Swinney/Sweeny/Sweeney
Looking for info on John W. Swinney/Sweeny/Sweeney, b. 1852 - possibly in TN; lived in Marshall County at time of 1860 census.Married Alice C. Craig in Bedford County in 1875 and moved on the California.
Family lore leads us to believe his father's name started with a "W" and his mother's name may have been "Sarah".Also passes down vague story about some relationship with Davy Crockett.
Particularly want info on his family, where he lived and his grandparents, but will be happy to get anything you can share!
