Looking for any clues on: William Early, who received a land grant
in Hickman Co., Tax list 1822. 1823 to 1828 he was in Calloway Co. 1828,
68 ac. on the Tenn. R. 1832 sold land on Tenn R., 68 ac. The land was later
in Marshall Co. He then moved back to Whitley Co. and
most likely died before 1840. He married Pracilla Stenson in 1813, in Knox
Co., Ky. They moved to Tenn.( it is rumored ), then on to the Jackson Pur.
He might have moved there with some of the Wilson's who settled near him.
Looking for a connection between him and the Wilson's. He might have
deserted during the War of 1812 and changed his name to Early from Wilson.
My name is Wilson Early, named after my mother's brother. There was a James
M. Wilson living near him in Calloway Co. If anyone has info. on the
Wilson's, I would love to hear from them. Best regards.
