Elkanah Anderson and his wife Sarah Sally Murray Anderson moved to Dickson County about 1806, he then died at the Battle of New Orleans, and Sarah moved with her family to Hickman County around 1829. One of their daughters, Polly, married a John Curry, likely your ancestor and that's why you link with both Andersons and Currys. John's father was probably David Curry, he shows up in the Hickman County District 10 tax records. The Andersons and Currys were part of the Cane Creek community. If you want to know more, shoot me an email anderw53@verizon.net. I have a lot of info on the Anderson side, not much on the Currys and would like more.<br /><br />Bill AndersonBill Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17111574028187296745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-839551061657279980.post-14890065240367939232020-07-20T15:42:26.881-07:002020-07-20T15:42:26.881-07:00I have Curry ancestors from Hickman and Perry Co.,...I have Curry ancestors from Hickman and Perry Co.,TN. David Anderson Curry and James E. Curry were born between 1820-1827. I find James G.(E.) in the 1850 Perry County census but by 1860 both brothers are living in Searcy Co.,AR. Why am I writing you? I have found a tiny bit of DNA connection to the Anderson and Whitwell families. David Anderson and James were forced into the Civil War and when David returned he went by Elcana Curry on one census. James did not return. I cannot seem to place these men with anyone. David's line died out but James has quite a few descendants.<br />bbok61@yahoo.comDCurrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-839551061657279980.post-75243452529470972492017-04-16T07:41:35.844-07:002017-04-16T07:41:35.844-07:00Vicki, I am part of a Whitwell DNA Circle on Ances...Vicki, I am part of a Whitwell DNA Circle on Ancestry.com.

I've always wondered if his mother, Caroline, was a Whitwell. Do you know of any Whitwells who have done autosomal DNA testing?
