    The Christians living in the southern part of Polk County,
    led by Harrison and Nancy Linville, invited Mac Waller to
    visit their area in 1848 and organize a church. The McCartys
    and Bounds were living in this district, as were David and
    Mary Lewis, David Stump, and Dr. Zedekiah Davis. The
    Linvilles offered the use of their fine residence situated on the Luckiamute River for a meetingplace. Harrison Linville operated a ferry across the Luckiamute, and as a result, the main county road running from Nat Ford's place south into Benton County led past the Linville house. Waller accepted
    At Home in the Willamette Valley the invitation, and a congregation was set in order on the Luckiamute.

    Notes:

    "Campbell County Tennessee USA: A History of Places, Faces, Happenings, Traditions, and Things", Vol. I., by Dr. Miller McDonald. Campbell County, Tennessee County History. . As specified in the act that created the county, the first court was held at the home of Richard Linville. Linville owned his home, a farmstead, and public tavern in the area where La Follette is presently located. This site was selected because of Linville's prominence in the community and because the public house owned and operated by him was thought to be big enough to hold meetings pertaining to public affairs. Due to the size of the crowd in attendance, court was moved outside and held out of the back of an old-time wagon bed. Linville owned a copper still and was famous for the manufacture of "Indian Peach Brandy".

    Campbell County Court Record Index. Chapter and Section 21.6. Campbell County Court held at his home.

    Campbell County Tennessee USA (see above): History of Jacksboro, Tennessee. The town of Jacksboro and the land area surrounding it are more closely tied to Campbell County, its government and history than any other. As a small town it ranks among the oldest. ... The location of Jacksboro as the county seat for Campbell County was settled only after some debate and wrangling. The act creating Campbell County in 1806 appointed as commissioners James Grant, William Hancock, Jacent Cloud, Robert Glenn, RICHARD LINVILLE, Sampson David and John English to "lay out a place, the most suitable and convenient in said county for the purpose of erecting a court house, prison and stocks."

    Several Christians were in the very first wagon train to take the Applegate Trail, and the leaders of this train were
    Christians. This was the train led by brothers-in-law Harrison Linville and Medders Vanderpool. Vanderpool was married to Margaret Linville, a younger sister to Harrison. Among the other Christians in this train were John Bird Bounds and his wife, Elizabeth Lovelady Bounds. Their oldest daughter, Nancy Bounds Linville, was married to Harrison Linville.

    Except for one 77-year-old man, the oldest travelers in the
    train were Richard and Mary Linville, both in their 70s. They were the parents of Harrison Linville, Margaret Vanderpool and Catherine Crowley.

    Thomas and Mary ("Aunt Polly") Lovelady were also in
    this train. He was a brother to Elizabeth Bounds. Three other Christian families in this train were Absalom and Mary Ann Faulconer, Robert and Sarah Lancefield, and John Burris and Emily Smith. John Burris Smith was a gospel preacher, and his arrival brought the number of Christian preachers in Oregon to four.

    ---
    Another account of this pioneering train on the Applegate
    Trail commented: "The travelers found a shortage of food for
    their livestock, a scarcity of game for their own food and
    backbreaking toil in building a track for their wagons."28
    Unfortunately, they also had to confront the horrors of death on the trail. In a period of just ten days, Harrison and Nancy Linville each lost a parent.
    Elizabeth Bounds, Nancy's mother, died from the privations of the trail on November 13 and was buried the next day. She died near present-day Roseburg in Douglas County. After burying her on the trail, the wagons passed over the road several times to obliterate any sign of the grave. This was done to eliminate any possibility of Indians robbing her grave or of wild animals digging up her grave.
