Generation: 4

  1. 8.  Isaac "Shucky" OgleIsaac "Shucky" Ogle was born 1788, Edgefield County, South Carolina (son of William "Billy" Ogle and Martha Jane Huskey); died 2 Sep 1881; was buried Banner Cemetery, Gatlinburg, Sevier County, Tennessee.

    Notes:

    Shucky moved with the family to Sevier County, Tennessee as early as 1805, soon after the death of his father.

    Isaac was one of the first settlers in Gatlinburg. No land records prior to 1824 were found for Isaac Ogle but it is shown by Richard Reagan's early grants that Isaac and William, his brother, entered land adjoining Richard's land on Mill Creek. This ran from Mill Creek down to "the lane" (Reagan Lane) and nearly to the old river road. Later records show this land as belonging to Isaac alone and still later to his son, Elijah Ogle. Isaac also entered land near the road from the Glades, running down to the mouth of Roaring Fork Creek in Gatlinburg. As his sons and daughters became of age, he gave them these lands and he moved to the Banner area north of Gatlinburg.

    Isaac and his wife, Susannah, were charter members of the White Oak Flats Baptist Church. The family appears in the Sevier County, Tennessee Federal Census records, 1830 to 1880. Isaac died 2 Sep 1881 according to the Death Register of 1881 found in Sevier County Courthouse.

    Notes:

    It is believed that Samuel Conner was named for his grandfather Samuel Conner. Family tradition says "Samuel Conner is said to be of red Irish ancestry while some of his younger generations is crossed with 'Black Dutch'." Samuel Conner was listed in the 1790 Federal Census of Lincoln County, North Carolina.

    On 24 September 1819, Samuel Conner bought 100 acres of land from John Hyde for $150.00. This land was located "on South West side of Natahala Johns Fork of the Oconaluftee River..." in Haywood County, North Carolina, now part of Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

    Samuel Conner was listed in the 1820 Federal Census of Haywood County, North Carolina. There was one male and two females born 1810/1820; one female born 1794/1804; one male born 1775/1794; and one male born before 1775 in the household.

    Samuel Conner was listed in the 1830 Federal Census of Haywood County, North Carolina. There was one male and two females born 1825/1830; one female born 1820/1825; one male and one female bor 1815/1820; two females born 1810/1815; and one male and female born 1780/1790 in the household. Their eldest daughter, Susannah, was already married to John Watson and lived next door to Samuel Conner in the 1830 census.

    On 4 April 1834 Samuel Conner bought 84 acres of land from Jacob Couches for $120.00. This land was located "on both sides of the North Fork of Oconaluftee River" and joined his land in Haywood County, North Carolina, now part of Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

    The Oconalufty Baptist Church was organized on 6 June 1836. Samuel Conner and his wife Nancy Swearingen joined the church as charter members.

    The Oconalufty Baptist Church "resolved that we have our Church meetings at Both Brothers Samuel Conners & Jacob Mignes (Seigor) Each one in their turn for conven[ience] of the Aged & infirm until we get a Regular meeting house and that we have a prayer meeting at Brother S. Conner & Brother Minges on each Fork of sd river Between Each Monthly meeting Each one in its turn."

    Samuel Conner died at his homeplace on the waters of Ocanalufty River. Exact date of death and burial site have not been located.

    It was indicated that one of Samuel Conner's heirs had not received their share in the estate. There is a Power of Attorney in Jackson County, North Carolina - it is given below:

    "State of North Carlina)

    From the Abstract of Titles for Great Smoky Mountains National Park, "we do not find any conveyance from Samuel Conner for either of the tracts conveyed to him by the foregoing deeds. He was one of the earliest settlers on Ocona Lufty River and he and those under whom he claims have been in the continuous posession of these lands for nearly a century." (This note was written in 1920's/1930's)
