Landon Carter Tadlock

Notes:

Landon was a farmer and spent most of his life in the area of of Washington County where his father lived. Part of his farm bordered on Green County and so he bought and sold property in both Counties.
In 1870 Landon and Sarah were living with son Samuel Kyle Tadlock and his family., Landon was listed as an invalid.
~~~
Landon Carter Tadlock's grandfather., Thomas., his father Lewis and his Uncles' Joshua, John and Thomas., all signed the document to form the state of Franklin., along with Col. John Sevier, Col. Landon Carter and later to be President Andrew Jackson. After a bitter division over land grants and other problems, the state was broken up in 1789. North Carolina regained control and ceded the land to the new government, which became the State of Tennessee in 1796.
From this documentation I believe that Lewis., Landon's father named him after Col. Landon Carter.

I have portions of Lewis' will on file.It was dated May 30, 1815 and probated in August of 1815.In his will, he makes provisions for his son John, his wife (shown as Jean in the will) and the five youngest children in her care (Severe and Carter indicated as the youngest sons), son Edward, son James (named as his second son), son John, and two son in laws ... Jesse Mullins (Elizabeth's husband) and Michael Martin (Mary's husband).His will names his wife (again shown as Jean) and son John as executors.There appears to have been a "falling out" with son Edward as he receives only a minimal share ($10).
