Hi,
If this helps in the Scott research.

!Marriages from "Early Tennessee Newspapers - 1794/1851" (ref. H976.8-MAR., So. Hist. Press-H'ville library). Richard Bearden JR. married in Knox Co., Tenn., to Catherine Scott, daughter of Thomas Scott; per National Banner & Nashville Daily Advertiser (Mon., Feb. 13, 1832). from Theresa Stirbis book page 287.



!From The French Broad-Holston Country page 377 Marcus DeLafayette Oct 18,
1799-June 11,1854. His grandfather, Benjamin Bearden,was a patriot of the
American Revolution. His father, Richard Bearden born in Granville county,
North Carolina, September 23, 1770, married June 23, 1793, Nancy Ann Bennett,
daughter of Peter Bennett, a revolutionary soldier.

!From I think (Tennesse Genealogical Magazine AnSearchin News). Nancy Ann
B17Oct1774 VA; died 24June1855 Knoz Co. TN; married 7Jan 1793 Person Co, N.C.
Richard Bearden BSept 23, 1770 Granville Co. N.C. died 16 June 1845 Knox Co.
TN. children: Mary Eliza md 1819 Dr. Washington John DeWitt he died 1852 Little
Rock, AR. John married Caroline O'Dell 14 Sept 1829 Knox Co. Tenn; Richard
married Catherine Scott 16 Jan 1832 Knox Co. TN.

!From (Early East Tennessee Tax Payers) Richard Bearden 1771-June 16, 1845 a
native of Granille Co., N.C.; removed to Tennessee in 1802; a methodist; kept a
tavern in Knoxville located on the site of the present Andrew Johnston Hotel.
Knoxville Register 18 June 1845.






It would appear that:
Richard Bearden B1770
married Nancy Ann Bennet
Children:

Elizebeth P. Bearden m ?
Sarah L. "Sallie Bearden m Thomas Jefferson Campbell
Marquis DeLaFayette Bearden m Eliza Amy Cocke
Evelyn Bearden m Gordon L. Cox
Mary Elizabeth "Polly" Bearden m Washington John DeWitt
John Pomfret Bearden m Carolina O.R. W. B. Odell
Richard Bearden m Catherine Scott

I think that Seth Lea m to a Bearden was in another line but if she belongs to this line then some of the others that he is also bondsman for would probally belong to this line and this creates problems being some of this is DAR recorded which could mean its wrong. So its possible that the Lea family was related to the Bennett family which explains some of his bondsman participation?

Thank You,
Randy
