Special appreciation goes to the compilersfor the difficult task of preparing the yearly Surname Index: Jessie Webb, LynnCravens, Joan Piercy, Dorothy Greiner, Lola Davenport and Gerry Holstun. The listwould not be complete without thanking my husband, Skeet Spence, for his patience,collaboration and sharing an interest in "Ansearchin'" News - he has been "my silenteditor."

"A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE STEPHENS FAMILY" - Submitted by Mrs. Jenece Warner,904 Eighth Avenue, Cleveland, MS 38732

Marcus D. Lafayette STEPHENS, born 9 Nov 1829, wrote this history for his family 14Feb 1911 and died a few weeks later in Water Valley, MS on 15 Apr 1911. He relatedthe story of the early Stephens, his grandparents' families and gave a detailedaccount of his experiences during the Civil War along with anecdotes of everydaylife in a rural community.

"Our immediate family are the remote off-spring of Samuel Stephens, an Englishman,who came over to America with Lord Bacon, as his private secretary, who located atJamestown in about 1650." (Further information is in records of Bacon's Rebellion.)A short time after Bacon's death, Samuel Stephens died and his English wife marriedagain. He left a family of sons and daughters in the care of Richard Stephens, hiseldest son. The known children were Richard, Thomas, Samuel, Dennis and two daugh­ters. When they were banished from the colonies, Richard, the family and severalother banished families went up the James River and settled in the hills (near whereLynchburg is now) among the Indians who welcomed them.

Our grandfather, Thomas Stephens, was born c1760. In 1775 he packed his saddle bagwith all of his worldly possessions and mounted his horse and started Southwest,landing on the Ho1stin River in North Carolina territory, now Tennessee, locatingat a landing on the Ashville River and engaged in farming. Thomas joined the com­mand of Gen. Shelby in Col. Sevier's brigade of cavalry and took part in the battleof King's Mountain. Since the Indians were unfriendly to the settlers after theRevolutionary War, the settlers petitioned the government to build a fort on theCumberland River. Grandfather Stephens, having a fine team of horses, was employedby the Government to carry a load of army supplies from Asheville to Fort Nash.Thomas married Martha DAVIS and set out on a convoy of soldiers and wagons for FortNash where they landed safely. He entered a tract of land on Trace Creek, threemiles Southwest of the fort, where my father, Dennis Stephens, was born 16 May 1796.Their six sons and four daughters were:

Marcus D. Lafayette Stephens' account of his Civil War experiences includes oneespecially interesting episode. He joined a company formed in Sarepta, MS January1861. He was mustered into state service as a 2nd Lt. 7 Apr 1861 and sent toCorinth, MS where he was assigned to the 17th Regiment. He was soon promoted tothe rank of Colonel. Marcus was severely wounded in the right thigh and hip duringthe battle at Franklin, TN. "A soldier from the ranks of the enemy leaped over thebreast-works [which the Rebs had failed to capture] and came to me, saying I fearyou are dyeing the blood was spouting from my wound and I was attempting to staunchthe blood with my finger. He said this will never do, taking out his knife, cutthe tail of my coat off, made a bandage and adjusted it around my leg to staunchthe blood, which for the time succeeded. He said to me, rest easy a moment and Iwill remove you behind our breast-works, he soon came back with a litter and threeother men... " They delivered him to Col. Stewart of the l69th Illinois Regimentwho said "let me send you further back, if your men charge again they will kill youwith their stray bullets." There was an attack during which he was moved acrossthe river in an ambulance, but then laid on the roadside. In the confusion of theenemy's hasty retreat, he was left on the "hard frozen" ground and soon became verycold. liAs they passed me some one cursed and abused me, others spoke kindly to meand one soldier said to me, 'you will freeze here before morning' ••.he pulled fromhis soldiers a pair of heavy blankets and placed them over me. I asked him his name.My name is H.A. BARR, my home is at Willow Springs, Nebraska•.• 'God bless you.'Soon another soldier passed and said 'you will freeze here if not protected fromthat cold wind' and placed boxes of crackers and other army supplies around me toprotect me from the North wind." Once again, another soldier saw my plight andgathered some kindlingwood, split boxes and made a good fire at my feet and passedon. To these three I no doubt owe my life. At dawn Maj. PULLIAN, of my regiment,found me; I was moved to Col. McGAVVOCK's residence which had been converted into atemporary hospital. One doctor wanted to amputate my leg but I made Dr. ROBERTSpromise not to. I told them I had an uncle living five miles away where I could re­main until I got well. As we passed the family graveyard where my grandparents,Hudson, were buried, they were burying five Spratt family members. He had rested athis uncle's house a few days when his Adjutant, Ed McAFEE, came to inform him thatGen. HOOD's army was retreating from Nashville and the enemy would soon be there.McAfee wanted to know if Col. Stephens was able to travel. "I stuffed some wool inmy pants leg, and mounted my horse with assistance and turned my face toward my dearold home." As they traveled about 15 miles per day, he and his servant, MarseFAYETT, were given food and shelter by many kind people along the way, one was hisuncle, Samuel HUDSON, of Florence. He survived his wound but walked with a crutch.

