Linda,
Sarah and Lawson Sisk had Bartlett Sisk, Lawson Sisk, Allen Sisk br. 9 Dec.
1833 in Cocke County Tenn. d. 17 Aug. 1914; married Nancy Ann Smart, d/o
Samuel and Mary J.( Nelson) Smart (I am also descended from Samuel and Mary
J.( Nelson) Smart.

I would love to continue with this but I just finished a 13 hour election. I
will get back to you tomorrow.

Looks like we have a lot in common.
