Don,

Could you do a lookup for me in your Grainger County Cemetery books? I'm
looking for information on any/all of the following people: Andrew
Bowers, b. 6 Nov 1791 NC, d. 21 Nov 1849 Grainger Co., TN; his wife,
Katherine Howeth Bowers, b. 14 Aug 1800, d. 30 Aug 1841 (probably
Grainger Co), they were married 29 Aug 1816 (they were listed as having
children in district 12 in Grainger 1836 Tax List, James Sellers, b.
1759 NC, d. 20 Dec 1843 Grainger Co., George Brock & Amy Dyer Brock,
Cornelius Burton Daugherty & Elizabeth Sevier Daugherty, S. Polk
Daugherty & Sarah Davis (or Elvins).

The 12th district is just south of the Kentucky Road (running east/west
just south of Clinch Mountain) and to the east of Clinch River, or so
I'm told.

Any information you may have would be greatly appreciated. Also, many
Grainger County Families migrated to Southeast MO in the mid 1800s. If
you suspect you have connections in MO, I have Cemetery Book for Dent
County area families and would be happy to do lookups.

Thanks,
Rebecca McGowan