WHAT HAPPENED TO ONE TENNESSEAN - Submitted by Lucy Shull Stevens,803 Roxboro Road, Rockville, MD 20850-3823

Where are you going to find records of your ancestors and how long will it take?We often ponder these questions, but the following story should make you hope; nevergive up and keep searching. Lucy Stevens relates the following:

My Mother never travelled anywhere that she did not find some place (usually a CourtHouse or Library) where she could manage a little genealogical research. She and mystepfather were en route to E1 Paso, TX to visit her only sister when they stoppedovernight near Bolivar, TN. She prevailed upon her husband to give her time to lookat the marriage records. We were trying to verify the marriage location of my greatgrandfather, Martin Hadley SHULL, born 23 Aug 1811 in Mississippi Territory, and hiswife, Matilda NORRIS, born 30 Ju1 1819 Tennessee. We knew the birth and marriagedates from the family Bible. There in Bolivar, TN was a license issued to oneMartin H. SHELL and Mati1d Norris on 24 Feb 1834.

Supposedly, this couple had left Hardeman Co TN with a group of people migrating toTexas. I had not been able to pick them up on the census list and only vaguely knewthat they had probably died in Sabine Parish, LA. My grandfather's obituary saidthat he, William Levi Shull, was born 23 Apr 1840 in Trinity Co TX. Since my unclehad written the obit, I knew he would not have given the location unless Grandpa hadtold him.

Years passed, and a cousin sent me a picture of my great grandfather with my grand­father, grandmother and six of their eight children. We determined it was made in1896. A local county paper in Sabine Parish was publishing "Pictures of the Past"in 1984-85, so I sent the negative to them, and named each person therein, whom theymarried, and where they were buried and their parents' names. I stated that I didnot know where either Martin Hadley or Matilda Norris Shull were buried, but pre­sumably in Sabine Parish.

Some time after the picture was published, I received a letter from a man of Spanishdescent who lived in Sabine Parish. He stated that he and his wife had been walkingin the woods one day in 1965 (twenty years before:) and had come upon a small bury­ing ground with three or four graves, only one of which had a headstone. It readMati1d Norris, d. 15 Oct 1861. I was so excited. Last October, I flew to Louisianaand attended a Homecoming at the country church where my father and grandparents areburied, and this man took me and a cousin out to see the grav~ site. It was a longway from any present road, although tradition has it that near these graves was aroad once called "the Old Texas Road." What a thrill:

HAYDON WELLS - TENNESSEE PIONEER - Contributed by Mrs. Clara Hamlett Robertson,303 West Bank #2, Salisbury, NC 28144

Mrs. Robertson is the daughter of James Morrison HAMLETT and Maude CLIFTON of Clarks­ville, Montgomery Co TN. Haydon WELLS (1744-c1820) is her father's maternal greatgreat grandfather. James M. Hamlett's mother, Susan Elizabeth MORRISON, was thedaughter of first cousins, both named Morrison. One of them is believed to be thedaughter of Josiah Morrison and Nancy Wells who married in 1807 when Nancy was just13 years old and Josiah was 19. Nancy was the daughter of Haydon's son, Robert Wells.

Haydon was born in Overwharton Parish, Stafford Co VA 9 Sep 1744. He was both asurveyor and a millwright - trades which were valued in pioneer Tennessee. Mrs.Robertson believes his wife was Margaret DRURY. Haydon Wells and Margaret recordeda deed of sale of negroes to William CONDRA in Montgomery Co TN 13 Dec 1798 andearlier in 1794. Two of their sons are named in deeds: Haydon to son, Robert Wells,200 A on McAdoo Creek of his father's preemption, Montgomery Co TN 16 Aug 1793, andBenjamin Drury Wells is named in Davidson Co TN 20 Oct 1810: "Haydon Wells and son,Benjamin, both of Washington Co MS, party of the 3rd part."

