Thank you Polly for your helpful info. Does sound as if the dates may be a
little off but then who knows. My Armstrongs came to Lincoln CO., between 1800
and 1820. There were people in the area when the NC land grant office was
opened around 1783.

<< Dear Julia,
According to my History of Bedford Co. Tn,.On May 24, 1784 , 9what is now
middle Tn ) the Capitol was in East Tn. In 1808, the Tn. legislature met at
Kingston and formed a new County called Bedford( 2000 miles) The first
courts were held at the home of Mrs. Ann Payne until 1809. Then Lincoln Co.
was original a part of Bedford.
The above information would probably conflict with the birth of Sarah
Armstrong b. abt. 1761 in Shelbyville. Maybe it was in the wilderness. We
plan on celebrating our 200th year of Shelbyville in 2007.
