  1. 8.  Alexander Stinnett was born 18 Jul 1812, Sevier County, Tennessee (son of McKissick and Elizabeth Wilkerson); died 21 Jul 1877, Sevier County, Tennessee; was buried Stinnett Cemetery, Sevier County, Tennessee.

    Notes:

    Alexander was eleven or twelve years old at the time of his mother's second marriage. He was his mother's favorite child and when she gave him the family farm it caused an uproar in the rest of the Stinnett family. The other children later caused trouble over this and it must have gone on for quite a while. There are court records where they paid monetary sums to several of his children to cover their inheritance from John. As late as 1874, Elizabeth appeared in court and swore she had made and signed a deed for fifty acres of land to Alexander in 1866.

    From the Minutes of the New Salem Baptist Church:
    "...Took up a case against Brother Alexander Stinnett for fornication and finding no proof he was acquitted for the same."

    Baptist farmer.
