| Note | From William R. Gann, Independence, MO. From Joy Gann Brown, Hillsborough, NC. The 1850 Fed Tennessee census listed James as living in the household of David Good. David was James brother-in-law. After Nathan Gann died, John Hunter was appointed guardian for the minor heirs, Margaret, James M. and Sarah Sophronia. Upon the death of John Hunter, Jacob F. Broyles was appointed guardian on 3 Jun 1852. In the guardianship report to the Court on 16 Dec 1852, the amount of $5 was listed as having been paid on 15 Oct 1848 to William early for tuition for James M. Gann. James and his wife, Caroline, left Tennessee for Texas with his mother and other members of his family sometime before the mid 1850's. James and Caroline would eventually have six children. This number is found in the 1910 Fed census of Wise Co, Texas, where Caroline, widow, is found living with her daughter, Texarcana. |
