I forgot to add:since your Tennie was left an orphan with the Buchanans at an early age, this indicates that her parents must have died fairly young, or at least not reaching late middle age.Also, tennie herself you indicate married and died very young.Did she, by any chance, suffer from muscular dystrophy?
You might also check on this genforum for the entry "Thomas Jackson York and Mary Willis" where there is again a Tenn. connection and a Tennie Mae and an Oklahoma connection.
Also, in Winona Dale barcon's entry on the Yorks, there is a Tennessee Williams who marries a Mr york and goes to Arkansas.I think he was Noah York.
Neither of these two entries however says anything about Sgt york and indian connections.
