Descendants of Samuel French
First Generation1. Samuel1 French (#5334) was born before 1750. He married an unknown person before 1764. Samuel French had the following children:
Second Generation4. Benjamin2 French (Samuel1) (#5312) was born in Culpepper County, VA November 28, 1764. Benjamin died March 21, 1847 in Rogersville, Lauderdale County, AL, at 82 years of age. He married twice. He married Sally M. Turner in Caswell County, NC, November 10, 1784. (Sally M. Turner is #5313.) Sally was born in Caswell County, NC 1763. Sally was the daughter of Henry Turner and Nancy Anne Kimbrough. Sally died August 22, 1822 in Limestone County, AL, at 59 years of age. There is a Salley Turner listed as a granddaughter of John Lyon in his will dated April 23, 1784 in Caswell County, NC. (Is this our Sally?) He married Catharine Shoemaker in Lauderdale County, AL, November 10, 1822. (Catharine Shoemaker is #5383.) Catharine was born 1777. Catharine died January 22, 1858 in Limestone County, AL, at 80 years of age. Catherine French age 73 is living in the household of William and Isabella Shoemaker in the 1850 Limestone County, AL Census [P32]. The following was taken from "The French Family: A Personal History" by Irvin Himmel, pages 1-6: "My maternal great-great-great-grandfather bearing the name French was born Nov. 28, 1764. He lived in Virginia, probably Culpepper County. At the age of fifteen he enlisted in the army and participated in the Revolutionary War. He enlisted between the middle and 19th of Sept., 1780, being mustered in service under Captain Valentine Harrison, and was in Col. John Green's Virginia continental regiment. Col. Green was a native of Culpepper County, born about 1730, and entered the Continental Army as a Captain on Jan. 20, 1776. He was promoted to Colonel, Jan. 26, 1778. (Horace Edwin Hayden, Virginia Genealogies, Baltimore: Genealogical Pub. Co., 1966, p. 548.) Private Benjamin French took part in four major battles and a number of skirmishes. When applying for government assistance as a veteran of the Revolution, he listed the following as the battles in which he took part: (1) the battle of Guilford; (2) the battle of Camden; (3) the siege of Ninety-Six; and (4) the battle of Eutaw Springs. (Photocopies of was record supplied by General Services Administration, National Archives and Records Service.) It was on Dec. 2, 1780, that Maj. Gen. Nathanael Greene took command of the Southern Department at charlotte, North Carolina. The Southern Army had about 1600 men at that time. On Dec. 19, Gen. Greene moved 1000 of his men southward to threaten the British under Cornwallis at Winnsboro, South Carolina. The next day Brig. Gen. Daniel Morgan took the remaining 600 men from Charlotte for western South Carolina. Both divisions soon received reinforcements. In mid-Jan., 1781, Col. John Green of Virginia brought 400 militia to join Gen. Nathanael Greene's division. The dividing of the Southern Army forced Cornwallis to split his army. Lt. Col. Tarleton took one division and fought Morgan's men at Cowpens, South Carolina, on Jan. 17. Tarleton was soundly defeated, with nine-tenths of his men killed or captured. Morgan moved his men eastward to join Greene. The two divisions of the Southern Army met at the Catawba River on Jan. 30, 1781. Greene decided to retreat northward to escape Cornwallis. He moved his men through Guilford, North Carolina, and into Virginia with Cornwallis in hot pursuit. The Southern Army crossed the Dan River on Feb 14. Cornwallis was forced to give up the chase, returning southward to Hillsboro, North Carolina. In a few days Greene moved his army in the direction of Hillsboro, having received reinforcements from Virginia. On Mar. 15, 1781, at Guilford Court House, west of Hillsboro, the British and Americans faced each other. This was the first of the major battles in which Private Benjamin French participated. Col. John green's regiment of Virginia Continentals was placed in the third line but held out of the fighting in case retreat was necessary. Although the British suffered heavy losses, Gen. Greene deemed it wise to retreat. Col. John Green's regiment took on the British while the remainder of the Americans withdrew. "Under heavy fire Green's regiment stood firm until all the rest of the Americans had left the field; then it too retired." (Christopher Ward, The War of the Revolution, New York: MacMillan Co., 1952, Vol. 2, p. 792.) Cornwallis was in no position to pursue Greene after Guilford. The British moved southward to Wilmington. Greene decided to concentrate on South Carolina where Lt. Col. Rawdon commanded the British forces. The two armies fought at Hobkirk's Hill on the outskirts of Camden, Apr. 25. This is doubtless the "battle of Camden" to which Benjamin French referred. On the same day of this encounter Cornwallis left Wilmington to march to Virginia. Rawdon evacuated Camden on May 10. Ninety-Six was the name of a village surrounded by a stockade and under British control. Lt. Col. Cruger commanded this strongly fortified post. Greene brought his army and put the fort under siege from May 22 to June 19, 1781. The Americans were busy building approaches. Word came on June 11 that Rawdon was coming from Charleston to aid Cruger. Greene tried to storm the fort before Rawdon's arrival. There was bitter and bloody conflict but