It is also believed he was Methodist since, as executor of Gen. Winchest~r's will,he was given authority to disperse certain assets to the Methodist Church. Hisgranddaughter, Nancy Wells Morrison, and her family were Methodists in Salem Com­munity of Montgomery Co; and one grandson, Henry Clay Morrison, became Bishop,serving 1898-1919 with his office in Atlanta, GA.

Haydon Wells' signature is large, distinctive and easily read. It appears on theResolutions signed at Nashborough 13 May 1780 which were sent to the North CarolinaLegislature and on the 1817 document to the U.S. Congress requesting that the partof the Mississippi Territory (which later became the State of Alabama) which wasdrained by the Tombigbee River south to Mobile Bay and the Gulf of Mexico•.. beexcluded from the portion under consideration as part of the proposed new State ofMississippi, drained by the Mississippi River.

According to a new book titled 1770-1780 Census of the Cumberland Settlements:Davidson, Sumner and Tennessee Counties (In What is Now Tennessee) by Richard Carl­ton FULCHER. 1987., on page 128 the following account of Haydon Wells is given ­"Wells, ~don (variously, Aydon, Headon) - came overland with the Heaton partyarriving at the French Lick, Dec. 24, 1779: Signer of the Cumberland Compact, May,1780: Helped build Heaton's Station, completed in the spring of 1782: Member of theCommittee of the Cumberland Association, Jan., 1783: Served on the first Grand Jury,Oct. 7, 1783: Listed in the North Carolina Preemption Act of 1784, as one of thesettlers on the Cumberland in 1780, who stayed and defended the Settlements, andentitled to 640 acres without any price to be paid to the public: He was a one-eyedman: 1787 Davidson Co. tax roll with 1 taxable: Summoned for Davidson Co jury dutyon the Superior Court of the Law and Equity, May, 1789: North Carolina land grants."

Haydon Wells' brothers founded Wells Station near Shelbyville, KY between Louisvilleand Frankfort about 1775. One of their sons was named after his uncle as well asHaydon's son, Robert, had a son named Hayden E. Wells. Haydon built the first gristmill at Nashborough in 1780/81; constructed the first log Court House in Clarks­ville, TN and was a surveyor whose name is found on many pages of early land grantsand deed books, especially in early Montgomery Co TN.

FRANCIS ASBURY·S TRAVELS IN TENNESSEEBy Betsy Foster West

(Continued from Fall issue)

177

True to his "methodical" heritage, Bishop Francis Asbury planned the year1803 along the same pattern he had formed for his travel - winter in the south, andspring and summer in New England, leaving the western circuit for fall and his re­turn to the south. By September he was crossing a corner of present-day West Vir­ginia into the new state of Ohio. This territory had been admitted to the Union onMarch 1st of that year with a population of about 100,000, but in 1796 it was stilla wilderness. In that year the Federal Government had granted to Ebenezer Zane atract of land on the Muskingum River on the condition that he open a road acrosssouthern Ohio. Asbury remarked " ••. it is but four years since Zane opened the roadfor the general government through the wilderness so lately called, and now there arethe towns of Marietta at the mouth of the Muskingum, of about one thousand houses;Cincinnati, containing as many; Hamilton, of five hundred houses; and many otherswhose names are scarcely fixed."

The Asbury party crossed the Ohio River and rode to the Kentucky Confer­ence, which was held in Harrison County, not far from Cynthiana, and by October 8th,the bishop was again headed down the Wilderness Road toward East Tennessee. The min­isters accompanying him were McKendree, Garratt, Douthet and Granade.

