I live in Rutherfor Co. I was looking thru the Donelson Genealogy. I am trying to locate anyone with info. on Milberry Donelson, her dad was William, brother to Rachel Jackson. Her and her husbands graves are here on our farm. I have a feeling no one knows they are here. The husbands name is John McGrigor (spelled that way on his rock) As far as I can find out, he was a General. They owned alot of land here. Had slaves and everything. He was 42 and she was 30 when they died. Colera killed them both. He died in 1835 and her in 1836. Months of each other. They had 6 children, one was 2 months old when Milberry died. I wonder who raised the children.
If you have any info, please let me know.
Thanks Delores
