THIS IS FOR LENICE, on an older query re JOHN
GRIER. On your specific John
GRIER, I, too, am descended from him (his wife is still unknown...). Son William = my line, then John
Greer to Frank to my grandfather John
Houser Greer. JOHN
GRIER = documented at
Battle of
Kings Mountain; Rev. pension paper available from the archives (interesting reading!); have much on his descendents. Two years ago saw a web posting mentioning a John
GRIER, in his teens, in the Nolichucky area (fits, as JG = with
Sevier & the Nolichucky Indian Fighters). Said he was indentured to Absolom
Greer. Absolom + a John
Greer (
GRIER) signed petition to form State of Franklin, signatures adjacent.... Happy to supply help you any way I can....
