Notes:

I am still looking for more information on George and Pheby Martin. I have looked at several court and land records of the 1790s in Knox and Hawkins counties. Knox county was established from Hawkins in 1792, so I went back into Hawkins county and did some research and didn't find anything on George so far. I did find an account of the sale of George's estate in 1826, the final amount was $201.79-1/2, exe. was Samuel Martin. (Source: Knox County Estate Book 4, pg 96, FHL mf. no. 851-076). On page 130 was a list of men who were part of the final settlement. Among those listed were James, George, Samuel and John Martin. I was hoping to find a marriage for George and Pheby but no luck. Will keep on looking. Audrey (from GenForum).