the Americans were forced to withdraw on the 20th. This was the siege of Ninety-Six to which Benjamin French referred. In July and Aug., Greene's army spent several weeks resting in the High Hills of Santee in South Carolina. He now had about 2000 men. Lt. Col. Stuart had succeeded Rawdon as head of the British forces in the Carolinas, having about the same number of men as Greene. The American forces marched to Eutaw Springs where the British were encamped. A battle ensued which turned out to be the last major battle of the Revolutionary War in the South. The date was Sept. 8, 1781. Both sides suffered heavy casualties and both sides claimed victory. This was the last major battle in which Benjamin French fought. On Oct. 19, 1781, Cornwallis surrendered his army at Yorktown. Peace was still more than a year away, and troops in the South underwent many hardships. Benjamin French was discharged Jan. 22, 1782, having served slightly more than sixteen months. He was seventeen years of age when discharged at Salisbury, North Carolina. His pension records give his term of service as eighteen months. His pension enrollment began Oct. 17, 1818, and was for $96.00 per annum. After the Revolutionary War, Benjamin French married in North Carolina. The North Carolina State Census for 1786 lists a Benjamin French and a Samuel French as heads of households in Caswell County. Both families resided in the Gloucester District in the southeast part of the county. It appears that Benjamin and his family left North Carolina before the federal census of 1790. By 1800 he is listed in Barren County, Kentucky. (The "Second Census" of Kentucky 1800, Baltimore: Genealogical Pub. Co., 1970.) Later he moved to the neighboring county of Warren. The area known as Kentucky was a part of Virginia until its admission to the Union on Jun. 1, 1792. Settlers from the east had moved into Kentucky through the Cumberland Gap in the 1770s and 1780s. The pace accelerated in the 1790s. Warren County, Kentucky, was created out of Logan County, Dec. 19, 1796. Bowling Green was established as the county seat. It was from Warren County that Benjamin French, with his large family, removed to what afterward became know as Limestone County, Alabama. The area was then a part of Mississippi territory. According to records in the Department of Archives and History at Raleigh, North Carolina, the power of attorney for Benjamin French of Madison County, Mississippi Territory, was given to James Kimbrow of Giles County, Tennessee, to recover all sums of money due him, as of Sept. 5, 1814, and was registered in Caswell County, North Carolina, July Court, 1817. This establishes that the Benjamin French who was in Caswell County, North Carolina, in 1786, was the same Benjamin French who came to north Alabama when it was still Mississippi Territory. According to Capt. R. A. McClellan's "Early History of Limestone County" (Reprinted from the Athens Post of June, 1881), Benjamin French and his family settled on Limestone Creek, nine miles east of Athens, in 1808. (p. 13) That was eleven years before Alabama became a state, and it was ten years before Athens was incorporated as a town. Limestone was Chickasaw country in those days. White settlers who came into the area west of Madison County were intruders. The federal government again and again sent soldiers to remove the settlers. When forced out, the settlers would temporarily remove to Madison County or to nearby Tennessee. The issue of intruders on Chickasaw lands reached a boiling point in 1810. The War Department sent notice in July that all white settlers were to be removed by Dec. 15. The white inhabitants of what later became Limestone County petitioned President James Madison and the Congress of the United States. The petition, dated Sept. 5, 1810, was signed by more than 400 settlers, including Benjamin French and his son Amos. (Robert Henry Walker Jr., History of Limestone County Alabama, Limestone County commission, 1973, pp. 17-22, 177-181) Neither Indians nor soldiers were successful in removing Limestone's first white inhabitants. The Chickasaws ceded their lands in the Limestone area to the federal government in 1816. Congress established out of the Mississippi Territory on March 1, 1817, the Territory of Alabama. On Feb. 6, 1818, Limestone County was designated a political subdivision of the Territory of Alabama. In Dec. of 1819, Alabama became a part of the Union. Cotton Port was an early landing on the Tennessee River just south of the town of Mooresville near Piney Creek. "In 1808, Benjamin French established his pioneer home on Limestone Creek, but soon removed to the site of the future Cotton Port. A short while later the first cotton was shipped from Limestone County to New Orleans, and cotton Port became an important landing." (W. Stuart Harris, Dead Towns of Alabama, University of Alabama Press, 1985, p. 74) Official records show that Benjamin French appeared before the County Court of Madison County, District of Alabama, Nov. 27, 1820, to apply for government benefits according to the Act of Congress of Mar. 18, 1818, for Revolutionary War service. A resident of Limestone county, he listed his property as follows: one mare and colt, twenty hogs, nine head of cattle, and one-half quarter section of land at $6.54 per acre on which the first installment only had