An Early Joshua Dale in Sumner Co., TN
Today I was reading through old court records of Sumner Co., TN, looking for evidence of the early Dale settlers in what would later become Smith and Overton Cos.I came across a familiar name but it's not a Dale I can connect to anyone:
Sumner Co. (TN) Court Minutes
October Term 1795, meeting 6 October 1795
Deed of conveyance from Andrew Boyd to Isaac Patton proved by JOSHUA DALE.
Reference:
Tennessee State Library & Archives
WPA Records 1936-1943
Sumner Co., TN
Rec. Gr. #107, Mf #81, typewritten p. 128
My gg gf Joshua Dale was not born in Overton Co. for another 13 or so years.His father Alexander Dale was apparently in middle TN in the mid-1790s but I have no records of any other Joshua Dale in any of the early TN Dale clans.Does anyone recognize these names?
By the way, this was the *only* mention of *any* Dale I found in 13 years of court minutes from July 1787 to October 1799 in Sumner County (in nearly 350 typewritten pages of minutes).
