From Kay Martin:
John BILLINGSLEY He was born on 10 September 1781 in Onslow Co., NC.Moved from NC to Sulliva n Co.,
TN with his parents in 1787. Married (1) on 10 Oct 1802, MarthaBLACKWOOD, b. NC 12 Mar 1786 . From a
published account in Biographical Album in 1808 and furnished by his son,Leander T. Billingsl ey, the claim is
made that John and his bride started from NC on a blind pony to findthemselves a home. They f inally reached the
Sequatchie Valley, Bledsoe Co., TN with a cash capital of one dollar andtwenty five cents. Th is marriage may have
taken place in NC but we feel that as no documentary evidence exists toprove it the logical p resumption is that it
occurred either in Sullivan Co., TN or or Washington Co., TN and that itwas from this point t he trip to Sequatchie
Valley was started. They located in Bledsoe Co., TN, cleared some landand made a crop with th e pony. During the
spring of the following year, the pony fell and broke it's leg and thesecond crop was made wi th a young bull.
Martha Blackwood died on 11 Mar 1829 and he married (2) on 15 Sept 1831to Jane HOODENPILE, b . NC 21
April 1812, d/o Philip Hoodenpile, a native of Holland. From a humblestart, John Billingsle y became one of the
wealthy and prominent citizens of Bledsoe Co., TN. He served some 40years as a member of th e County Court, and
part of the time it's Chairman. He also represented the County in theState Legislature. At th e time of his death 25
May 1856 his property was valued at $85,000.00. Jane survived him manyyears and died 3 Sept 1 894. The family
were Baptists. He and his two wives are buried in the Old SmyrnaGraveyard. The graves of Joh n and Jane are