been paid to the general government. Living with him at that time were his wife (about 54 years old) and three daughters: Anne (about fifteen), Frances (about fourteen), and Jinney (about twelve). The older children had already left home. It appears that this wife died between Nov. 27, 1820, and Sept. 23, 1823. On the latter date a marriage license was issued in Limestone County to Benjamin French and Catharine Shumaker [Shoemaker]. The marriage was solemnized by Albert Higgins, Justice of the Peace. Benjamin was about fifty-eight at the time of this marriage. Four years later, on Sept. 7, 1827, he applied to Limestone County Court of Record to have his pension restored. It had been discontinued sometime earlier. He listed his property as follows: one horse (worth $15) and two cows (worth $14). He gave his occupation as a planter, explaining that he was too old and superannuated to follow it. He gave his wife's age as about fifty-seven years, and stated that a youth (about twelve years old), the son of his second wife was living at home. This son would have been about age eight when Benjamin married Catharine. It appears that this was in fact a stepson, and that all of Benjamin's children were by his first wife. He explained that since his earlier listing of his property for pension purposes (1820), he had sold his eighty acres of land to Jesse French in 1823, and had given over two cows, one horse, and $60 in cash to pay a dept due to Jesse French. (Jesse was one of his sons.) The pension was restored in Jan. 1830. After living on Limestone Creek and at Cotton Port, Benjamin French settled just west of Dr. Blair's plantation on Elk River. One historian compares him to Daniel Boone, "for one gets the feeling that he didn't like 'crowded' areas." It was around 1830 that he moved "over Elk" and built the log house shown at right. It was a single-pen cabin with a shed room to the rear. A later addition was attached to on side of the cabin. The house was destroyed by fire in the late 1970s. (Chris Edwards and Faye Axford, The Lure and Lore of Limestone County, Tuscaloosa: Portals Press, 1978, p. 149.) Benjamin and Catharine French moved to Lauderdale County about ten years before his death. He died Mar. 21, 1847, being eighty-two years of age. Limestone County records show that Catharine appeared before Robert W. Figg, Justice of the Peace, Apr. 29, 1847, to have it recorded that Amos French was given power of attorney for her to receive pension due to Benjamin from the government, with the payment terminating on the day of his death. In June, 1855, she applied for a widow's pension according to the Act of Congress of Feb. 3, 1853. She received $96 per year. She also was granted 160 acres under Act of Mar. 3, 1855, for the services of her husband. The following is recorded in 'Revolutionary Soldiers in Alabama,' 1911, from the State of Alabama, Department of Archives and History: "French, Benjamin. 'Died -- Near Rodgersville on the 21st inst., Mr. Benjamin French, age 84 years, an old faithful Revolutionary soldier.' -- Southern Advocate, Huntsville, April 2, 1847." It should be noted that his age at the time of his death was eighty-two, not eighty-four as indicated in this account. Capt. McClellan erroneously puts the date of Benjamin French's death as 1840. He also incorrectly gives his age as over ninety at the time of his death. A declaration and affidavit filed in Limestone County on Jun. 6, 1855, by Catharine French contains a number of inaccuracies, due to her advanced age and reliance on memory. A record similar to that quoted above is preserved in 'The Alabama Historical Quarterly,' Winter Issue, 1944, State Department of Archives and History: "French, Benjamin -- Satisfactory evidence was this day exhibited to this Court that Benjamin French was a Revolutionary pensioner of the United States at the rate of eight dollars per month; was a resident of the County of Lauderdale in said State of Alabama and died in said County of Lauderdale and State aforesaid on the twenty-first day of March in the year one thousand eight hundred and forty-seven and that he left a widow whose name is Catherine French; whereupon the same is ordered by the Court to be entered of records which is done. -- 'Minutes of Orphans Courts,' Feb. 1847 - May 1850, p. 18. Recorded at Athens, Limestone County, Ala." The will of Benjamin French was filed in Lauderdale County and witnessed by Samuel Lentz, Bennett Rose, and Zacariah Tuten. The will directs that his landed estate of his home plantation be equally divided among his own eleven children, and that Yancy Shoemaker receive an equal share with his own heirs. It is probable that Yancy Shoemaker was his stepson. The only one of his own children who was specifically named in the will was his daughter Ann French. Caswell County, North Carolina, marriage records list Benjamin French as marrying Sally Turner, Nov. 10, 1784. James Turner was a witness. Henry Turner had moved with his family from Culpepper county, Virginia, to Caswell County, North Carolina, about 1775. He had twelve children, including a daughter named Sally and a son named James. The date of the marriage is about a year and a half after the birth of Benjamin's son Amos. It is possible that one of the dates is wrong. Discrepancies in dates of birth and ages are rather common in the 1700s