14 Oct 1803 - "We came to Hunt's at Claibornes court house (Ta~ewell) andnext day reached Martin Stubblefield's."

The Stubblefield brothers, Thomas, Joseph and Martin, lived at County Linebetween Bean Station and Morristown. Martin was later killed by his runaway team inCincinnati, where he was buried. Asbury's observations continue:

"What a road we have passed! certainly the worst on the whole continent,even in the best weather; yet bad as it was, there were four or five hundred cross­ing the rude hills whilst we were. I was powerfully struck with the considerationthat there were at least as many thousand emigrants annually from east to west; wemust take care to send preachers after these people •.. A man who is well mounted willscorn to complain of the roads when he sees men, women, and children, almost naked,paddling bare-foot and bare-legged along, or labouring up the rocky hills, whilstthose who are best off have only a horse for two or three children to ride at once.If these have little or nothing to eat, it is no extraordinary circumstance; and notuncommon to encamp in the wet woods after night - in the mountains it does not rain,but pours ••. I too have my sufferings ...no room to retire to - that in which you sitcommon to all, crowded with women and children, the fire occupied by cooking•.. soli­tude not to be found, unless you choose to run out into the rain ••• but the peopleare amongst the kindest souls in the world. But kindness will not make a crowdedlog cabin, twelve feet by ten, agreeable; without are cold and rain; and within, sixadults and as many children, one of which is all motion; the dogs too must sometimesbe admitted. On Saturday, at Felix Ernest's, I found that amongst my other trials,I had taken the itch; and considering the filthy houses and filthy beds I have metwith in coming from the Kentucky Conference, it is perhaps strange that I have notcaught it twenty times •.. "

24 Oct 1803 - "we came off in earnest; refreshed at Isaiah Harrison's, andcontinued on to the Paint mountain, passing the road newly made, which makes theroad down to Paint Creek much better. I lodged with Mr. Neilson, who treated melike a minister, a Christian, and a gentleman."

From this point, Asbury entered North Carolina. Is it any wonder that hedid not return to Tennessee and Kentucky until l805!

On October 25th, 1805 he was again entering Tennessee on the WildernessRoad and remarked "the road was bad .•• Our carriage had nearly upset. I am decided

178

to take the Cumberland path hereafter ..• " The party rested a day at the Stubble­field's, then the diary continues:

17 Oct 1805 - "We crossed Main Holston and came into Tennessee, and putinto Colonel Conaway's, Little Nolachiskey; we rested here on Friday (18 Oct). AtMoses Ellis's, on Saturday, we saw Moses Black and his wife - he about forty, andshe fifteen; such are the wise contracts Methodist preachers sometimes make. Sunday••• we passed Quorton's ferry upon Great Nolachucky. In crossing the Paint Mountain,on Monday, we rode up, and walked down; and I sprained my ankle."

So ended another dreary trip across the mountains. The notes in the 1958edition say that Moses Black was serving the Nollichucky Circuit. He was admittedto the conference in 1796 and located in 1806 but was readmitted in 1808. He diedwhile serving Carter's Valley Circuit in Hawkins County, TN on 10 Feb 1809.

Almost another year passed, and Asbury returned to Tennessee, this timeentering from Virginia.

2 Sep 1806 - "I was weak, but attended the appointment of the stationedpreacher, A. Houston •.. next day I rode thirty miles over to Edward Cox's."

4 Sep 1806 - "I lodged at the widow Lewis's, on Beaver Creek."6 Sep 1806 - "I preached at Charles Helton's, upon Main Holston ••• "7 Sep 1806 - "We crossed Holston at the mouth of watauga: the Sabbath I do

not usually employ in travelling - sometimes when I fall in with the circuit prea­chers. I was very close in my discourse at Dingworth's •.• I lodged at WilliamNelson's an ancient home and stand for Methodists and Methodist preaching••. "

20 Sep 1806 - "The Western Conference commenced its sitting..• The Missis­sippi missionary preachers could not be spared, they thought, from their work, andtherefore did not come .•• I preached a funeral discourse on the death of our dearfriend Whatcoat .•• "

The notes say that this conference was held at Ebenezer meetinghouse inGreene County, and that Bishop Richard Whatcoat had died on 5 Jul 1806 in the homeof Richard Bassett at Dover, Delaware. So, another year passed.

As Asbury grew older, the entries in his journal grew shorter. His Ten­nessee entry for 1807 covers less than a week, but this visit did not include a Con­ference meeting. Moreover, the Asbury party travelled over roads well-known andalready described in the journal, namely the Wilderness Road from Kentucky and theroads across Greene County to North Carolina. After remarking about the "seriouswant of water, generally, in the western lands", the journal entry reads:

12 Oct 1807 - "We had a heavy ride to Holston, forty miles. We stoppedwith Martin Stubblefield."

13 Oct 1807 - "Tuesday we rested; and it may be allowed, considering oursix days ride through heat, great heat and drought ..• "

16 Oct 1807 - "We reached Wamping's. I suffered much today; but an hour'swarm bath for my feet relieved me considerably."

