I believe Billie asked about this a week or so ago,   it was on an AOL hometown site that was shut down.   Fortunately it was saved in a email.   Dorothy Campbell shares many of my same lines.   This is one of them.

Family of My Great Grandmother Rhoda Ann Lewallen Young

Rhoda Ann Lewallen was born December 15, 1828 to the parents of Andrew L. Lewallen and Malinda Elizabeth Davis Lewallen. Andrew and Malinda were both born in North Carolina.   They were married November 14, 1814 in Roane County Tennessee.

Andrew was born October 7, 1793 in Wake County , North Carolina and moved with his parents in 1811 to Roane County at the age of seventeen. Parents of Andrew were Anderson Grant Lewallen and Lucy Rice Lewallan of Prince Edward County, Virginia. At this point , we have been unable to discover any ancestors of Lucy Rice Lewallen.

Andrew was a tall , slender Methodist Minister and also a farmer. He passed away November 30, 1873 in Scott County , Tennessee.

Malina Davis Lewallen was born April 1, 1792 in North Carolina to Joseph and Elizabeth   Davis of Virginia. Malinda died April 11, 1876 in Scott County, Tennessee.

Andrew and Malinda are both buried in the Carpenter Cemetery on Nydeck Road near Wolf Creek and White Oak Creek In Morgan County, Tennessee. Their headstones are clearly marked.

4. Rhoda Ann---Born December 15, 1831------------------------------- M: Matthew Young
5. Walter Davis-Born April 4, 1831---- ------------------------------------ M: Anna Brown

Elizabeth Lewallen married Matthew Young and after she passed away, Matthew married her younger sister Rhoda Ann Lewallen. Matthew had twelve children between the two sisters. Rhoda Ann was my Great Grandmother though and she and Matthew raised all the children together.

Matthew’s brother also married Nancy Lewallen , so this made Nancy’s children and Elizabeth’s and Rhoda Ann’s children all double cousins.

Resa, I'm not so sure the descendants of Anderson are correct.   We've only assumed Wiley was a son of Anderson's, however, Wiley was born 1795.   From what was found, it seems Anderson had a son named Jesse and I think Wiley was from Jesse.   I think Anderson may have had a brother also with that name.  

In the search history blank above, type in North Carolina and then when the page comes up, click on the one that says "North Carolina - chronology" and take a look.   Scroll down to Wake County and you'll see what I mean about him having a son named Jesse.   You can also type in the search history blank Virginia and click on the page that says "Virginia - Chronology" and look at the section for Prince Edward County.   Most of the postings on those pages are documented.   Let me know what you think after you go over them.