and 1800s. Benjamin French had five sons and six daughers. Incomplete information makes it impossible to know the exact sequence of their births. Some were born in North Carolina and some in Kentucky...." ************************************************************************** The following informtion is from Eunice Pace: "Benjamin is buried behind a barn in the area of Lexington, AL and the grave was marked by the DAR, however, I have reliable information that says the grave is NOT where the marker is displayed, but is nearby........behind the old barn." An interesting note found in the AL State Archives in Montgomery states that Benjamin "made the best peach brandy in the community". Most of Benjamin's sons fought in the War of 1812, the Battle of New Orleans in 1815 under "Old Hickory", and in the Mexican War in the 1830's. The following information was taken from "Valley Leaves Lauderdale County, June 1982", pages 168-169: Will of Benjamin French 15 December 1839 "Weak in body" To my beloved wife, Katharine French, for her lifetime. At her death to dispose of all my estate, livestock, household and kitchen furniture among her own children or as she is otherwise disposed to do. At her death, my landed estate of my home plantation, to be divided equally "among my own children, lawful heirs, eleven in number, and for Yancy Shoemaker to have an equal portion with my own lawful heirs". "The 80 Acres of land which I entered (I think in the 25th Section) for which Yancy Shoemaker hold my bond for one forty Acres of said entry the other 40 Acres of said entry, I give and bequeath to my beloved daughter Ann French" and her heirs. Witnesses: Samuel Lentz, Bennett Rose, Zacariah Tooten. Proven by Samuel Lentz and Bennett Rose before Wm. B. Wood, Judge, 21 Nov 1848. Recorded: 22 May 1850. ************************************************************************** Benjamin French of Lauderdale County, AL purchased 79.51 acres of land in Section 39 of T2-R7W on August 1, 1839. Benjamin French and Sally M. Turner had the following children:
5. Lucy2 French (Samuel1) (#5337) was born in VA abt. 1768. Lucy died October 9, 1852 in Needham Twp., Johnson County, IN, at 84 years of age. Her body was interred in 2nd Mt. Pleasant, Johnson County, IN. She married John Tetrick in KY?, abt. 1790. (John Tetrick is #5366.) John was born in VA abt. 1765. John died abt. 1812 in KY?. Lucy French and John Tetrick had the following children:
Third Generation6. Amos J.3 French (Benjamin2, Samuel1) (#5340) was born in NC April 1783. Amos died July 4, 1869 in Limestone County, AL, at 86 years of age. He married twice. He married Elizabeth Sanderson. (Elizabeth Sanderson is #5372.) Elizabeth was born 1787. He married Elizabeth S. Mitchell in Limestone County, AL, September 9, 1841. (Elizabeth S. Mitchell is #5367.) Elizabeth was born in NC 1809. Elizabeth died after 1850 in Limestone County, AL. Conflicting evidence states that Amos was born in NC, March 1787. The following was taken from "The French Family: A Personal History" by Irvin Himmel: "The Athens Post, Athens, Alabama, July 9, 1869 lists Amos as being born in North Carolina in the spring of 1783. The 1850 census listed him as born in Virginia. This error misled our earlier research to suppose that Benjamin French began his family in Virginia. The 1860 census listed Amos French as born in North Carolina, and his death notice in the Athens Post agrees. Amos married a Miss Sanderson in Kentucky in 1807 and lived briefly in Nashville, Tennessee, before settling in Limestone County, Alabama in 1808. He resided in Madison County in 1816. He was a member of the Christian Church. Amos French was in the War of 1812 and in the battle of New Orleans. Capt. McCellan states in his 'Early History of Limestone County': "Just before the battle of New Orleans, Gen. Jackson knocked a cup of coffee out of 'Uncle' Amos' hand, and the act was never forgiven. Years afterward all this family were ardent Whigs, great admirers of Henry Clay and believed to the last that "Old Hickory' was a tyrant." On one occasion when he was a squatter in Limestone, the Indians tried to run Amos out by burning his cabins. McClellan says: "In about 1810 one of the Indians, who had shared his hospitality, came to him in a 'little new ground' in which he was at work, and in bad English, made him understand that evil was impending and he left as quickly as he could. Before he had gotten out of sight, however, he saw the smoke arising from his cabins on fire. In a short while he returned, and re-established himself..." Following the death of his first wife, Amos married Elizabeth Mitchell in 1841. She was a widow with several children. One of her daughters married Amos B. French (a son of Amos). A keeper of the Poor House in Limestone County in 1860, death came to Amos French on July 4, 1869, at age 86." Amos French of Limestone County, AL purchased 80.54 acres of land in Section 23 of T3-R4W on April 2, 1857 in Limestone County, AL. (Is this Amos Sr. or Jr.?) The following was taken from Eunice Pace: "He had his will drawn up the 29th day of September, 1868. It was probated the 30th day of August, 1869." The following was taken from "Valley Leaves, Limestone County, Dec. 1981" 1981-1982 VOL. 16. 4 July 1869: Amos French, born in spring of 1788, N.C. Moved to Nashville and stayed until 1808.

