John Shanklin, Eastern TN
From the old Knoxville newspaper:
March 23, 1793
"Notice:About the latter end of December last, I gave my bond to Joseph Hart, for Twenty-five pounds, which bond was fraudulently obtained from me.I do therefore forewarn all persons from trading for the same, as I am determined not to pay it.John ShanklinMarch 12, 1793"
This is not my family;I contribute it in the spirit of research help.
