My family was from the other side of the valley toward the Clinch and Powell rivers. They were Union.

Bless your heart- it took courage to admit that publicly ;o)

LOL It's nothing to be ashamed of. One of her ancestors also fought beside Old Hickory and served under him very high rank. There were a couple of Generals in her family one a Westpoint grad who's classmates were ones such as Longstreet, Grant, Bragg, etc. Her family was among the first to settle what is now Sevier County and friends of John Sevier himself.
