• Notes

  William and Jennie lived on a farm, adjacent to his brothers, Frederick and Joseph, about 5 1/2 miles west of Mountain City, in Doe Valley. William was considered prosperous for his time, and an aristocrat. We believe he owned slaves at one time, and unlike many of his family, was sympathetic to the Southern cause.