17 Oct 1807 - "On Saturday we rode to Killian's."One might wonder if the great drought referred to here could have caused

a general migration further west, or northwest into the new state of Ohio. The notesof the 1958 edition give us no clue as to who "Wamping" might be, but he must havelived in Greene County, because the entry of 17 Oct 1807 appears under the headingof North Carolina.

In 1808 Bishop Asbury entered Tennessee from south central Kentucky, thecave area of Warren County, near Bowling Green. This year he would spend a month at­tending a conference and travelling across the Cumberlands to East Tennessee.

23 Sep 1808 - "Friday evening brought us up at brother Porter's, fromMaryland, now of Warren County. On Saturday we came upon the camp with Bishop

McKendree. On Sunday we had preaching as usual .•.We came no farther than Woodard'son Monday."

The Warren County referred to above must be the one in Kentucky, becauseAsbury's party had just come from the Green River area of Kentucky, through WarrenCounty and on to Nashville. McKendree had been elected Bishop at the General Con­ference held at Baltimore in May and was en route to the Western Conference to beheld at the home of Green Hill in Williamson County, TN.

27 Sep 1808 - " .•.we passed through Nashville. This town has greatly im­proved in eight years. There are several valuable houses built, an elegant courthouse, and a college. We put in at Green Hill's, Williamson County."

Green Hill's home, Liberty Hill, was located near present Brentwood; thechurch he built nearby was also called Liberty Hill. This was McKendree's "homeconference" where he had been presiding Elder; it was the first conference where hepresided as a bishop. Here he first introduced the "cabinet" of Presiding Elders asparticipants in the work of making the appointments of the preachers, a strange andnot entirely pleasing innovation to Asbury.

1 Oct 1808 - "I began conference ...Our conference was a camp meeting,where the preachers ate and slept in tents. We sat six hours a day, stationedeighty-three preachers, and all was peace ...We made a regulation respecting slavery:it was that no member of society, or preacher, should sell or buy a slave unjustly,inhumanly or covetously; the case, on complaint, to be examined for a member by thequarterly meeting; and for a preacher an appeal to an annual conference. Whereguilt was proved the member to be expelled. The families of the Hills, Sewalls, andCannon were greatly and affectionately attentive to us."

8 Oct 1808 - "We came rapidly to Stone's River, and thence to Crane's ••• "9 Oct 1808 - "At the meeting house I preached ... I called on Hardy Hunt."On his way to the Holston country, Asbury crossed Stones River and pro-

ceeded by way of the present Lebanon and Carthage. Henry Boehm, who had beenappointed to travel with Asbury, states in his Reminiscences, Historical and Bio­graphical, of Sixty-Four Years in the Ministry (1865) "Everywhere the old and thenew bishops were objects of interest, and their appearance hailed with joy. On Mon­day we reached Dr. Henry Tooley's. This a family of note, and their house one ofthe best of homes. Here we rested and refitted and prepared to climb the mountainsand to penetrate the wilderness."

12 Oct 1808 - "The rain caught us on Wednesday, and fell on us with littleintermission until we got to our home at Shaw's in Carthage. On Thursday evening Icame in very unwell to Johnson's. We had not above fifty travellers in company! AtHailey's next night, we were not so crowded and did better. There is order observedunder this roof. We breakfasted at S.W. Point on Saturday, and then hastened on toWinton's ••• I preached on the Sabbath at Winton's Chapel ...after preaching we crossedHolston and rode ten miles to meet the people at John Saffle's."

This segment of the journey eastward was somewhat familiar to the "oldbishop", for it was the same route he had traveled in 1802, but some of the names ofthe settlers are different. Shaw at Carthage was an old friend, but Johnson was anew name here. The Rhea map locates Johnston's Stand at the point where Overton,Fentress and Morgan Counties met in 1832, which appears to be somewhere within thetriangle formed by present-day Monterey, Mayland and Plateau in Putnam and Cumber­land Counties. Perhaps this is the place where the Asbury party stopped. Hailey isnot identified, but he lived between Crossville and Kingston, if not in Kingston.John Winton was also an old friend (see A.N., Vol. 34, No.3). The notes say thatJohn Saffle lived near a small church close to Middle Settlement in Blount County,which is the oldest church in that county.

