"I don't remember who the author of "The Lost State of Franklin". We have it here in our public Lib. I'll try to remember to call the library tomorrow & get the author & copyright date. Most of these books were published in the 1930-50's. I will try to be brief. Originally what is now Tenn started out as part of Va Colony. When N.C. was formed Va Colony became N.C. Because of it being so isolated, the settlers found it difficult to keep in touch with N.C. and did their own thing. Thats where the "overmountain men" came from.

After the Rev. War. N.C. tried to give this land back to the Fed. Govt, but they didn't want them either so in 1784 the people of Watauga decided to form their own state. It existed for 4 years and in 1788 became a part of Tennessee. It consisted mainly of Washington, Greene, Sullivan & Hawkins I think. These are the old boundary lines not the present. Washington Co, the biggest, was also part of Va. & N.C. so in looking at records, you have to look in those states also.

I have found several different states listed as birth state. KY, TN, VA and NC. William was born in the colonies before Tennesse and Kentucky were made states. North Carolina owned her Western Lands beyond the Great Smoky Mountains. She ceded her rights to her Western Lands in 1790, and in the same year, the United States Congress created the Territory of the US South of the River Ohio, or as it was more commonly know, the Southwest Territory. In 1796, those lands became the State of Tennessee. The influx of settlers started as a trickle. At the end of the Revolutionary War, the spigot opened and more settlers poured in, mostly from southwest Virginia. While North Carolina owned the land, it was the Virginians who first settled in any numbers.

There is no record when William Anderson came to TN. William came to TN with his brother Samuel. In 1814 William recieved a grant for seventy five acres of land, so no doubt he was living here.
William was a farmer and his property or realestate was listed for $1000.00 which at that time was great. All their children were born in Tennessee.
He was born in 1790 and died in 1860.

Note: The first records I have found in TN, was 1830 Sumner Co., TN.
He lived in Davidson Co., TN in 1813 where his first 2 sons were born.
