Husband of Elizabeth Allred, buried beside her.
William Horner (1746-1824) hauled a four horse load of beef butchered on his place in Orange County, North Carolina to General Washington at Valley Forge in the winter of 1777/78 . For his service to the Revolution, including sundries furnished and cash paid the Militias of North Carolina, Virginia, and South Carolina he was awarded 4 pounds, 6 shillings, 4 pence, by the Hillsboro District of North Carolina. He was also awarded land grants in what later became Tennessee.

William Horner [1746-1824] served as a Patriot, furnished sundries and cash for the Militia of NC, SC, and VA. DAR # 462142. [Lists thirteen children of William and wife Elizabeth Allred (listed as Aldridge).]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Suggested edit: I entered an edit to change his county of death to Jefferson because at the time he died Hamblen did not even exist. If records before 1870 are needed you would have to to go Jefferson County to find them. BUT the burial site is now in Hamblen County, even though it was in Jefferson County when he died. Hope that does not confuse things. Jefferson County would be the county for any death records, not Hamblen County,