7. Jesse3 French (Benjamin2, Samuel1) (#5301) was born in NC May 16, 1787. Jesse died February 3, 1857 in Jackson County, AL, at 69 years of age. He married Mary Smith January 24, 1808. (Mary Smith is #5302.) Mary was born in VA January 14, 1788. Mary died November 19, 1863 in AL, at 75 years of age. The following was taken from "The French Family: A Personal History" by Irvin Himmel: "My great-great-grandfather of the French family was born May 16, 1787, in North Carolina, when his father Benjamin was about twenty-two years of age. Jesse French married Mary Smith on Jan. 24, 1808, which was the year the family moved to the area later known as Limestone County, Alabama. Mary was born Jan. 14, 1788, in Virginia. In his own handwriting Jesse recorded the date of their marriage as the first entry in a family record. This part of the record is produced above. Basic data on the families of Jesse French and his son Jeremiah L. French are taken from this family record written in longhand on both sides of two sheets which likely came from an old Bible. This record was preserved by my grandmother Nancy French Melton, passed on to my mother, and recently came into my possession. I know of no other source which provides the names and birthdates of Jesse French's children. Like his brothers, Jeremiah and Samuel, Jesse "rejoiced in the possession of gigantic strength and size," according to Capt. McClellan. In keeping with the spirit of those pioneer days, these French boys "were often the heroes of 'fist and skull' encounters." (Early History of Limestone County, p. 14) In 1816, Jesse French was living in Madison County, Mississippi Territory. The first U. S. Government census after Alabama became a state was in 1820, but for the original states that was the fourth such census. the 1820 census lists Jesse French as living in Limestone County. By about 1830 he had acquired land and established residence in Jackson County. There he spent the remainder of his years. Jackson County forms the northeastern corner of Alabama, and it is bounded on the north by Tennessee, on the east by Georgia, and on the west by Madison County. The Tennessee River flows through the county. The southern tip of the Sequatichie Valley extends into the county from the northeast. The Cherokee Indians migrated to the Jackson County area, left, then returned in the 1770's. In 1819, the federal government began taking measures to insure the safety of white settlers entering the area. On Dec. 29, 1835, all Cherokee lands in northern Alabama were ceded to the United States, then the Indians were removed to Western reservations, mainly in Oklahoma. by 1838 most of the Indians has been removed. The Cherokees had become quite literate as a result of the alphabet which the half-breed Sequoyah had invented and presented to them at North Sauta Creek in 1820. Alabama was officially admitted as a state on Dec. 14, 1819. Jackson County was created at that time. The temporary seat of justice was Old Sauta, a former Cherokee Indian Village which had attracted many white settlers. It remained the county seat for two years. On Dec. 13, 1821, Bellefonte became the county seat, and it was the first incorporated town in the county. Located on the Tennessee River, the town flourished until the building of the Memphis-Charleston Railroad in 1855. The courthouse at Bellefonte was burned during the closing days of the Civil War. On Nov. 13, 1868, the seat of justice was established at Scottsboro. A new courthouse was built in 1870 but it burned in 1879. It was rebuilt and used until 1913 when replaced by a completely new structure. W. Jerry Gist states in 'The Story of Scottsboro, Alabama,' privately published, 1968, p. 29: "Very little is known of the early history of Sauta and only a few fragments remain to remind us of its former existence. The small town was located near Sauta Creek some distance from its mouth. McCutheon's School stood at one time on the site of the old courthouse and nearby is a saltpetre cave from which the early settlers obtained much of their salt supply." When the 1850 census was taken, Jesse French was listed as a farmer, born in North Carolina. His wife Mary was listed as born in Virginia. Four children, all born in Alabama, were then living at home: Jerry, age 22; Henry, age 20; Isabell, age 18; and Jessee, age 16. These are the last four of Jesse French's children named in the family record. The Memphis and Charleston Railroad Company must have seemd an attractive investment to people in Northern Alabama. The 'M. & C. R. R. Co. Annual Report for 1856-1857' lists its stockholders in the Eastern Division. Among them, two names are of special interest. Jesse French of Jackson County had 8 shares, and Amos French of Limestone County had 4 shares. Jesse French died in Jackson County, Feb. 3, 1857, being a little short of three-score and ten years. His widow, Mary Smith French, died Nov. 19, 1863, having attained more than seventy-five years. The following were the fifteen children born to Jesse and Mary French over a span of twenty-six year.." *************************************************************************** 1802 List of Taxable Property: Madison County, MS Territory - Jessee French Jesse French of Jackson County, AL purchased 80.72 acres of land in Section 31 of T4-R5E on August 1, 1831 and 50 acres of land in Section 8 of T5-R5E on November 7, 1835. 1861, December 7 -- Jackson County, AL: Jere.

The following was taken from "The French Family: A Personal History" by Irvin Himmel: "... Two of Jesse French's older sons left home in about 1849 or 1850 for the California gold fields. A letter dated Aug. 7, 1941, from Samuel J. French of Shreveport, Louisiana, to W. Jess French of Decatur, Alabama, states that those two brothers were never heard from again. A different version of the story was related by Thomas W. French, Sr., of Tafe, Texas, in a letter dated July 28, 1958, to W. Jess French. The two brothers got to the Rocky Mountains in the late fall, and because of cold and snow turned back and steeled near Austin, Texas. Their names were "Ben" and "Zeb." No "Zeb" is listed in the old family record, but that could have been a nickname. A will probated in Jackson County, Alabama, June 21, 1868, states that Benjamin French and the children of James M. French resided in the state of Texas, county unknown."

