OK. Here's mine.
One of my ancestors was a Cherokee woman named Mary E. Madole, McDowl,
McDowell (spellings differ), born ca. 1768 in SC, according
to compensation claims filed by her grandchildren. Her mother was Cherokee
but her father was probably an Indian trader named McDowell. Does anyone
have any information about such a person at that time in Cherokee country?
She married a man named John Ward, but not, apparently, the one
who was the son of Bryan Ward. They apparently lived among the Cherokees,
spoke the language, etc., and ended up in TN and KY.
Anybody know anything about him? I'd appreciate any tips as to how even to
research this.
Thanks.

Subject: [TNSMITH-L] Brush or Brushy Creek and Hickmans Creek
Can any one tell me anything about these two Creeks...how far apart they are...first settlements etc...which main river they run into or out of...any history of the area...
I'm looking for William Coats and I believe there might be two William Coats' in that area...the William Coats I'm looking for was married to Nancy Baker...there is land for a William Coats on both creeks...the William on Brushy Creek got there about 1806...
Any history of the area would be great...did any settlers from SC come to that area...I have an early MO History that says William Coats went from SC to Smith County TN...
Thanking you all in advance...goin' find those documents this year!!!!

Can anyone tell me where the following are in Smith co.?
These is from plat surveys circa 1820s-1840s.
District 23
Love's Valley
Wolfe Creek
I believe the latter to be different from the Wolfe Creek area now in Dekalb Co. In fact, I suspect all of this is located north of the Cumberland and East of the Caney Fork somewhere near [here's where I need lots of help] Jackson Co.

District 23 is in the southeastern corner of Smith county in 1833. I have a map; it does not show anything other than districts.

Hi Nancy and all Y'all Smith County Cuzzins . . .
I'm desperately looking for connections to my
Brassell Ancestors. My gggrandfather
was Egbert H. Brassell and the Dixon Springs, Smith County, TN enumeration
on 1st Day of June 1860 shows:
Egbert Brassell 44 M W Carpenter No. Carolina
Mary P. Brassell 31 F W Housewife Tennessee
Tennessee Brassell 12 F W Tennessee
William Brassell 16 M W Farmer Tennessee
Reuben J. Brassell 15 M W Tennessee
Zachariah T. Brassell 9 M W Kentucky
Luiza Brassell 7 F W Kentucky
Joseph Brassell 7 M W Kentucky
George A. Brassell 5 M W Kentucky
Amanda Brassell 3 F W Tennessee
The family later moved to Putnam County and the last son, Samuel Brassell, was obviously born there.
The above listed Reuben J. Brassell (s/b James Reuben Brassell) was my great
grandfather and he married Harriette Zeniera Dowell (father Reuben
Hickman Dowell/mother Attaline Cooke, daughter of Richard Fielding
Cooke) of Jackson/White County.
I have much info on the Cooke line but am just beginning to dig up Dowell
info and haven't been able to connect Egbert H. Brassell beyond the Smith
County census.
The family has a really sad history which I know many folks in that area
are aware of and perhaps someone can help me track down records.
Thanks so much for any and all info you might have.
Patty Larson
I'm researching Coats and variant
spellings, Cotes, Coates, Coate and Baker
.... just recently got info on my Baker line...Nancy Baker c.
1775 m Rev William Coats, her parents are Sylvester Baker and his first wife
Experience....really like that name Experience...have no idea of her maiden
name...would like to know more, they all moved from Smith Co. TN to Callaway
Co. MO 1817...The Baker are said to come from NC the Coats from SC .... William
Coats is either the William Coats on Hickmans Creek or the William Coats
on Brushy Creek...I think it might be Brushy Creek but still trying to straigten
it all out...
Charlotte
There are a lot of Williams in SC around the Bush River area...did your William
come from there?

This is a one name surname study and includes all my research and scanned copies of original documents ie land records and wills ...some are transcribed copies ...
Although a one name study and archive...the Coats purchased land from others and others purchased articles at estate sales etc...
If it pertains to the Coats Family it is or will find it's way in the Archive...<g>...

My George Crowder moved with his family from Wake Co. NC ca 1806 to Smith
Co., where he died 1811. Wife was Lucy Garrett Crowder, children were James
Bartholomew, John J., Green (my gggf), Ransom Duke, Adelia, Mary, Martha.
Two of the girls married men named Wade (brothers, cousins?), and the other
married a McDonald. Mary and Martha were dead by 1842. The rest of the family
were in Yalobusha Co., MS, by the early 1830s. Question: What would have
prompted the move to Smith Co? Was land being given away? Will appreciate
any help. Sheila Mahaffy

I'm also interested in reasons for migrations. My Josiah BAIRD family, along with his brother-in-law James UPTON's family, came about 1803 to Smith Co., TN from Rowan Co., NC. Other Rowan Co. families that came and seem to be related are ELS(T)ON, (BEL)CONGER, but I'm not sure if they came at the same time or not.
I am researching these Smith Co. names:
1) BAIRD/BEARD, PAR(R)IS, PENDLETON
and
2) BRASWELL, STEVENS.
These lines intermarried or had tangled dealings with:
1) HUGHES, GWALTNEY, AGEE, PROWELL, WARD, SMARTT, DOWELL, ALLISON/ELLISON,
GASS, BASS, PIGG, FRANCIS, ELS(T)ON, CONGER, McCORMACK, CAMPBELL,
COCKERHAM/COCHRAN/COCKRUM, BLACKBURN, BRASWELL to name a few.

