John WARWICK of Warwick's Cross Roads is last mentioned in official Anderson County Court Records in 1819. He is last mentioned in the minutes of the Hind's Creek Baptist Church in 1821 and he probably died circa this time. There is no mention of his wife in either records and he may have been a widower before coming to East Tennessee. Though it is uncertain, it is believed that Miss HAMILTON was the mother of all his children, and there certainly seems to have been more children than are known to me at this time. A John WARWICK who married Elizabeth MARKWELL in Kentucky in 1790 may have been a son that did not move to Tennessee or perhaps a son of Jacob or Wyatt ? In the 1830 Grainger County census there is a widow Mary Warwick who had probably been married to a son of John WARWICK whose name is now lost. The known children are:
- A. Delilah WARWICK, born 1777, married John JAMES.
- B. William WARWICK, who always used his nickname "Willie", often spelled "Wiley", was born in 1779 and died sometime between 1853 and 1860. His first wife was Margaret "Peggy" LANE, who died sometime between 1830-1840. His second wife was Katherine ____?____. Willie WARWICK and his brother-in-law John JAMES were instrumental in establishing the Zion Hill Baptist Church (originally called Equality) in 1848. Willie WARWICK is believed to be buried there.
- The children of Willie and Peggy WARWICK were:
- 1. J. (John) Elias WARWICK, born 1801, married Mary MONROE.
- 2. William WARWICK, born 1802, married Tempy ___?___, one time squire of Anderson County. He died of a nose bleed in early 1850.
- 3. Nancy WARWICK, born 24 Nov 1811, died 2 Sep 1881, married James W. TURNER.
- 4. Patsy WARWICK, married Archilus SMITH.
- 5. Calloway WARWICK, born circa 1820.
- 6. Willis WARWICK, born circa 1824.
- 7. Volena WARWICK, born circa 1825, never married, died of consumption in 1850. There are probably more children. It does not seem that there were any children by the second marriage.
- C. Nancy Elizabeth Warwick, born 1783, died circa 1868, married on 1 Apr 1803 to George TURNER, Sr.
- D. Willis WARWICK, born 1787, died 14 Nov 1866, married Elizabeth TURNER, both are buried at Old Zion Hill Church.
- Their children were:
- 1. Edwin WARWICK, born 12 Nov 1806, married Elizabeth
- 2. Lewis WARWICK, born 13 May 1808, married Elmira "Myra" LEWIS.
- 3. Berry WARWICK, born 16 Oct 1809, married Lurana ___?___.
- 4. John WARWICK, born 1 May 1812, never married.
- 5. Delilah WARWICK, born 24 Dec 1813, never married.
- 6. Preston WARWICK, born 20 Sep 1816, married Charity C. HANSARD.
- 7. Willis WARWICK, Jr., born 4 Dec 1818, married Elizabeth LEWIS.
- 8. Ewell Dee WARWICK, born 20 Dec 1820, married Lucy Jane HANSARD.
- 9. Emanuel WARWICK, born 3 April 1823, married Dicy NELSON or JACKSON.
- 10. Sarah WARWICK, born 3 Sept 1828, was never married.
- E. Marcy WARWICK, John's youngest daughter who was born 1788 and seems to have taken care of her father in later years, never married. After her father's death she remained in the old cabin and in her old age was cared for by her nephew Calloway WARWICK.
This concludes the history of the early WARWICK's.

I am searching for the parents of Nancy Hamilton who was married about 1775 in Tygart's Valley, Augusta County, VA to John WARWICK. Probably soon thereafter, they are in Anderson/Knox County, TN. Nancy and John had 6 children to my knowledge: John Warwick, Jr., Delia, William (Wiley), Nancy Elizabeth, Willis, and Mercy Warwick. Delia is my ggg-grandmother and Nancy Hamilton would be my gggg-grandmother. I would expect her parents would have been in Virginia. Any lead would be greatly appreciated. Nina
