Hello, Lauren,
James W. Culton (b. 15 Dec 1778 Augusta Co, VA d. 29 Jan 1863 Charleston, TN) and his wife, Margaret Weir (b.7 Sept 1782 d.2 Nov 1855)were married 20 January 1801 in Blount Co., Tennessee.They moved to McMinn Co, TN before 1832 and were members of Mars Hill Presbyterian Church in Athens, TN.They are both buried in the Mt. Cumberland Cemetery in rural Athens, Blount County, TN.(We searched for the cemetery to no avail however my aunt and uncle did find it once.)Their children:
Nancy b.1802 m. Hugh Wilson
Anna b.1809 m. Samuel Barnett
Sarah
James W.
Ursula m.Benjamin Hudson
Margaret Jane b.1815
Alexander Hugh b. 1818 d.1900
I am descended from Alexander Hugh Culton and I have found his marker in the cemetery of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Charleston, Tennessee.It reads, "He walked with God".Both his first wife, Sarah Fine Newman (1821-1882), and his second wife, Susan Carmack, are buried there.
Aloha,
Marlene
