Desperately seeking info on Nicely line. My GR grandfather, James Caliway Nicely seems to have sprung from
nowhere. We know he was born 12/25/1856 in Grainger Co, near Kingston, TN. He ran away from home at a very
young age because he had a mean father. Because of that, he never said anything to anyone about his mother
or his father.

Although I haven't seen it, there is a TN Pension Roll listing a Caliway Nicely for a Civil War pension.
Anyone know how I could track this down to see if this Caliway is a relation?

Please, any scrap of info regarding the Nicely name would be most appreciated.

Thank you.