Francis ASbury's Travels in Tennessee (continued)

"Ansearchin'" News

17 Oct 1808 - "We started in the rain on Monday to Maryville, called uponMark Moore, and continued to Esquire Black's and lodged."

18 Oct 1808 - "Tuesday, came to Mitchell Porter's, on Pigeon River; Wednes­day rain, Thursday, rain; we crossed the river twice ...On Friday James Riggan cametwenty miles. breasting the rains and plunging through the swollen streams, to seeme ... We started away on Saturday, wade or swim, foul or fair, across the east forksof Little and Great Pigeon; the waters were full enough."

Mark Moore had joined the conference in 1786 and was alternately a localand a traveling preacher until his final location in 1820. At this time he was alocal preacher living near Maryville, TN. Squire Black lived between Maryville andSevierville. Mitchell Porter was host to Asbury on 1 Nov 1802.

23 Oc·t 1808 - "Sunday, at O'Haver's a camp meeting had been appointed bythe preachers and people. Bishop McKendree and brother Boehm spoke, as well as bro­ther Blackman and myself. Brother Bowman spoke at night .•. Our party came away toGeorge Wells's. On Tuesday we rode twenty miles to the Warm Springs, and next dayreached Buncombe •.. "

John O'Haver was an old friend of Asbury's, but the preachers Bowman andBlackman are not identified. George Wells evidently lived twenty miles west of theTennessee/North Carolina line where Warm Springs is located. The reference to Bun­combe refers to Asheville, NC. While he was in Asheville, Bishop Asbury stayed withHenry Erwin, "a chief man." Erwin was born in Virginia in 1773 and died in BedfordCounty, Tennessee in 1833. He went to North Carolina in 1790 and was a merchant andinnkeeper at Wilkesboro. He represented Wilkes County in the House of Commons in1800 and was the first postmaster of Asheville.

In his journal Asbury commented "Henry Boehm went to Pigeon Creek topreach to the Dutch." Boehm had left after the camp meeting at O'Haver's campgroundin Cocke County, TN and had made a detour to preach to the German-speaking people onthe Pigeon River of western North Carolina.

Once more the aging bishop completed his round of duties to the WesternDistrict and headed south for the winter.

By 1809, the camp meetings had grown in popularity and fervor; Asburylisted four in the Muskingum District of Ohio, and seventeen in the Miami District.Indiana District also held seventeen meetings. After completing the Ohio Conference,the traveling preachers and both bishops crossed Kentucky; Bishop McKendree andThomas Lasley turned southwest to the Cumberland District, while Asbury and HenryBoehm took the Wilderness Road to Cumberland Gap and the Holston country.

19 Oct 1809 - "Came away on Thursday across Powell's and Clinch Rivers,and reached Cheek's for the night .•• We crossed Holston at Marshall's ford on Satur­day. Squire Read has built a neat pine chapel in a short time. We lodged with him."

Mr. Cheek is not identified, but Squire Read was Phelps Read, whose chapelwas located south of Marshall's ford and two miles east of Morristown, TN.

22 Oct 1809 - "Sabbath. I gave them a discourse on Rom. xii, 6-20. Patti­son, Stier and Boehm followed ••• I spoke at Benjamin Van Pelt's on Monday ••• at War­rensburg next day •.. We dined with the elders of the house of Conway, and lodged withthe only son, Thomas Conway. Preached at O'Haver's chapel on Wednesday. Dined andcame on to friend Ellis's. We suppose we have made three hundred and forty milessince we left Cincinnati .•• I preached at Harrison's chapel .•• "

Of the three ministers who were traveling with Asbury, two were assignedto Tennessee: William Pattison was serving Nolichucky Circuit, and Frederick Stierwas Presiding Elder of the Holston Districe. Henry Boehm, of course, was assignedto travel with Bishop Asbury. Van Pelt's was on Lick Creek in Greene County (see 28May 1790), and Warrensburg was not far away, at the juncture of Little Chucky and

Winter 1987

Nolichucky Rivers, still in Greene County. Henry Conway was the head of a notablefamily; two of his daughters married sons of Gov. John Sevier. O'Haver, Ellis andHarrison were old friends. Harrison's chapel was on the south side of Nolichucky inGreene County. This route was the same one Asbury had used for so many years; sure­ly there were minor changes, but few choices could be offered in such a rugged ter­rain. New settlers heard his preaching, but it was with the old and true friendsthat he stopped.

