Person:Thomas Nuchols (1)

from Evilsizer3@@aol.com: "with their wives. They traveled in what was called a tandem cart, a two-wheeled outfit with shaves, one horse between the shaves, the other horse in front attached to the shaves. There was a seat between the wheels for the two women, with some space at their feet for equipment. Other equipment was fastened to the back of the seat. The men rode horses with more equipment tied to their saddles. You can judge from the description, that this was a very scanty outfit. pioneer stock, could pretty well live off the land. They came through Cosby, to the Pleasant Grove Community, near Hubbard Community now is. Since Sally was expecting, and they had traveled many days, Thomas stopped, and moved into a vacant house, which he later bought. There was four or five hundred acres with the house. All of his children was born there, and was sold, or given portions of the land. Many of the grandchildren were born there. but other evidence shows she was born in North Carolina. The stories I have read say she was from N.C., and that is where she was married toThomas. Another story says she and Thomas came from Virginia, through North Carolina, to Blount County.
