Hmmm...My GG Grandfather was born in that area near Knoxville around 1824-28. He was in
the 1850 McMinn County, TN census as James Carrol or Carol. He married a Lawson. He
states in Pension records that he was from the Grainger, TN area. His full name is James
A Carroll, married Betsey Jane Lawson (daughter of Richard Lawson and Mary Campbell). They
settled in Bradley County, TN (my home town). He died in 1899. I have not been able to
find any parents or siblings to date. Help would be appreciated!! He spoke of visiting an
uncle near Knoxville in his papers...
