Their family as far as I know: Napoleon B. Blevins

Napoleon Bonaparte BLEVINS was the son of William R. BLEVINS (b.c. 1774 - 1854) and Mary "Polly" (Cawood?) (b.c. 1785 - aft 1860). William R. BLEVINS lived in the Iron Mountains and was listed as an Iron Master in the 1850 census. Again, he lived in Carter Co. TN (originally Sullivan Co. TN, I believe) and this region became eventually Johnson Co. TN. There is a will listed for William R. BLEVINS dated as 1854 in Will Book I of Johnson Co. TN. I have only an abstract of this will but will try to get a photocopy of it when I can get a chance. Most of his family, I have pieced together from this will.

Their family as I know it: William R. Blevins

As for the parents of William R. BLEVINS, I can only hazard a guess at this time from the deeds of Sullivan Co. TN as a son of Col. William BLEVINS or John BLEVINS. Both families intermarried and I am not clear which BLEVINS family belongs to whom.
Owen

Her branch is descended through William Riley BLEVINS, the son of Andrew Jackson BLEVINS, the son of Richard BLEVINS and Elizabeth "Betsy" JONES. From record abstracts taken the Eastern Cherokee Ancestry U.S. Court of Claims, Richard BLEVINS and Elizabeth JONES were said to have been married in Monroe Co. TN and lived there until 1837 when they moved west to AR. Betsy was said to be half-blood Cherokee. From various records, I have pieced together only a piece of their family.

Their family as I know it:

As for the SCHULTZ family, I know very little. The two sisters, Delilah and Susan, were said to be daughters of Martin SCHUTZ and Sarah T. ROWDEN. Martin was said to be the son of Valentine SHULTZ. The family is said to be from AL. What information do you have on the SCHULTZ family?

Also you might be interested to know that Martin BLEVINS, a son of Armstead and Delilah, was the father of the BLEVINS family that was involved in the Pleasant Valley War in Holbrook, AZ. They were almost wiped out in a series of infamous gunfights, most notably the gunfight with Commodore Perry Owens on their homestead near Holbrook, AZ. I have more detailed information if anyone is interested.
Owen

There are two BLEVINS by that name, the eldest born about 1789 and the other born about 1813, both probably in Sullivan Co. TN. I will assume you want information on the elder.

Gatewood BLEVINS (c. 1789 - aft 1860) apparently married at least twice, as he has several children listed in the census that were born prior to the marriage I have for him. He apparently married Catharine HUGHS (c.1796 - aft 1860) on May 8, 1834 in Carter Co. TN. He is listed in the 1850 census of Washington Co. VA and the 1860 census of Independence Co. AR.

His family is follows: Gatewood Blevins

I do not know that Gatewood BLEVINS was a son of Col. William BLEVINS but I do know that he was a descendant. Here is an abstract from the deed Books for Sullivan Co. TN which are the only early records from the courthouse in Blountville that survived when the courthouse was destroyed in the Civil War.

"Indenture made 2 Jan 1812 between Gatewood BLEVINS, descended from and heir to Wm BLEVINS, commonly called Colonel, late of Sullivan Co. Tenn, dec'd, on one part and John BLEVINS, son of the said Wm BLEVINS, on the other part. The said Gatewood BLEVINS, ... for $50.00 relinquishes to the said John BLEVINS ... "all my individual share ... in land belonging to the estate now in possession of Ann BLEVINS, widow of the said Wm BLEVINS deceased." Wit: Caleb MORRELL, Nathan MORRELL, Jesse MORRELL. Proved in court, May session of 1812 by oaths of Caleb MORRELL and Nathan MORRELL. (Bk. 6, p. 220)"

Gatewood BLEVINS is also mentioned in another deed.

"This Indenture made and entered into this 20th day of November, One Thousand Eight Hundred and Eighteen by and between William BLEVINS, James BLEVINS, John BLEVINS, John BLEVINS Snr and Gatewood BLEVINS, Wanters BLEVINS, Sarah BLEVINS, Clary BLEVINS, Pattsy BLEVINS, Elizabeth BLEVINS, John CAWOOD & wife Happy CAWOOD, James LOVELACE & wife Nancy of the one part and William MACKEY and Joseph RHEA of the County of Sullivan and State of Tennessee of the other part.

