From Laws of the State of Tennessee: Including Those of North Carolina …, Volume 2
Can we match these warrants to the correct Pryor in the correct Tennessee county?
“… one warrant issued by the commissioners of West Tennessee to JOHN PRYOR and since transferred by assignment to James Walker , No. 121, for 249 1-2 acres, dated November 8th, 1808.”
“… one duplicate military warrant issued by ———- to John Carter, jun. and since transferred by assignment to GREEN PRYOR, No. 236, for 640 acres dated May 30, 1817.”
Chapter 70, An act to provide for establishing a new Court House in the County of Morgan (1820)
“… Be it enacted, That PHILIP PRYOR, Ezekial Philpot, John M. Davis, Benjamin Hagler, and Joseph England, shall be, and they are hereby appointed commissoners to carry this act into effect, and a majority of them shall at all time be competent to transact any business, or perform any duty imposed upon them as commissioners. (I suspect this is Philip Pryor of Marion County since some of the names on this document appear in Roane County records).