I for one like having the list put out so that I know who everyone is. If
you surf the web just about any sight sends you a cookie and they figure
out who you are and send you their adv/junk mail/spam. As far as I know there
is not a whole lot that can be done about it. I believe you can report spam
mail on the rootsweb webpage if you feel that the spam came from someone

Hi Charles,
I vote to keep letting us periodically know our fellow researchers and how
many are subscribed. I've been on the Internet for almost 3 years - long
before we had a Smith Co. list; have been getting unsolicited mail the whole
time, and Smith plus one other list are the only ones who've posted names.
From the looks of my spam mail, it's never anything having to do with genealogy
- so I don't know how they get my address, but I'd never blame this list.
I just immediately hit the reply - delete the return address to the point
of the "@" and type in abuse to send off a complaint, then delete the message
& go about my business. I can't control the junk mail I receive from
the US P.O. either <G>

Hi Folks - Tom Willis in Colorado.
When I began my wife's line some months ago I started in Sumner Co. because
when she told me her grandmother's name was Cage - I flashed to Cage's bend
I drove by everyday on my commute from Portland to Hendersonville when we
use to live there back in the 80's. (1980's :-)) - anyway, I've just began
transcribing a lawsuit from the Sumner CO archives and it Places Poleman
CAGE in Smith Co.
Is anyone on the list doing any CAGE -
GRIGG(S) research - In particular Henry Cage b. 1855 and Mary
Grigg(s) b. 1849 ???
Thanx for the list and the help.

Hello to the List.....
Had a question from someone about "roll call".....we forget to explain what's
going on sometimes for the new folks....
Basically, Roll Call is just telling who you are (and where you are from,
if you want to add that in).....and a list of surnames you are researching
in this county, so the rest of us can contact you if we see a
connection....
And some people have suggested that you add in where your ancestors went
to from Tennessee, as many times a connection can be made there...
Don't forget......the past issues of the TNSMITH mailing list digest archives
can be found online at:
http://members.aol.com/genny1/smithidx.html
And thanks ever so much to Charles Gregory, ListOwner
(email:

for starting the TNSMITH list....we all do appreciate the work, Charles!!

I believe I remember seeing that the Tennessee Archives has microfilm of
the Brushy Creeky Primitive Baptist Church. It may be at LDS but I don't
know for sure.
If you can find the names of the Churches, you can write to the Southern
headquarters of the Baptist Church Association where they keep these records,
but I don't know exact address, name, etc. Can someone help me out here?
The following webpage has information and links to some specific repository

Wasn't going to post this family as they were on in Smith Co, Tn for about
12-13 years while I have many on my mother's lines there for over a century.
This is my father's direct line. Any help really appreciated. Also, really
at a brickwall on the McIntire line - but not sure where they came from before
their arrival in Missouri. May have followed the same trail. Also, searching
for any JOB (E) families in this area of TN before 1825.

For CATES, you should turn your eyes to Bedford Co. and Warren Co. areas. I haven't traced these lines; however, I know that the CATES intermarried with my HASTINGS/HOLLOWAY lines, which in turn intermarried with my POLLOCK line. These people (CATES, HASTINGS, HOLLOWAY) came from Orange Co., NC before 1816. Below is my tie-in to the HASTINGS line:
Samuel Pollock was born between 1791 and 1800 at now TN. He married Susanna Hastings, daughter of Joseph Hastings (RS) and Susannah Holloway, before 1816 at TN. He died circa 1834 at Benton Co., AL.
Susanna Hastings was born circa 1794 at Orange Co., NC. She married Samuel Pollock, son of John Pollock and Alcy ?, before 1816 at TN. She died after 1850.
Joseph Hastings (RS) was born on 25 Nov 1757 at Orange Co., NC. He married Susannah Holloway, daughter of Robert Holloway and Martha Ballard, in 1778 at NC. He died on 30 Jan 1816 at Bedford Co., TN, at age 58.
Susannah Holloway was born in 1755 at Orange Co., NC. She married Joseph Hastings (RS), son of Henry Hastings (RS) and Elizabeth ?, in 1778 at NC. She died on 27 Aug 1842 at Bedford Co., TN.
