• Notes

  "There are noted discrepancies for the pace of birth and the date of death for Robert. Blount became a county on July 11th, 1795, when Knox and Jefferson counties were split up in order to from it. That is why Robert is listed as being born in Knox or Jefferson County. The Shileds Family Book lists the death date for Robert as January 11th, 1850. Robert was noted as 'A successful, wealthy farmer in Cade's Cove, Blount County, Tennessee'." Kellie Sue Sapp King Sources: Book: "Kin of my Grandchildren, Vol III", Judge Noble K.