On May 10, 1771 there is a deed between George LUMKIN and his wife Mary, and William BLEVINS "the youngest son of William the Elder of the said Colony". On Aug 29, 1771 there is a deed between William BLEVINS, Son of William BLEVINS and Ann his wife of Pittsylvania Co. VA and George LUMKIN of the same county and Colony.

I would also make William BLEVINS, the Elder much older. If his youngest son Col. William BLEVINS had been married to Ann by 1771, that should make William BLEVINS, the Elder probably in his late 40's or 50's at that time. He had settled in the area around 1748 and if Elisha WALDEN/WALLING "the longhunter", who was born about 1735, was his son-in-law, I believe William BLEVINS, the Elder would have to be born around 1710.

Now back to Green Co. KY. The only biographical sketch of a family in the area comes from the sketch of Thomas J. BLEVINS.

"Thomas J. BLEVINS was born Juen 29, 1851, in Green County, near the Taylor line. He is the fifth of six sons and four daughters, eight of whom lived to be grown, born to Gabriel and Mary E. (MEARS) BLEVINS. Gabriel was born in April 1817, in Green County, and with the exception of two or three years in Indiana, has constantly lived here, engaged in farming, although a mechanic. He represented Green and Taylor Counties in the Legislature in 1877-78, and has served as magistrate for twelve years. He is a son of Charles BLEVINS, who was born in 1790, in Green County, and was a minister of the United Baptist Church; also served as magistrate for sixteen years (was a teacher in his younger days), and was a substantial farmer and slave-holder. He married Sarah ROARK, a native of Kentucky, by whom four sons and three daughters were reared, and died in 1884. He was a a son of William BLEVINS, a native of Ireland, who married a Miss SKAGGS; he first settled in South Carolina, was a soldier under Gen. Marion in the war for independence, and was one of the earliest settlers of Green County, Ky.

Mrs. Mary E. BLEVINS was born in September 1817, in Green, now Taylor County, Ky.; she was a daughter of Moses MEARS, a native of Taylor County, who married Eda HAMILTON, a native of Tompkinsville, Ky. He died in 1873, aged sevety-six. He was a son of Thomas MEARS, who was a soldier in the war of 1812, and was also engaged in the many battles with Indians in the early settlement of Green County. He was of Irish descent, and died just before the late civil war, at the advanced age of one hundred and five years. Mrs. BLEVINS first married Garrett UNDERWOOD, to whom one son was born. Thomas J. BLEVINS was born in Green County, and was reared on a farm. After he became old enough to support and educate himself, he successfully taught for seven years in the common schools of the county. His first school was taught in a cabin, the door of which was not sufficient in height to admit a grown person erect. In 1874 he purchased his first farm of 100 acres, but now owns 200 acres, which he has procured by his own efforts, and has it substantially improved with good buildings. August 9, 1880, he married Margaret T., a daughter of Ferris BENNETT, a native of Taylor County. This union is blessed with tow bright children. Mr. BLEVINS now resides eight miles northwest of Greensburg, where he has constantly lived since his marriage. He and his wife are members of the Baptist Church. In 1876, he commenced the study of law, and in 1877 received license to practice. In politics he is a Democrat, and cast his first presidential vote for Tilden."

I have also searched the tax lists of Green Co. KY

(1795 - abt. 1834) to find clues.

The Daniel BLEVINS mentioned above from 1816 - 1820 is probably the Daniel BLEVINS (Jul 18 1794 - 187-) who married Lucy ROBERTS (Oct 11 1798 - 187-) and moved to MO. This is the line Pat Potter (GNNN37A) is descended from. The Hugh A. BLEVINS is most probably Hugh Armstrong BLEVINS, son of Armstead BLEVINS and Keturah CARTER, son of Dillon BLEVINS and Ann ARMSTRONG. He married Emily KING and later Sarah COOPENDER and settled Blevins, Hempstead Co. AR in 1832.
Owen

What puzzles me is that in the papers he states he was married to Lucy Robertsin Green Co. Ky, in 1815, in family records it was stated he was married in Greensburg, 1815, but I can find no proof of that at all. Have found brothers but not him. I wonder if he was there before 1816. The pension papers do mention some pieces of land. Hope all is well, still haven't heard from my Troy and Bendena relatives!