Two of these old friends were hosts to Bishop Asbury and his aide, HenryBoehm, when they returned to Tennessee in 1810. Accompanied by Bishop McKendree andJames Gwinn, they were entering Middle TN from the south-central route in Kentucky.

14 Nov 1810 - "Thursday, a damp heavy ride brought us in about threeo'clock to James Gwinn's ... The advantages of being on horseback are that I can bet­ter turn aside to visit the poor, I can get along more difficult and intricate roads,I shall save money to give away to the needy, and lastly, I can be more tender to mypoor, faithful beast. Friday, rested, fasted, read, wrote letters. Saturday, visit­ed James McKendree, lately from Virginia.

James Gwinn was a preacher who lived near Fountain Head in Sumner County,TN. He was a pioneer and a chaplain in Andrew Jackson's army at the Battle of NewOrleans. One of his sons, WID M. Gwinn, became a member of the u.~. Senate. JamesMcKendree was the brother of Bishop William McKendree. He also lived in SumnerCounty, as did his father.

18 Nov 1810 - "Sabbath, I rode to Gwinn's Chapel - a nice building. Be­hind it the cabins and the ground make a charming square for a camp meeting. Monday,we had a damp muddy ride to friend Haines's. His wife was surprised - she recollec­ted me. How frequently we find our wandering sheep in traveling! ... Lodged with JohnMcGee. Tuesday to Dr. Tooley's. Wednesday, a ride of thirty miles brought us toShaw's. Thursday, fifteen miles to breakfast at Quarles's; twenty-five miles to sup­per at Elder Terry's. Friday, to the Crab Orchard; thence to Major Hailey's. Sat­urday, to Kingston, thirteen miles; thence to Winton's twenty miles."

This paragraph in the Journal outlines a week of the bishop's life. Someof the people he stayed with were old friends, but Haines, Quarles, Elder Terry andMajor Hailey seem to be new hosts. Asbury must have known the Haines family in someother location, but at this time they were located between Fountain Head in SumnerCounty and Dixon Springs in Smith County. From Shaw's near Carthage, the partyseemed to travel Highway 70N to its junction with Highway 70 near Crossville andKingston. Note that this is the first time South West Point is referred to as Kings­ton. Winton's is at Muddy Creek, near present Martel, 4 miles from Lenoir City, inLoudon County.

25 Nov 1810 - "Sabbath. I preached at Winton's ... a damp, cold, drearyrough ride brought us very hungry to Joseph Black's, where man and beast were fed,and kindly entertained. Tuesday we came to dinner to father Obadiah Fowler's, andthen pushed on to Porter's. Snow most of the day ... Thursday we were in doubt wheth­er we should take the old or the new route; we took Mahon's road and got alongpretty well, thirty miles to the gate; the woman was sick, but the girls of thehouse were attentive and polite at Mr. Mahon's."

From Winton's in Loudon County, the party pressed on toward the east toMaryville and beyond to Little River, near which Joseph Black lived, and to Fowler'son the west side of Little Pigeon River near Sevierville. Mitchell Porter livedthree miles south of Sevierville on present Highway 71, between Sevierville and Gat­linburg, near Porter's Chapel. The place is now called Zion Cemetery.

Mahon's Road approximated present Highway 73 from Gatlinburg to Cosby,Cocke County, TN. The Mahon home stood at the point referred to as "the gate" where

182 "Ansearchin'" News

the road from Newport intercepted. It was a toll gate; here Asbury and his partybegan to ascend the mountains.

30 Nov 1810 - "Friday, our troubles began at the foaming, roaring stream,which hid the rocks. At Cataloochee I walked over a log. But 0, the mountain ­height after height, and five miles over! After crossing other streams, and losingourselves in the woods, we came in about nine o'clock at night to Vater Shuck's.What an awful day! Saturday, December 1. Last night I was strongly afflicted withpain. We rode twenty-five miles to Buncombe."

Once again the ailing bishop had crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains. Todaya super-highway curves its serpentine way across the Tennessee-North Carolina line,but in 1810 men on horseback led horses across rocky, treacherous streams, even inDecember snowstorms, following the aboriginal Cataloochee trail.
