    Notes:

    Believied to be a daughter of Timothy and Elizabeth Reagan, Elizabeth was
    probably born in Caswell County, North Carolina, moving with her parents to
    Sevier County, Tennessee in late 1790's. Elizabeth was a sister to Sarah and
    Dursilla Reagan as indicated by Emert family records and traditions. Also in
    Donald B. Reagan's possession, a Reagan family record lists Elizabeth as a
    sister of Richard Reagan.

    It is believed that Elizabeth and Phillip lived in the Middle Creek area.
    Elizabeth Reagan is listed in the 1830 Federal Census of Sevier County,
    Tennessee. The latest land entry for Elizabeth was enter in 1835. Also she is
    still living in 1837 according to 1837 Sevier County, Tennessee Tax List.

    Elizabeth Reagan died in the Middle Creek area of Sevier County.
