I've sent it twice. Don't know why some people didn't get it. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 5 Dec 1999 16:43:01 EST From: STJASTCL@aol.com Subject: Knox County Families I'm researching the following families from the Seven Islands Community in South Knox County. They are as follows: Widener (Widner), Creswell, Johnson, Hicks, Randles, Hodge, Hodges, Bales, Huffaker, Henry and Hines. Some of these families also moved into the Boyds Creek area of Sevier County. Anyone out there researching this area of Knox County? Thank You, Steve Widener ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 5 Dec 1999 17:19:55 -0500 From: Elizabeth A England-Hicks <eaengland@juno.com> Subject: Brown and Collateral Families Hi..... I have just joined the knoxcotn site and am not really sure how this works, but here goes. I am researching the family of my g-g-grandfather, John Brown, b. 1799-1800 in NC. Don't know what county. He was married to Sarah Wood b. 1805 in Knox County, TN. They were married Feb. 29, 1825, also in Knox Co. We have reached a dead end with John. Some of the related families are: J.C. Medlock, John Tunnell, Wm. Ogg, James Hunter, James Renfro, James McCloud, Eli Cox, J.H. Lones, Samuel Davis, Robert Wallace, Wm. H. Conner, Armstead Gilpin, Stephen Bishop, Wm. Copeland, R.M. Hall, P.F. Gentry, Wm. Lewis, Madearis ( which is a Portuguese name ). Some of these people are related by marriage and some of them, I don't know the relation, if any, to the Browns. All but Madearis were names on an estate sale of John Brown's property in 1860. Anyone out there know anything? Also related to Frakers, Cates, Atchleys. I live in Jefferson County, right across the Sevier Co. line. Thanks........ Ann England-Hicks ___________________________________________________________________ Why pay more to get Web access?

McNamara" <knox@tngenweb.org> Subject: Re: Roll Call Hi, Sherron! Thanks for introducing us to your research. The Lonas family gives us one more for West Knox County. But, Hammer and Randle are good East Knox names <g>. Have you contacted the McClung Collection to see what information they have in their files? I know they've got Lonas info -- not sure what's there for the rest of your list.