The following was taken from "The French Family: A Personal History" by Irvin Himmel: My great-grandfather in the French line was the twelfth child of Jesse French. Born Jan. 29. 1827, in Alabama, his name was Jeremiah L. French, but there are indications that he often used his initials, and he was commonly known as "Jerry" [sometimes spelled "Jerre"] Jeremiah L. French did not marry until he was thirty-three years of age. Three years after the death of his father the marriage took place on Feb. 15, 1860, in Jackson County, Alabama. The marriage was performed by H. H. Hopkins, Justice of the Peace. The bride was Eliza Jerrome Cloud. She was one month short of her eighteenth birthday, having been born Mar. 15, 1842. Her parents were George and Nancy Cloud. George was a wagonwright for a time, then a farmer. He was born in North Carolina and his wife in Virginia. The children of George and Nancy Cloud were Christopher, Mary Ann, George, Rachel, Eliza, Susan, William, and James. The first four of these were born in Tennessee; the last four in Alabama. Following Nancy's death in 1850, George married Elizabeth Jane Vinson in 1860. by the second wife there were three more children: James, Joseph, and Benjamin. George was an elder in the Rocky Springs Church of Christ near Bridgeport. The Cloud family came to Jackson County, Alabama, from Tennessee in about 1841. The census taker visited the home of Jeremiah and Eliza French on June 18, 1860, just four months after their marriage. Four others were listed as part of the household: (1) Henry, age 30, who was Jeremiah's brother; (2) Isabella, age 28, a sister; (3) Mary, age 72, Jeremiah's mother; and (4) Ann, age 53, born in Kentucky, who was possibly Jeremiah's aunt, one of the daughters of Benjamin French. The census report listed the French family as residing in the area of Jackson County served by the post office at Paint Rock. In the years following the forced migration of the Cherokees to lands west of the Mississippi, Jeremiah L. French acquired about six hundred acres of what had been called the "Arthur Burns Reservation." (The Decatur Daily, Decatur, Alabama, Aug. 9, 1964, Sec. B, p. 11) A saltpeter cave was located on this land. Known as Sauta Cave, the Alabamians must have pronounced it "Sorty," judging from some of the spellings I have come across in references to it. "Sauty" is another variant of the name. It is often referred to as Saltpeter Cave. (Alabama, A Guide to the Deep South, New Revised Edition, Alyce Billings Walker, Editor, New York: Hastings House, 1975, p. 287) A history of Jeremiah L. French would not be complete without a history of Sauta Cave. What appears as large holes in the side of Gunter's Mountain in the southern part of Jackson County are two entrances to Sauta Cave. In "Jerry" French's day the location was about eight miles from Scottsboro and five miles from Larkinsville. Expanding city limits of Scottsboro and changes in roads put the location just south of Highway 72 and fairly close to the present western city limits. The cave was doubtless used for shelter by the Indians long before the arrival of the white man. Old records found in the courthouse of Madison County in 1935 establish that is was used for mining saltpeter for the War of 1812, and there are other indications that it was used as a source for saltpeter even earlier. A Scottsboro newspaper, The Sentinel-Age, carried a two-part story by Tom Walls in the issues of May 23 and May 27, 1965, giving many details of the history of Sauta Cave. The land around the cave was bought by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 1979, and Blowing Wind Cave became its new name. When Alabama became the twenty-second state in the Union, "Sauta Cave was made the first and temporary seat of justice by the legislature in 1819." (W. Brewer, Alabama: Her History, Resources, 'War Record, and Public Me, Tuscaloosa: Willo Pub. Co., 1964 reprint, p. 283.) The village of Sauta later gave way to Bellefonte as the county seat. When Sequoyah, the half-breed Cherokee Indian leader was ready to present his Cherokee alphabet to the Indians, the chiefs met at Sauta Cave. One of the earliest roads in North Alabama, known as the stage road, extended from Huntsville to Bellefonte via Sauta, and that was as early as 1819. A road from Gunter's Landing to Bellefonte passed through Sauta. In 1820, the first mail route for Jackson County went through Sauta on its way from Huntsville to Chattanooga. During the earlier months of the Civil War, Sauta Cave was a valuable source of saltpeter for the making of gunpowder for the Confederates. When the war stated in 1861, "Jerry" French owned the mine, and John B. Boran operated it. French sold the mine to Carlisle and Henderson, by they operated it only a short time until it was taken over by the Confederate Government. During the Civil War tow of my great-grandfathers worked in the mining operations at Sauta Cave. "Jerry" French was one of them, and George Thomas Melton was the other. The latter ruined his health in this underground work and died at the age of thirty-seven in 1867. W. T. Bennett of Gurley was a lad of fourteen when he worked in the mine. Historians have recorded what he related from memory long afterward. "Bennett, along with Deaborn Kell of New Hope and 15 others were sent to Selma to bring back kettles to the mine to boil the niter. They hauled seventeen of the large kettles back, using mules to draw the wagons. All of these pots but one were round and were eight feet in diameter. The odd one was oblong and about five feet wide. "To get the dirt out of the cave, a track of sweet gum poles was laid back to a quarter of a mile into the opening of the cave on short ties placed every five feet. Three or four cars were employed there at one time, through the use of sidetracks at two or three points in the mine. Two mules were used to move the cars. 'When the dirt reached the opening of the cave it was dumped into large hoppers. There it was leached or 'dripped'. This was a method of washing out all of the unwanted refuse by running water through it. The water came from a spring a quarter of a mile from the cave, near the top of Gunter's Mountain. "The niter or 'beer' as it was called, was then mixed with ashes, leached again in larger poplar troughs, after which it was boiled in the huge kettles. "The finished product, saltpeter, was boxed up and sent to the railway station five miles away at Larkinsville. It was shipped from there to Rome, Ga., where it was used in the making of gunpowder." When the Confederate Government took over the mine, Capt. James Young of Larkinsville was sent to guard the operation. His company included James Alex Gray, John Jackson, William S. Thomas, Coleman Hodges, John T. Hodges, George Burroughs, Jonathan Lindsay, J. A. Woosley, William L. Page, Robert Page, Lacy Houk, Ed Acklin, J. M. Peters, Ira Poke Brown, William Brown, Moses Seaborn, and W. W. Keel. Long afterward Kell remarked: "We had hot times during those early days, but it wasn't because of the Yankee guns. We had a number of huge kettles in which we boiled the dirt from the cave. One thousand pounds daily