I 've searched my database, and it looks like only
James Timothy Cecil's descendents lived in Scott Co.,
TN. I have a few more to add to Melissa submittal:
FIRST GENERATION
1. James Timothy "Tim" CECIL was born on December 5,
1805 [Alternate Date: 14 Dec 1805) in Monticello,
Wayne Co., KY. He died on September 14, 1871 in
Helenwood, Scott Co., TN. He was buried in James
Cecil Cem, Helenwood, Scott Co., TN.
[NOTE from Walt Morrow: There is a mystery associated
with the children of James Tim Cecil and Pharaba Reed
Cecil. I have always been told by the old timers in
Scott County (Letcher C. Sexton, Crawford Cecil,
C.C.Reed, et al) that two of the younger children were
kidnapped by Cherokees and that some number of the
older sons went out to find and rescue them. The story
that I have heard is that none ever returned. This
could be true involving die-hard Cherokees on the
fringes of the Trail of Tears or could be involved in
the Civil War since the Cherokees provided regiments
to both sides north and south. No dates have ever been
given and I have not yet been able to satisfy myself
that I can identify who if any are missing from the
family. Back in 1924 when my cousin (1c3r) Crawford
Cecil was in a veterans hospital in St. Louis
recovering from his military career which began in
1898 there was a man in the bed opposite to him who
seem to watch Crawford closely. Finally on the day
that Crawford was released from the hospital, the man
spoke up saying that it was incredible...that he had
known a man on the Oklahoma Reservation that could
have been Crawford's twin...same mannerisms, voice
inflections, etc. Crawford never saw this veteran
again but the story lingers on. City directories show
that there are plenty of Cecils today in Oklahoma but
I have never gone beyond that in an external search.