Re the biographical sketch, is it the 1884 biographical sketch by Perrin? If so, where is the sketch taken from and who's Perrin?

The sketch indicated that Charles was born 1790 in Green Co. However, Green Co. wasn't formed until 1793 from Lincoln and Nelson Cos. The Green Co. tax lists indicated that Charles was on Brush Creek, Little Brush Creek and Pitman Creek at various times. If he was born in any of those locations, all of which are north of the Green River (the dividing line between Lincoln and Nelson Cos. in 1790 with Nelson Co. north of the river), then Charles was born in Nelson Co., VA. (Kentucky was a part of Virginia until 1792.)

The sketch also indicated that Charles "reared" four sons and three daughters. But the 1830 census indicates five sons (1 10-15, 1 5-10, and 3 under 5) and two daughters (1 5-10 and 1 under 5. They have been identified to me as Gabriel, b. 1817; Nathan, b. ca. 1821; Charles, b. ca. 1825 (mine); Reuben, b. ca. 1828; an unnamed son b. late 1820's; an unnamed daughter b. early 1820's; and an unnamed daughter b. late 1820's. The 1850 census also shows a daughter, Narcissa, age 18, which would place her birthdate about 1832 and bring the number of daughters up to three. The word "reared" may indicate that the unnamed son died early.

Re. Thomas Mears, the sketch indicated that he was a soldier in the War of 1812. However, it also says that he died at age 105 just before the Civil War, which I'll say is ca. 1860. That would mean that he was born ca. 1755 which would make him 57 in 1812. I wonder if perhaps there was an error here and the Revolutionary War was meant, although it's possible that he missed it and possibly fought in 1812, or even both wars. Most of my Blevins info from this far back has come from Blevins Ancestry by Bill Dwayne Blevins of Mountain Home, AR. However, not much is documented for the Kentucky Blevinses, so it's dig for whatever's there. If you run into anything more on Charles and Blevins/Skaggs, I'd appreciate it.

Hey, the scratch pad worked! I'll use it from now on for these lengthy discourses.

The Perrin Article is from "Kentucky - A History of the State" by W. H. Perrin, J. H. Battle, and G. C. Kniffin, published in 1887 by F. A. Battey and Co. of Lousiville, KY and Chicago, IL. The old Xerox I have is evidently from the Biographical Sketches of this book.

Joseph was killed by Indians in 1792. I think this is the source of a great many garbled Indians killing Wallings stories and I am trying to collect all I can in hopes of condensing out the truth. Please contact me if you have any Walling questions. I can probably help on anybody but Agnes. She is a complete mystery. I plan to be on *P for a long time.

For everyone's information, I will post some abstracts taken from Draper's notes. I have yet to look through the microfilm of Draper's notes myself but I will to do so in the near future. Taken from Vol. 6? of the VIRGINIA HISTORICAL MAGAZINE, the interview with Major John REDD:

"(Question) 6th. I hardly think it probable that WALDEN, with some 16 others, ever established a hunting camp in POWELL's Valley as early as 1761. there is no doubt but WALDIN was a long hunter as early as 1761, and probable before that day. the long hunters hardly ever went with more than two or three in a company, besides as you remarke at that period war existed between the Indians and whites, and it would have been the very highth of folly for 16 men to have gone at that time to POWELL's valley. It is vary probable that WALDEN, COX & BLEVINS established a hunting camp in POWEL's valley a few years after 1761, for the BLEVINSES & COXES were a vary numerous family, and many of them were long hunters; they lived on SMITH's river in the neighborhood with WALDEN, and they were connected to him by marriage. If WALDEN had of establish a station in POWELs valley in 1761, I am satisfied that I should have heard something of it. WALDEN was a man of darke skin about 5 feet 10 or 11 inches; a big, square built and weighed a bout 180 pounds, vary cours fetures, ordinary intellect and was regarded as a very honest and correct man in all his transactions. When I became aquainted with him in 1774, he was about 40 years of age. WALDEN had vary little property, he never cultivated the soil but lived entirely by hunting. I know not where WALDEN was from originally. When I first knew him he lived on SMITH's river at a place called the round-about, near the centre of the conty, and about two miles east of Martainsville, the present county seat of henry, he lived near his wife's fathers, Will. BLEVENES. WALDEN, the BLEVINES & COXES owned no land, but were squatters on land owned bu a company of speculators. During the revolutionary war the assembly of Va. passed a law taht all British subjects owning land in Va. must come in by a ceartin time and take an oath of alegance, and become actual setlers, or ther land would be confiscated. After the act was passed, two of the british subjects owning land in Pitsolvania (now henry), came in and complied with the act of the assembly, the BLEVINSES and COXES, for they feared they would have to pay many years rent they all moved off enmess. The BLEVINSES & COXES settled on the holston a bove the long Isleans. WALDEN settled on the holston about 18 miles above where knoxville now is. I know not how long he lived there. In the year 1776, I called by to see him, he was not at home, his wife informed me that he had gone on a hunt and had been absent for a month. A few years after this he moved to POWEL's valley, remained there a short time, removed from there to Missoura and settled in the vary extreme settlement up the Missoura river. I suppose his object in going to Missoura was to get where game was more plentiful; he followed up hunting as long as he was able to follow the chase; he died on the fronteers of Missoura at a very advanced age; he performed no military duty during the war."

Letter, 18 May 1854, Brice MARTIN, Rural Hill Post Office, Wilson County, Tennessee, to Lyman C. DRAPER, Madison, Wisconsin (Draepr MSS 14DD-16) "[p1] You wish to know what relationship existed between the old Pioneers WALDEN & BLEVINS. WALDEN's wife was the daughter of Capt. Wm. BLEVINS. The last I knew of the BLEVINS they lived in the Watauga region & some if not all of them died in there. But at what time I do not know. The last I knew of WALDEN he was living in Powells Valley, E. T. [p5] From my earliest recollection Capt Mortiker HORD lived and died on Smith's River 1789 or 90. Stephen HORD is not a son of his - neither do I know that he is of his descendants."

Letter, 13 Oct 1853, A. F. WALDEN, Fairland, Livingston County, Missouri, to Lyman C. DRAPER (Draper MSS 6XX-74) " ... as to Old Uncle Elisha WALDEN, I never had any personal acquaintance with him and know very little about him more than hearsay (my Father & others). He moved from Va. to Tennessee, from thence to Ky, thence to Washington Co., Mo, in a very early day as I learned from a Mr. BREWER & Mr. JONES, and as to anything further I cannot say ... I have moved from Howard Co. & my address is as caption."

Letter, 7 July 1842, William MARTIN, Dixon Springs, Tenn, to Lyman C. DRAPER (Draper MSS 3XX-4) "[p9] (HAYWOOD) speaks of WALLEN, BLEVINS and others having, at an early time, explored the West, and given names to rivers, ridges, creeks &c. And that WALLEN gave name to Cumbrland Mountain because he lived in a county of that name. Now it so happened, that I was intimately acquainted with the same WALLEN, in his latter days (the same man fro whom the Ridge and Creek spoken of by HAYWOOD was named). I used to hear him speak of his Western excursions and after I grew up and lived in Powels Valley, at the foot of the Cumberland Mountain, I used to see WALLEN frequently, who at that time lived not far from there; and often conversed with him about Powels Valley, Cumberland Mountain, the Gap &c, but no a word of his having named it. And furthermore, instead of Cumberland County, he at the time lived in Pittsylvania... [p15] Gov. HENRY lived ten miles from my father, Capt. HORD, a great friend of HENRY (as was my father) lived ten miles from us in the opposite direction. ..."

Letter, 9 Mar 1780, Thomas WALKER, French Lick on the Cumberland River, to William PRESTON (Draper MSS 5QQ-21) " (about land entries) ... Thomas WALLING, Elisha WALLING Junior, Joseph MARTIN, Mordicai HORD & probably many others may be willing to inform you of such lands..."

