Note Orphy and Levi were probably named for John and Rebecca's neighbors, Levi 52 and Orphy 47 Nave.

Per Delilah Barnard email 8/10/04, "In the 1850 census, John and Rebecca are in Claiborne County, Haynes P.O. In the 1860, they are in Union County, Haynes P.O. Union County was finally created in 1858 from parts of Anderson, Campbell, Claiborne, Grainger, and Knox counties. According to the probate records, John's coffin was made by his son Tandy , and he died in the home of his daughter Louisa (Collinsworth) Davis." Although John was born in 1807 in Claiborne County and died in 1887 in Union County, due to County reformation family migration, if any, is difficult to determine.
-------------------------
Grainger Co, Tennessee was established in 1795 from Hawkins & Knox Cos TN: "That the said counties of Hawkins and Knox be divided by the following lines: In 1798, Grainger expanded in size as the result of Indian Cessions. In 1801, Claiborne County, Tennessee was est. from Grainger & Hawkins Counties, and in 1850 (new) Union Co, Tennessee was est. from Anderson, Campbell, Claiborne, Grainger & Knox Cos. In 1870, Hamblen Co [includes much of Bent Creek] was est. from Grainger & Hawkins Counties.

Per Delilah Benard Email dated August 10, 2004 : “It seems that John, Sr. died at the home of my great- grandmother, Louisa (John's youngest daughter), with whom he had been living. She had been widowed some 10 years by then. The auction was held at her house, and it took more than 3 years for the estate to finally be settled. Nicholas Ailor, the administrator stated in Feb 1891 that he was still holding $31.00 which he had been unable to deliver to Matilda and Jesse Waggoner who he believed were in Indiana, but that he didn't have an address. (I think Jesse and Matilda had moved to Illinois). According to the probate records, John's coffin was made by Tandy (son Tandy H. Collinsworth)”.
