    1. Re: [WEAVER-L] CLICK & WEAVER Texas 1866
    2. >>>> Did these Click's and Weaver come the the Sullivan County and Cocke County, Tennessee Click's and Weaver's? A branch of these families were in Monroe County, TN before 1860.>>> The come from Frederick Weaver, b. 1759/60 VA and Lewis Click ( Johann Gluck>>was spelled Lewis Click by 1780). David Adam WEAVER was born Oct. 7, 1809, in Tennessee. He married. Emily (Emely?) Ann VICKERS in Troup Co., GA Jan. 15, 1837. D. A. WEAVER was in Troup Co., GA because of service in the Creek Indian War. The couple were in Sevier Co., ARK. ca 1860 and that is where the first documented contact I know of occured between the WEAVER's and CLICK's. That was a marriage between Marcellus C. CLICK and Nancy Jane Weaver ca 1860 in Savier Co..Ark. Also at the BLM/GLO web site for Ark. the record for Nancy Jane Weaver's brother, John, also contained the name of Marcellus CLICK in the area marked NOTES. I don't know the reason for that name being there.. I've never seen another record on that site with a name in the NOTES box. However, the brother, John "Bud" Vickers Weaver, died in a POW camp in Chicago, IL. after capture by Union Army. Maybe M. C. CLICK inherited it from his brother-in- law. For the purpose of answering you question, John V. WEAVERs place of birth and not his death is of interest. He was born March 16, 1838 in Tenn. If we look at that time-line it shows David and Emily in GA 1837, Tenn 1838. However, another of their children was born in AL ca 1844. I believe they checked in for the 1850 census in Coosa Co., AL. Another child was born in AL ca 1851 but the next was born in Bossier Parish, LA in 1854. We think Marcellus C. Click was born in Dec. 1832 in Ala.. He shows up in 1850 US Census, Lafayette County, Arkansas, Moss Township, p. 173: Matthias B. Click 59 M Farmer Va Nancy " 55 F Tenn John M. " 27 M Farmer Ala James " 23 M " Ala Rufus " 19 M " Ala Marcellus " 17 M " Tenn If this census is accurate re: the children's birthplaces, then Matthias B. Click would have left Tuscaloosa County, Alabama ca. 1831 and moved somewhere in Tennessee. He would have left Tennessee for Arkansas after ca.1833. Matthias B. Click's wife, Nancy Moss Click was from Wilson County, Tennessee. In Deed Book K, 1793 - 1829., Division of the lands of Thomas Moss deceased. Heirs: Nancy Click, Minerva Britton, Silas Chapman, James Moss, Elizabeth Moss, Zelpha Moss' heirs, Sally Johnson, Thomas Moss, and Lucy's heirs. December 1824 (pp. 419-420) As Matthias B. Click and Nancy Moss were also married in Wilson County, Tennessee, it appears that the Moss family roots are in that area. This would be the Middle Tennessee area around the present Lebanon, Tennessee near the Cumberland River, about 30 miles east of Nashville. Then there is Wilson WEAVER. He may be D. A. WEAVER's uncle but he is just barely old enough to be his father. Wilson WEAVER married Mary Jane MUNN, 11 Feb. 1813 in eastern TN or NC. Wilson WEAVER enlisted 9-1-1814, discharged 2-1-1815 at Elizabeth, Carter Co., TN. He served as a Private in Jessie Cole's Company, Tennessee Militia,. 1820 CENSUS Lawrence Co., TN 1830 CENSUS CarrolL Co., TN 1840 CENSUS DeSoto Co., MS 1850 CENSUS Hempstead Co., AR Mary Jane MUNN died ca 1866-67 Nevada Co., AR Wilson WEAVER died 02-Aug. 1881 Nevada Co., AR. By that time the WEAVER - CLICK relationship was well established and they were making a name in TEXAS. I guess I didn't answer your question very well. However, if this provides you with any clue please let me know. WEAVERTRK