Letter, 19 June 1869, Governor David CAMPBELL, Montcalm, near Abindon, Virginia, to Lyman C. DRAPER (Draper MSS 10DD-80) "[p1] BLEVINS - There were several old men of that name among the early settlers. They lived about twenty miles from here on the Holston, and were noted desperadoes. Two were named William, and one distinguished from the other by the nickname of Devil Will. These men settled on ancient surveys when they came to the country and held possession by force against the authority of the courts. Public officers could not dispossess them. I never heard of more than one or two of their descendants who occupied a respectable stand in society, and one of them, fifty years ago, cut off the ears of his own child, an infant, at Jonesboro, in a fit of jealousy. The Sheriff had to summon to his aid about a hundred men before he could take him. [p2] WALLEN - There wer several old men of that name in the country in early times, and gave the name to the mountain called WALLENS ridge. They were engaged much, I think, in taking up lands, and I know they were involved in land controversies in the courts of Tennessee at their first establishment. My recollection at present is that two of them were named Thomas and Elisha. I was acquainted perhaps with one of them, but am not certain. Their suits were in Superior Court at Jonesboro. Their descendants have made no figure in society." Letter, 6 Dec 1869, Governor David CAMPBELL, Montcalm, near Abingdon, Virginia, to Lyman C. DRAPER (Draper MSS 10DD-83)

"[p3] Thomas and Elisha WALLEN. These two men of whom Major REDD has given you an account, are the same I have heard much about. I do not know whether they lived on the Tennessee or Virginia side of the State line. They resided according to my present recollection in Powells Valley and I think somewhere in the neighborhood of Cumberland Gap where the Kentucky trace, as it was called in early times, crossed the mountain and entered Kentucky country, passing by the Crab Orchard. Cumberland Gap is the point where the Kentucky line strikes the Virginia and Tennessee boundary. The WALLENS located lands in both Virginia & No Carolina and most of their claims lay, I think, near the line of the two States. In the early land controversies in the courts of East Tennessee, the names of the WALLENS, some way or other, seemed to be mixed up with almost every old land claim. They had been either first owner or locater or chain carrier when the Survey was made. I do not recollect ever seeing either of the old men, bu must have seen some of their descendants at the courts in Tennessee. I am under the belief that they died in Tennessee, but cannot speak positively on the subject. One or both the old men attended courts about the years 1798, 1799 & 1800."

Pretty interesting reading. I do believe Gov. CAMPBELL might have been a bit biased in his opinions. If memory serves me correctly, the CAMPBELLS, MARTINS, and SEVIERS were quite active rivals both politically and in land speculation. I think this rivalry came to a head while SEVIER was territorial governor of the lost State of Franklin but I can't remember the exact details. Owen

I do know that this family is closely related to the families outlined in two books, BLEVINS ANCESTRY by Bill Dwayne BLEVINS, 1972 and JONATHAN BLEVINS, SR. OF VA AND HIS DESCENDANTS, by Laccie W. BLEVINS and Ray E. BLEVINS, 1982 OverMountain Press. In the book by Bill Dwayne BLEVINS, he traces the line of Richard BLEVINS (c. 1800 - aft 1870) and Rhoda SCOTT (c. 1798 - ), which is most probably a brother to this William BLEVINS. Richard BLEVINS was a Primitive Baptist Preacher in the Sequatchie Valley Association of Marion Co. TN. They moved in the late summer of 1839 to the Deer Head Cove Community of Dekalb Co. AL (and near Dade Co. GA as this borders the state line.)

The other book covers the line of Jonathan BLEVINS (c1779 - March 21 1863) and his two wives Katy TROXEL ( - 1814) and Sarah MINTON (c. 1805 - ). Their families lived in Wayne Co. KY and Scott Co. TN and are probably close relatives.

At the moment, I will only hazard a guess that the father of Richard BLEVINS and your William BLEVINS is Richard BLEVINS, SR based on the 1830 census records of Marion Co. TN. I will have to do more research as I have little or no information from Marion Co. TN
