She is buried on one side by Michael and Mary Easter and Naomi and Willie Easter and on other side by Adam and Christine Clodfelter. Many people in their trees have Lucinda as Marsha Lucinda. I believe this is because after Lucinda passed in 1907, Henry remarried Marsha L. Beck in 1909. They are assuming the L stands for Lucinda. Lucinda and Henry married in 1878.	Fritts, Lucinda R. (I68)

20	The Pioneer Fritts Family Settle On Clinch-Paw Paw Creek The pioneer Henry Fritts family came from North Carolina and settled in Roane County about 20 miles up the meanders of Clinch River, or approximately 8 air miles from the town of Kingston. The original home site purchased was in the area of considerable historical significance, and their early neighboring families produced leaders in various fields of endeavor. The deed of conveyance from Thomas N. Clark to Henry Fritts describes the land as being between Clinch River and Buttermilk Road on, or near Paw Paw Creek. This creek flows into the Clinch at a point below an island of approximately 30 acres which was owned at various times by Matthew Nail, Reubin Williams, John Jones, John B. Waller and others. Later the island was covered by the backwaters of Watts Bar Lake. Historical Location The Buttermilk Road was either a segment or, or a road parallel to, the Great Stage Road from Campbell Station in Knox County to Kingston in Roane County. When high waters threatened at the confluence of the Tennessee and Clinch Rivers at Kingston, travelers would by-pass the flood problems by leaving Buttermilk Road and crossing the Clinch ay Paw Paw Ford at a point below the large island. The travelers would proceed by, or near, the present site of the K-25 Oak Ridge Gaseous Diffusion Plant to Old Emery Road as it passed through the historical Clack's gap in Pine Ridge. From Clack's gap, the travelers would pass on to either Little Emery River and through the DeArmond's Gap in Waldens Ridge on their way to Kentucky, or to Big Emery Gap in Ridge(at Harriman) and turn left to Crab Orchard on their way to Nashville. Paw Paw Plains Early neighboring families of the Fritts in the Paw Paw area included: Waller, Pickel, Rayburn, Montgomery, Eblen, Williams, Haggard, Casner, Grubb, Burk and Matlock. The community grew and was known as Paw Paw Plains. Paw Paw Ford was approximately 4 miles from Wheat on the Waller's Ferry Road leading to Lenoir City. The Indian town of Paw Paw and the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Plant site will be discussed later.	Fritts, Henry (I7)

32	According to the Davidson Co., NC Hege, Story #1248 * Arthur was the son of Thomas Jefferson and Delilah (Hedrick) Wright of Cid. Ida's family lived on Wright Road. Arthur and Ida made their home in Winston Salem near their first jobs at R.J. Reynolds. They soon longed for life back on the farm and moved to land adjoining Thomas Wright. They had learned the ways of farming from early childhood experiences. To supplement income from the family farm, Arthur went to work as a section-hand on the new railroad and worked in the Emmons Mine. About 1920, he began growing tobacco as a money crop to bring in additional revenues for his family. By the late 1930's, Arthur abandoned the farming of tobacco and began a dairy farm. He kept his dairy farm until his death in 1966. Their children Margie and Luther remained on the homeplace after their parents' passed away and kept up the family farm on Cid Road.

