THOMAS YOUNGER SWAFFORD FAMILY PAGE
Thomas Younger SWAFFORD is one of eight (or maybe nine - ?) sons born in the area of Greenville Cty., SC. to Peter James SWAFFORD and Rennie HOWARD. Just before 1810, all the brothers and their families packed up and moved to Bledsoe Cty., TN. Once the brothers arrived in Bledsoe Cty. they again split up and scattered all over. Brother Isaac moved to KY., where he and his family appear on 1810 census for Clay Cty., KY. This sets the timeline for the brothers. Thomas remained in Bledsoe Cty., in the Sequatchie Valley for the rest of his life. He and most of his family are buried there next to the family church.
