Generation: 4

  1. 8.  James H. Reagan was born 1826, Sevier County, Tennessee (son of Jeremiah "Jerry" Reagan and Mary Huskey); died 14 May 1868, Jackson County, North Carolina.

    Notes:

    James H. Reagan was born in the White Oak Flats community untile his marriage.
    In both the 1830 and 1840 Federal Census of Sevier County, Tennessee, he is
    listed with his parents.

    James H. went across the Great Smoky Mountains and met his future bride, Martha
    "Patsy" Bradley on the Bradley Fork of Oconalufty River in Haywood County,
    North Carolina.

    Shortly after the marriage, James H. and his wife Martha "Patsy" Bradley moved
    to Sevier County, Tennessee for a "temporary" two years stay. Then they
    returned to Bradley Fork of Oconalufty River in Haywood County, North Carolina
    to establish their permanent home.

    On 29 May 1848, James H. bought 89 acres of land from his father-in-law Isaac
    Bradley for $10.00. This land was located on the watershed of Bradley Fork,
    part of Oconalufty River in Haywood County, North Carolina. It began "at a
    Beech on the North side of said River on the waggon Road..."

    James H. and his wife Martha were listed in the 1850 Federal Census of Haywood
    County, North Carolina. There were three children in the household at that
    time: Sarah, age; Thomas, age 3; and Jerrymiah, age 1.

    On 9 January 1851, James H. bought 25 acres of land from John Hyde of Cherokee
    County, North Carolina for $25.00. This land was located "on the left hand
    fork of Ocona Lufta River known by the name of Morrison's Flats" in Haywood
    County, North Carolina.

    In 1860 James H. and his wife Martha were listed in the Federal Census of
    Jackson County, North Carolina. They now had seven children in the household.
    They were: Sarah, age 16; Thomas, age 14; Chasteen, age 10; Marcus, age 8;
    Jeremiah A., age 6; John, age 4; and Isaac, age 1.

    On 22 June 1861, James H. sold 10 acres of land to his brother-in-law Thomas
    Bradley for $10.00. This land located on the watershed of Bradley Fork, part
    of Oconalufty River in Jackson County, North Carolina. It began "at a Beech on
    the North bank of the left hand fork of Oconalufty on the bank of the Road
    above the residence of the said Thomas Bradley..." This was the land that
    James H. had purchased from his father-in-law Isaac Bradley.

    Two years later on 2 March 1863, James H. Reagan enlisted as a private in
    Company F. Thomas' Legion which was commanded by Colonel William H. Thomas. It
    is most likely that he served out his enlistment in Company F, Thomas' Legion
    from Jackson County, North Carolina. After he was discharged, he went home to
    resume farming on his lands.

    James H. died in the Oconalufty River community and was probably buried in the
    Bradley-Carver Cemetery in the Bradley Fork area, Great Smoky Mountains
    National Park.

    In the Abstract of Titles for Great Smoky Mountains National Park, there was
    noted "outstanding interests of the heirs at law of James Reagan for a
    one-eight each in that portion of tract" of land. Also another interesting
    item about this family was noted in the file...

    "James Reagan died leaving the following children and heirs at law,
    to wit.;
    "Sarah Roberts, husband Dan Roberts
    "Thomas Reagan
    "J. Chastain Reagan
    "Mark Reagan
    "Bige Reagan
    "John C. Reagan
    "Isaac Reagan
    "Mary Jane Bradley, husband General Bradley"

    Combining these excerpts and the census records verifies the names of the
    children of James and Martha "Patsy" Bradley Reagan.

  2. 9.  Martha "Patsy" Bradley was born 1824, , Burke, North Carolina (daughter of Isaac Bradley and Sarah Coxey); died 23 Jan 1883, Swain County, North Carolina.

    Notes:

    Martha "Patsy" Bradley Reagan was listed as the head of household in the 1870
    Federal Census of Jackson County, North Carolina. There were six children and
    one daughter-in-law in the household at that time. They were: John C., age 19
    and Martha C., age 26; James M., age 17; Jeremiah A., age 15; John C., age 13;
    Isaac E., age 11; and Mary J., age 7.

    Again, Martha was listed as the head of household in the 1880 Federal Census
    of Swain County, North Carolina. She had two children still living at home
    then: Isaac E., age 21; and Mary J., age 17.

    Martha died in the Oconalufty River community and it is assumend that she was
    buried probably beside her husband in the Bradley-Carver Cemetery in the
    Bradley Fork area of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.
