Thx Ben!
I think maybe you are right, but not sure why/how as Cain C. Franklin appears later (1850-70) in neighboring Sumter Co, AL. He was born c.1805-10 in SC or NC (depending on the census you look at! LOL)I checked that volumeof FFRU and noted that the way it is indexed isn't really how they appear in the records. I'm slowly posting images of the actual documents at my website.However, Ifound an item of DEFINITE interest related to my recent Greene County research--The Indian Wars index lists three Franklins, James, Josiah and Thomas J. as all being in McKain's, 2nd TN.The index abstract reads McKoin's but I bet it is McKain's.The Greene County deed record for James Franklin lists him as residing in Sumner County, TN and as appointing his good friend James McKain as his power-of-attorney.TN research shows James Franklin married in 1803 Sumner Co, TN to Prudence "Prudy" McKain daughter of James McKain. Now I'm searching for info on the military service of James, Josiah and Thomas J.!!Any assistance GREATLY appreciated!!
Thx!