was our output. So you can imagine what sort of job it was to stand around those immense pots, and stir and fire all day long." But the Yankee soldiers made the scene even hotter. In April, 1862, Union forces discovered the concealed mine and attacked. The Confederate guards were driven across the Tennessee River. (John Robert Kennamer, History of Jackson County, Winchester, Tenn.: Southern Printing and Pub. Co., 1935, p. 49.) The Yankees ripped apart most of the track, destroyed the kettles, and dismantled the mining operations. Gen. O. M. Mitchell commanded the Union forces that put an end to the mining of saltpeter at Sauta Cave. During the Civil War years a half a dozen houses stood near the mine. One of them was the home of Jeremiah L. French. Constructed of heavy logs, the French house was still standing well beyond a century later. Tom Walls' article in The Sentinel-Age, May 27, 1965, states that the house was 156 years old in that year. If this is correct, the house dates back to 1809. According to John Knox's article in The Decatur Daily, Aug. 9, 1964, W. Jess French, a grandson of "Jerry" French, thought the house was built by his grandfather. If that be the case, it could not have been 156 years old in 1965. I do not know the age of the house, but am convinced that it was "Jerry French's old home. Ella Kennamer of Woodville [a niece of David D. and Nancy French Melton], took me to the old log house in 1965 and told me it was where "Jerry" French lived. Ella was born in 1882, spending her entire life in Jackson County. The above pictures of the old French home show how it looked in 1965. I was privileged to see the inside of the house in Oct. 1987. A forest ranger employed by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service now resides there. He expressed the opinion that the logs are probably American Chestnut. Jeremiah L. French was a member of the Church of Christ. Madison Love and Washington Bacon were among the early preachers in Jackson County. In the fall of 1861, a report was sent to a religious journal in Tennessee about "The Sequachee and Georgia Co-operation." (Gospel Advocate, Nashville, Oct. 1861, pp. 305, 306.) Prior to the Civil War cooperation meetings among Churches of Christ were common. However, since it was later realized that these "cooperations" helped pave the way for the formation of the national missionary organization called the American Christian Missionary Society, and that Northern-dominated organizations was widely opposed as unscriptural in the South, one rarely hears of cooperation meetings in the South following the war years. Here is the report published in 1861 which mentions J. L. French and a congregation at Sauta: "Assembled at Union Meeting House, Dade County, Georgia, on Saturday, 14th day of September, 1861. The delegated from the different congregations were then called for. The following brethren reported themselves as delegates from… Sauta: J. L. French. ..." The foregoing report discloses that a congregation was established at Sauta in either 1860 or 1861. The little church had 17 members. Jeremiah L. French represented them at the cooperation meeting. In the summer of 1867, Washington Bacon sent a brief report to the same Tennessee journal. (Gospel Advocate, Aug. 29, 1867, p. 700) It was addressed to the periodical's editors, Tolbert Fanning and David Lipscomb, and mentions the Sauta church. It is interesting that Sauta Cave appears in this news item as "Sorta Cave." "Threnton, GA., Aug. 19, 1867 "Bros. Fanning & Lipscomb: I left home on Friday before the first Lord's day, inst., for Rocky Springs, Jackson County, Ala., preached for the brethren on Saturday and Lord's day, and set in order the things that were wanting, and closed with one addition; left to go to Sorta Cave, in the same county, arrived there on Thursday, preached to a few of the brethren at night, continued the meeting until Monday, set the congregation in order, and closed with eight additions, two from the Methodist, one from the Baptist and five from the world... In hope of eternal life, Washington Bacon" Another report from Washington Bacon contains a stinging rebuke which illustrates how plain spoken folks were in those days. (Gospel Advocate, Aug. 6, 1868, p. 765-766) The reprimand was directed to James Daniel at Sauta. "Scottsboro, Ala., July 13, 1868 "… I commenced my year's labor at Rocky Spring, Jackson County, Ala., the first Lord's day in March; but the high waters in the months of April and May prevented me from visiting all the congregations that I visit this year. With the exception of two of the congregations, they are alive to the cause of their Lord and Master. They meet every Lord's Day to break the loaf and conduct their Sunday-schools, the Bible being the text-book in them all. In the congregation at this place, we have a brother of great promise, who is just beginning to speak to the brethren and neighbors who attend our meetings. I would like to take the opportunity to say to the brethren at Scottsboro, to encourage and hold up the hands of Bro. Virgil Wood; for, in my judgment, he is worthy of all acceptation. And I would also say to the brethren at Sorta Cave, with reference to Bro. James Daniel, and for his encouragement also, to persevere in the cause he has espoused, in speaking to his neighbors upon the subject of salvation … But, alas! Bro. Daniel is this morning in the city of Montgomery, working for Caesar, helping make laws for his kingdom. Bro. Daniel, let me say to you in all kindness, my brother, your Lord and Master has told you that you cannot serve two masters. Bro. Daniel, don't do so any more... Washington Bacon" According to the stories which my grandmother used to tell, Jeremiah L. French at one time was an elder in a rural congregation. Whether this was Sauta or some other church at a later period, I do not know. She stated that on one occasion he came home from a church meeting when there was a fire going in the fireplace. He took the church records which he had in his possession and threw them into the fire. It seems that the congregation was in turmoil and he was thoroughly disgusted. It has been said that there is no fuss like church fuss. If burning the records would stop the wrangling, perhaps "Jerry" French had the right idea! Some of his sons, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren have been active in Churches of Christ, and there is no way of measuring his influence as a Christian." ... Eliza Cloud French died Aug. 22, 1866. According to my grandmother who was only three years of age when Eliza died, her mother had been ill and went down to the spring to wash clothes. She put her feet in the cool water. Pneumonia resulted and she never recovered. She was only twenty-four years of age. It was said that she was a very beautiful woman. Left with four small children, the oldest not yet six years of age, "Jerry" remarried within four months. His second wife was Martha Jenning ... She was a widow. ******************************************************************** 1857, August 29 -- Jackson County, AL: Abraham Gross & wife, Rebecca Gross, Luther Gideon & wife, Martha J.