36	Amanda Tennessee Fritts Back when I was a little girl my parents would my brothers and myself to Oliver Springs to see "Grandmow", Grandmow scared me silly as she was so ancient to a 9 year old girl. She was so bent and fragile and she was talked to with great respect by my parents and even my grandparents, who, also called her "Grandmow". was always sent out to plat after supper, but, oh how I wished I had stuck around to listen to Grandmow's stories. You see, Grandmow was Amanda Tennessee Fritts Vought. Amanda's daddy was Jeremiah Fritts and her grandfather was Henry Fritts. and his family came over the mountains from Rowan County, North Carolina about 1811. He had purchased about 161 acres of land in Roane County, This land was described as being between the Clinch River and Buttermilk Road, on or near Paw Paw Creek. Today it is in the boundries of Oak Ridge. It used to be known as "The Matlock Place". After Henry's move to Roane County, his first wife died and Henry remarried, This time to Patsey Liles. Patsey is the mother of my grandparent, Jeremiah and his brother Ransom Fritts. Patsey died soon after Ransom's birth, leaving Jeremiah and Ransom to be raised by their Aunt Catherine Fritts, a sister of Henry. Henry went on to marry a third time to Ann Turnbull. Jeremiah and Ransom married the Powell sisters. Sarah to Jeremiah and Nancy J to Ransom in a double ceremony. There marriage date is 17 Aug 1859. Both brothers fought in the Civil War in the Union Army, "D" Co., 5th Infantry. Both Brothers are listed as "Deserters". Amanda's explanation to the inevitable question to "What did your daddy do in the war?" was that Jeremiah farmed by night and hid himself and the animals in caves during the day. He decided that his family's well being was more important than off fighting and killing men. I have no record of Ransom after his desertion except that he appears on the 1880 census for Scott County, Tennessee. Amanda Tennessee Fritts was born May 20, 1877 in Copper Ridge (now Oak Ridge.) She was the 7th child of Jeremiah and Sarah Fritts and the family says that Amanda had "powers". She could devine water, could heal and had foresight. Amanda met Frank Henry Vought when he came on the homestead drifting and asked for work. Amanda said, "Papa gave him to choppin wood and he just kind of stayed around after that." Frank and Amanda were married on July 1, 1894 by J.T. Miller, JP in Roane County. Of that marriage my great grandmother was born. Her name was Dora Ann Vought, on Mar 18, 1898. Dora married John William Harmon. A cousin of sort since his father was James Harmon. James was raised by Silas T. Fritts. Willie's parents were James Harmon and Sarah Whitlock. Willie and Dora had 3 living children. My Grandfather, Sherman Franklin, a brother Roscole Monroe and a daughter, Clara. Dora died just after giving birth to a fourth child in 1924. Both are buried in Walnut Hill Cemetery. Sherman and his siblings were raised by Amanda and Frank. Willie died June of 1947. He rest besides Dora. Sherman married Ruby Irene Wright, daughter of Arthur Wright and Mary Alice Beason on September 2, 1933. Of that marriage my father, Edward Franklin, born Nov 1934, and his brother Leland Monroe, Born Dec 1936 and sister Clarise Irene, born Oct 1938 were born. Edward married Nancy Ann Baker on Jan 3, 1953 and I arrived in Aug. I was quickly followed by three brothers. Sherman Franklin, born Aug 1954, Robert Lawrence, born Jun 1956 and Scott Monroe, born May 1957. There are many more people to this tree than the ones I have mentioned. I've just given the direct line from there to here. There are many more lines that contribute to my DNA than just the Fritts. I have to give credit to the Wrights, the Frost, the Whitlocks, the Easters, and the Beasons. To these lines I am still searching and I think you for making me what I am. But, to "Grandmow" I had to write this about her line just casuse I thought she deserved it. Amanda died in September, 1962 and is buried beside Frank in the South Harriman Cemetery.

According to the Davidson Co., NC Hege, Story #1248 * Arthur was the son of Thomas Jefferson and Delilah (Hedrick) Wright of Cid. Ida's family lived on Wright Road. Arthur and Ida made their home in Winston Salem near their first jobs at R.J. Reynolds. They soon longed for life back on the farm and moved to land adjoining Thomas Wright. They had learned the ways of farming from early childhood experiences. To supplement income from the family farm, Arthur went to work as a section-hand on the new railroad and worked in the Emmons Mine. About 1920, he began growing tobacco as a money crop to bring in additional revenues for his family. By the late 1930's, Arthur abandoned the farming of tobacco and began a dairy farm. He kept his dairy farm until his death in 1966. Their children Margie and Luther remained on the homeplace after their parents' passed away and kept up the family farm on Cid Road.

Amanda Tennessee Fritts

Back when I was a little girl my parents would my brothers and myself to Oliver Springs to see "Grandmow", Grandmow scared me silly as she was so ancient to a 9 year old girl. She was so bent and fragile and she was talked to with great respect by my parents and even my grandparents, who, also called her "Grandmow".

was always sent out to plat after supper, but, oh how I wished I had stuck around to listen to Grandmow's stories. You see, Grandmow was Amanda Tennessee Fritts Vought. Amanda's daddy was Jeremiah Fritts and her grandfather was Henry Fritts. and his family came over the mountains from Rowan County, North Carolina about 1811. He had purchased about 161 acres of land in Roane County, This land was described as being between the Clinch River and Buttermilk Road, on or near Paw Paw Creek. Today it is in the boundries of Oak Ridge. It used to be known as "The Matlock Place". After Henry's move to Roane County, his first wife died and Henry remarried, This time to Patsey Liles. Patsey is the mother of my grandparent, Jeremiah and his brother Ransom Fritts. Patsey died soon after Ransom's birth, leaving Jeremiah and Ransom to be raised by their Aunt Catherine Fritts, a sister of Henry. Henry went on to marry a third time to Ann Turnbull. Jeremiah and Ransom married the Powell sisters. Sarah to Jeremiah and Nancy J to Ransom in a double ceremony. There marriage date is 17 Aug 1859. Both brothers fought in the Civil War in the Union Army, "D" Co., 5th Infantry. Both Brothers are listed as "Deserters". Amanda's explanation to the inevitable question to "What did your daddy do in the war?" was that Jeremiah farmed by night and hid himself and the animals in caves during the day. He decided that his family's well being was more important than off fighting and killing men. I have no record of Ransom after his desertion except that he appears on the 1880 census for Scott County, Tennessee. Amanda Tennessee Fritts was born May 20, 1877 in Copper Ridge (now Oak Ridge.) She was the 7th child of Jeremiah and Sarah Fritts and the family says that Amanda had "powers". She could devine water, could heal and had foresight. Amanda met Frank Henry Vought when he came on the homestead drifting and asked for work. Amanda said, "Papa gave him to choppin wood and he just kind of stayed around after that." Frank and Amanda were married on July 1, 1894 by J.T. Miller, JP in Roane County. Of that marriage my great grandmother was born. Her name was Dora Ann Vought, on Mar 18, 1898. Dora married John William Harmon. A cousin of sort since his father was James Harmon. James was raised by Silas T. Fritts. Willie's parents were James Harmon and Sarah Whitlock. Willie and Dora had 3 living children. My Grandfather, Sherman Franklin, a brother Roscole Monroe and a daughter, Clara. Dora died just after giving birth to a fourth child in 1924. Both are buried in Walnut Hill Cemetery. Sherman and his siblings were raised by Amanda and Frank. Willie died June of 1947. He rest besides Dora. Sherman married Ruby Irene Wright, daughter of Arthur Wright and Mary Alice Beason on September 2, 1933. Of that marriage my father, Edward Franklin, born Nov 1934, and his brother Leland Monroe, Born Dec 1936 and sister Clarise Irene, born Oct 1938 were born. Edward married Nancy Ann Baker on Jan 3, 1953 and I arrived in Aug. I was quickly followed by three brothers. Sherman Franklin, born Aug 1954, Robert Lawrence, born Jun 1956 and Scott Monroe, born May 1957. There are many more people to this tree than the ones I have mentioned. I've just given the direct line from there to here. There are many more lines that contribute to my DNA than just the Fritts. I have to give credit to the Wrights, the Frost, the Whitlocks, the Easters, and the Beasons. To these lines I am still searching and I think you for making me what I am.

But, to "Grandmow" I had to write this about her line just casuse I thought she deserved it. Amanda died in September, 1962 and is buried beside Frank in the South Harriman Cemetery.
