Descendants of Go-sa-du-i-s-ga

Generation No. 2


2. NANCY2 SCOTT (GO-SA-DU-I-S-GA1) was born 1769 in CNE [TN], and died 1855. She married JOHN THORNTON, SR, son of MATTHEW THORNTON. He was born Abt. 1770 in Campbell Co, VA, and died 1849.

Notes for NANCY SCOTT:
Nancy married John Thornton and they had ten children including three sets of twins.
---
Tennessee records indicate Nancy Thornton took possession of Indian lands at the Southwest point of Roane County, Tennessee in 1816. This was near the Indian Trading Post run by Jonathan Meigs and is in now what is known as Meigs County, but at that time it was Roane County. John Thornton had a
deed for land in Rhea County, adjacent to Roane County. According to those records, he died in 1849.
--
In Starr's Gosaduisga 1-x family group Nancy is listed as simply "Nancy", the daughter of Go-Sa-Du-I-Sga. I'd previously had her listed as Nancy Go-Sa-Du-I-Sga but her correct surname would be Scott.

4. ELIZABETH (GO-SA-DU-I-S-GA)2 SCOTT (GO-SA-DU-I-S-GA1) was born Abt. 1771. She married EDWARD ADAIR, SR Bef. 1794, son of JAMES ADAIR and ESTER MCBRIDE. He was born 1755, and died August 1820.

Notes for EDWARD ADAIR, SR:
Edward Sr may have been married to a Vann that mothered Edward Jr. His wife Betsy Scott was married to Chief James Vann and she may have been listed with her Vann name as the mother of Ed Jr.

Edward Adair Sr and his brother John are supposed to be the half-Cherokee sons of the Indian trader James Adair; however, this has not been proved. Edward and John may have been Non-Cherokee relatives [nephews? great-nephews?] of the Indian Trader. Edward in particular was refered to in the records of Gideon Blackburn's School as a "White Patron" in 1807.

Dr Emmet Starr refers to John & Edward as "Two brothers, John and Edward Adair, Scotchmen, came to America from North Ireland..."
