    Notes:

    Mike, Just going through some notes I have from Kieth Buck, concerning the Heron or Herron or Herring family. Actually, this is on James Brassfield, father of George Robert Riley Brassfield, my Ggrandmother's dad. *James Brassfield witnessed deed from James Griffith to John Brassfield of land on North side of Powell's River, Sept. 19, 1811 * 'James Brassfield made an affidavit, Feb. 23, 1816, Claiborne Co. TN. to the effect that he appointed George Petrey to be his attorney to collect from the Paymaster of the United States the wages due him for a "tower of duty" of 3 months and 26 days commencing Jan 17, 1814, as Private in Capt. Davis' company, East Tenn. Militia' * 'James Brassfield, of Claiborne Co., bought of Thomas Lay, of Cambell Co., 50 acres of land on South side of Powells River in Campbell Co., TN. Dennis M.T. Brassfield, John Brassfield, and Thomas Brassfield attested, April 3, 1822 [Deed Bk. G, p. 260, Campbell Co. TN.] * 'Bounty Land Warrant No. 80749 for 160 acres was issued June 4, 1858, to Arman Brassfield, widow of James Brassfield, Pvt., Capt. Davis' Company, Tenn. Militia, War of 1812, By George C. Whiting, Com. Warrant was sold by her to Nicholas Gann, of Pottawatomie Co. Kansas, Jan. 28, 1859. * Pension Records at the National Archives, Washington DC show: Arman Brassfield testified that James Brassfield, her husband, went with Command taken by General Jackson into the Creek Nation where he served during the winter and spring of 1814. * Affidavit of Riley Brassfield that he is a nephew of James Brassfield, deceased husband of Arman Brassfield. Dated March 23, 1873, Livingston Co., MO * Statements made by James Brassfield and Susannah Frisbie, of Livingston Co., MO, who say that they are children of James and Arman, that Sussanah was born while her father was in the service. * ---In 1875, before a Justice of the Peace, Grundy Co. Court, appeared Mary Brassfield, aged 75 years, a resident of Grundy Co., MO who states that she is a sister to Arman Brassfield, Widow of James. She says that she and her sister were married the same day, same place, by the same Justice of the Peace, Silas Williams, Feb. 9, 1811, Claiborne Co., Tenn. and that she married Thomas Brassfield, a brother to James Brassfield. It is interesting to me that Mary was only 11 years old and Arman was only 13 years old when they married. But apparently was not uncommon in those days in Kentucky and Tennessee. Also, Riley Brassfield claims to have been a nephew of James and Arman, and therefore a cousin to my GGgrandfather George Robert Riley Brassfield. But don't know who his parents were. [Riley Brassfield was the grandfather of Charlie Irwin, the subject of the book: "Prairie" Hope this helps. Joe Spence 3/25/2001 spencefly@oregontrail.net ************************** His Rank: Private His Unit: Moses Davis Pension Number: WC-5017 Additional Info: James Brassfield married Arman Heron (Herring) 09-1811, Claiborne Co., TN. On 23 Feburary 1816, James Brassfield appointed Geoge Petrey to be his attorney to collect from Paymaster of the United states the wages due him for his tour of duty of 3 months and 26 days, commencing 17 January 1814 as a Private in Capt. Davis' Company East Tennessee Militia. James Brassfield died 03 September 1839, in Campbell Co., TN. Arman Brassfield received Bounty lands. Arman Brassfield was listed as head of household on 1840 Census, Campbell County, TN, but she moved from Campbell County, TN to Livingston Co., MO by 1850.

    James married HERON, Arman on 9 Feb 1811 in Claiborne, Tennessee, USA. Arman was born on 18 Jun 1798 in Virginia, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    Michael, Was noticing the parents of George Robert Riley Brassfield, James and Armond Heron or Herring. I have been told by a couple of sources that Mary Heron or Herring and Armon or Armond Heron or Herring were sisters, and married brothers. Also that Armon's father was a brother or cousin to Abraham Lincoln's grandmother. Have you heard that? My grandparents were William Henry Spence, b. Aug. 1, 1890 [not 1889]at Wallowa, OR and my grandmother was Mina, not Nina. Her name was Mina Eliza Allen, b. May 26, 1892, at Lostine, OR. My grandfather's father was Henry S. Spence, b. Sept. 5, 1862 in Davis Co., IA His mother was Mary Lillian Brassfield, b. April 1, 1868 in Livingston Co., MO Henry Spence died Jan. 2, 1932 at Wallowa, OR and Lillian died April 7, 1943 at Enterprise, OR. Henry and Lillian are buried in the Enterprise Cemetery, Enterprise, OR, as well as William Henry Spence and wife Mina. Joe Spence 3/23/2001 spencefly@oregontrail.net
