migrated to Chattanooga. I have very little info on my great Uncle Cal

desiring to find out more. Anyone have any info on Calvin, please let me

know..

Thanks so much, Elizabeth

Morning Hallie (and y'all <smile>)...

According to a Goodspeed biography (for Washington Co) - there was a Holston

Seminary at New Market, Tenn.

Also, this college holds the archives of the Methodist Church - Holston

Conference. They might be able to help.......

Subject: [KnoxCoTN] Extracts from the Autobiography of John J. Craig, dated 1911.

Today, I've uploaded a new page that has a few interesting tidbits,

despite the flowery language that makes it kind of hard to read. Those

who have West Knox County heritage will be particularly interested.

Subject: [KnoxCoTN] Memorial to Francis Alexander Ramsey

The Knox County TNGenWeb site is pleased to announce that Rev. Robert

Henderson's memorial tribute to Francis Alexander Ramsey, one of Knox

County's pioneer settlers and the progenitor of one of the county's most

prestigious families, is now on-line at

http://www.knoxcotn.org/biographies/faramseymem.html

The Ramseys lived in East Knox County near the head of the Tennessee

River (junction of the French Broad and Holston). The memorial has some

very interesting historical information about the area and some of its

early residents.
