Bio by B. Bradford - 4G granddaughter of Frances Russell and Patrick Naillon:
Frances Russell is the d/o William Russell and unknown mother born in Saluda, South Carolina. Her first husband was Preston Southerland / Sutherland and they had the following children together:
1. Lucinda Sutherland (b. 1812 - )
2. Daughter (b. abt. 1814 – d. bef. 1820)
3. Lydia Sutherland (b. 1816 – d. ) md. Willis Moore (s/o William Moore of NJ and 1st wife)
4. Sarah Sutherland (b. 1818 – d ) md. William Riley Moore (s/o William Moore of NJ and 2nd wife Nancy Cope)
5. Mark Sutherland (b. aft 1820)
Preston Sutherland was previously married to Drucilla and had children together.
Sometime after 1822, Patrick Naillon and his first wife, Nancy Catherine, split up and he relocated to Warm Springs, Buncombe Co. (now called Hot Springs in Madison Co.) NC and living near the Buncombe Turnpike, the main road to transport goods from Spartanburg, SC up to Greene Co., Tennessee. Their daughter, Catherine, married Jesse Fox of Greene Co., Tennessee in 1825 which tells us that Patrick traveled around enabling his daughter to become acquainted with the Fox Family of Greene Co., TN in the early 1820s. Jesse Fox was 20 years older than Catherine and also a slave owner. His parents, Andrew Fox and Sarah Render, purchased 300 acres of land on the Nolichucky River in Green Co., TN sometime in the mid 1780s from a Joseph Doherty. Patrick most likely worked in some capacity to support the Drover economy which was a mobile occupation and probably a blacksmith as well, since three of his sons through his first wife were noted in records as blacksmiths by trade and sons generally followed their father's footsteps in vocation. Patrick lived next door to the Garretts who operated a Dover Stand outside of Warm Springs (as proven in the 1830 Census). Patrick could have still been married to Nancy C. when he met widow Frances Russell-Sutherland (1785-1866) in 1825 who was living in the Warm Springs area with her children by her first marriage to Preston Sutherland (1775-1821). Patrick and Frances were supposed to have been married in Greene Co., Tennessee per family testimony but I have not been able to find any marriage record so far. However, it seems plausible for Patrick and Frances to marry in Greene Co., because he probably did not secure a divorce in North Carolina with Nancy C. and this was about the same time his daughter Catherine married Jesse Fox of Greene Co. TN. Frances became pregnant and their only known child, Elijah Washington Naillon, born October 26, 1826, in Warm Springs, NC.
