out, you can try your luck - I searched on Washington, Wise, Scott, Sullivan counties, and Tennessee and Virginia. Before you waste your time, nothing turned up on the search for these county names, but I did get a few hits just from searches on Tennessee and Virginia, and a couple of those links led me to links to books on the Civil War and the Cherokee. There were more than these available, but I tried to pick items that would be of interest to most everyone. I also tried searching on my surnames and got a couple of hits but nothing useful. You may be luckier. I hope this helps someone in their search. Here's the link to the search page I used: http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/search.html HERE ARE THE BOOKS I FOUND: The Conquest of the Old Southwest: The Romantic Story of the Early Pioneers into Virginia, The Carolinas, Tennessee, and Kentucky 1740-1790, by Archibald Henderson ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext00/cnqsw10.txt The Patriots and Guerillas of East Tennessee and Kentucky The Sufferings of the Patriots The Experience of the Author as an Officer in the Union Army Including Sketches of NOTED GUERILLAS AND DISTINGUISHED PATRIOTS By Major J.