(Source: Marriage Records Marshall County, AL 1857-1869, page 203 -- LDS Film# 1035275) (***NOTE: There is some conflict on who the Thomas Gross listed on the marriage record refers to. Some believe that it refers to (Thomas?) Andrew Gross, son of George Gross and Lucinda Anderson. His sisters, Eva and Sarah Gross, married Elmira Ridgeway's brothers, James S. and David C. Ridgeway. All evidence seems to point to Thomas J. Gross, though. From census records, we know that Thomas J. Gross did marry a woman named Elmira A. who was born about 1838 in AL. We also know from census records that Elmira A. Ridgeway was born about 1838 in AL. Thomas J. and Elmira A.'s first child was born August 26, 1866 -- almost exactly 9 months after the marriage date for Thomas A. Gross & Elmira A. Ridgeway. If you think about it, "A" and "J" can sound the same. Also, I have not seen Andrew Gross' name listed as "Thomas" Andrew Gross in any records. I've wondered if Thomas A. Gross on the marriage certificate started the idea that his full name is Thomas Andrew.***) (Elmira A. Ridgeway is #245.) Elmira was born in AL 1838. Elmira was the daughter of Elijah B.

Lycourgus Gross of Beaver County, OK purchased 160 acres of land in Section 5 of T1N-R22E on February 10, 1910. The following was written by LaVona (Gross) Harris -- Lycourgus' daughter: "Lycourgus Vernon (Curg) Gross came from Scottsboro, Alabama, to El Reno, Oklahoma where he was employed by the telephone company. From there he came to Beaver County in 1903, and filed four miles south and one mile west of the town of Balko. In 1906 he was married to Minnie May Gregory of Elk City. The Gregorys had moved to Oklahoma from Missouri. Following their marriage, the young couple came to Beaver County to make their home on their claim. The trip to their new home was made by covered wagon. The main highlight of the trip being the fording of the Canadian River. There was a wagon trail across the river, but in places just off the trail there was quicksand. When the river was up at a ??, the trail was very hard to follow. This was the condition of the river when Curg and Minnie started across. About half-way across they passed a wagon that had gone down in the quicksand. Only the tongue of the wagon was sticking up out of the water. The family had been rescued, but the unfortunate party had had to cut the horses loose form the wagon, and all their belongings had gone down. A very frightened young couple, with a prayer in their hearts, made their way on across the river. When they got to their new home, which had been fully described by the young husband, dirt floor and all, Minnie could not believe her eyes! The twelve foot by fourteen foot dugout looked much smaller than her mind had pictured it. She knew they could never get all their belongings inside, but of course they managed. Their life was filled with early day joys and hardships, but in a little while homesickness overcame the young bride. The dugout had one window and by climbing upon a chair she could look out across the lonely prairie. Minnie said she spent quite a bit of time at that window crying, wishing she could see her folks. There was no question as to whether or not she could go see them. The mode of travel was too slow, and there were no funds for trips. As time passed a family was started, friendships developed, and church and other community activities filled their time. Neighbors were very dear. Each helped the other in times of need. Trails across the prairie between homesites were made by visiting neighbors. Taffy pullings were pleasant memories to many. Work on the farm began very early in the morning, in order that all chores would be finished and field work could start as soon as it was light enough to see. They worked as long as they could see in the evening. Curg and Minnie had nine children, eight daughters and one son. Their second daughter, Tessa passed away at the age of two. The other children are these: Dolleta, Davis, Perryton, Texas; Valena Maxwell; Zella Lile; LaVona Harris, Balko, OK; Lorena Johnson, Perryton, Texas; Opal Gray, Borger, Texas; Leroy Gross, Amarillo, TX; and Irene Anderson, Lomita, California. Things went fairly well for the family, and a frame house had replaced the dugout. Then the depression and the dust storms came. The family moved from the homestead in 1936. Mr. Gross departed this life in 1946 and his wife in 1957." Lycourgus Vernon Gross and Minnie May Gregory had the following children:
