"With the approach of the American Revolution, the dream of becoming a
separate colony with a royal colony with a royal governor was abandoned, and on
petition of the inhabitants the territory of Tennessee was annexed to North
Carolina in 1776 as the Washington district, which in 1777 became Washington
County, with the Mississippi River as the western boundary. During the American
Revolution, hardy mountaineers under John Sevier and Evan Shelby valiantly
fought against both the royal troops
chiefly as partisan rangers under Charles McDowell (1743-1815). An
interesting note shows the following regarding the marriage of David Parkhill
and Martha Wassham.” (James Parkhill, 2000)
