Debbie, I am about at the same point you are. Our family came out of TN. Around Cumberland Gap, TN. The village below the historic Davey Crocket look out is named Tiprell, after Tip Cottrell who was a sheriff in the Smokies. He was shot and killed in the line of duty. Family legend has it he was shot for being a horse thief. jStrange! Happy to hear what you find, email me. Dan
