Hello, would you please clarify the name of the Tennessee county in this passage: “This party, believed to be the first settlers in the county of Limestone, (Since named) consisted of (names listed). They came from Rean County, Tenn., in flats, on the Tennessee River, to the North of Elks River…..” As there is no Rean County but there is a Roane and Rhea County in E TN, curious as to which county you meant. This is an exciting lead as my 4th GGF was in E TN before he appeared in AL Territory. Thank you!
My paternal family lived in this area in early days.
Mine too
