711 John volunteered for the Revolutionary War and served for five years. John moved from Prince George Co, MD to Virginia, to Surry Co, NC, and was living in Grainger Co, TN by 1799 in as much as he is listed on the tax rolls there. He was also listed on the Grainger Co, TN tax rolls in 1804, 1814, and 1821. John was picked to serve on a grand jury in Grainger Co, TN on Aug 15, 1803. Humphrey, John (I10970)
 
712 John was a union soldier in the Civil War. Corum, John (I949)
 
713 John's son Henson bought 30 acres of land in Grainger Co, TN that shared a property line with Nathan Humphrey from Charles Gilbert on Dec 1, 1817. John, Nathan, and Solomon Humphrey witnessed this transaction. Henson was living in Anderson Co, TN in 1821 but had moved to Putnam Co, IN by 1826. He was of the Primitive Baptist Faith. Humphrey, Henson (I11682)
 
714 John's son John Jr lived in Anderson Co, TN in 1830, 1840, and 1850, and moved to Union Co, TN where he lived in 1860 and 1870. John sold 50 acres of land in Anderson Co, TN to his brother William in Feb 1832. This transaction was witnessed by Nathan Humphrey and Solomon Humphrey (who was living in Indiana (?)). Humphrey, John (I827)
 
715 John's son Solomon purchased 48 ? acres of land in Shacly Hollow, Grainger Co, TN from William Arnold on Aug 14, 1807 (at age 10?). He sold a small tract of this land to David Manly on Sep 10, 1819. Solomon served in the War of 1812 in the Tennessee Militia in Captain John Howell's company, Colonel Samuel Burch's regiment. Solomon volunteered at Rutledge, Grainger Co, TN and musted into service on Jan 10, 1814 and was honorably discharged at Lookout Mountain, TN on Aug 1, 1814. Solomon was stationed at Fort Deposil in the Cherokee Nation and fought against the Creek Nation in the Horseshoe Battle on the Tallapoosie River. Solomon then returned to Fort Williams on the Coosie River where he was attached to the Company of Captain Joseph Duncan and remained there until his discharge. Solomon applied for and received a bounty of 80 acres of land in Indiana for his service. There was some confusion as to his discharge date (some documents recorded it as April 27, 1814 or May 17, 1814) and Solomon contested this date inasmuch as the August 1, 1814 discharge date would have entitled him to receive additional land. The disposition of the dispute is unknown. Solomon also applied for a war service pension on April 11, 1871 which was approved on Oct 30, 1871 and he received a pension of $8.00 per month retroactively beginning on Feb 14, 1871.

Solomon and his wife, Sarah moved to Monroe Co, IN in 1827, moved to Putnam Co, IN in 1830, and finally to Greene Co, IN in 1848 where they remained until their death.

721 Joseph Yadon was born in Ireland, 17 Dec 1756. As early as 1772 he was serving in the Irish Army. During the American Revolution, Irish troops were sent to join the British forces against the colonists. Joseph Yadon came to America with British forces under the command of General Burgoyne and was among the prisoners captured during Burgoyne's defeat at Saratoga. These prisoners were marched thru Virginia toward the Albemarle Barracks, at Charlottesville, VA. Many slipped away to join the American Army. Historians note that the Irish people were three to one on the side of the colonists.

Joseph Yadon was one of these. He enlisted in the American army in 1779, at Martinsburg, VA (now West Virginia). He was under the command of Col. Joseph Crockett. In Sep 1780, Col. Crockett's men were sent to Ft. Pitt (Pittsburg) where they joined General George Rogers Clark. In June of 1781, Gen. George Rogers Clark left Ft. Pitt with a force of 400 men, traveling in boats down the Ohio River to The Falls of the Ohio (now Louisville, KY). They stayed at The Falls until December when Joseph Yadon was discharged.

Please note that the Lewis and Clark expedition began 14 May 1804 from St. Louis, and the Clark of this expedition was William Clark (Gen. George Rogers Clark's younger brother). In 1804 Joseph Yadon was in TN and had 10 children. He married Mary Pennybaker (daughter of Jacob and Christiana Pennybaker) 12 Jan 1782. They had 12 children. Joseph Yadon died 1 Sep 1842, at age 87. He is buried in the Yadon Cemetery. A low, granite marker identifies him as "A Revolutionary War Vet".

738 Kimberly "Kim" Rose Hurt age 47 of Somerset, Kentucky went to be with her Lord and Savior on April 12, 2018 surrounded by family and friends at the University of Kentucky Medical Center following a sudden illness.

Kim was born on July 5, 1970 at Christ Hospital in Cincinnati, OH to parents Donnie and Diana Harper. Kim is survived by her parents; her husband, Don Hurt; her children, Donovan and Devan Hurt; her twin sister, Kelly & (Bobby) Bowling; her future daughter-in-law, Markie Catron; her paternal grandfather, Russell Harper; her mother-in-law and father-in-law, Gene and Mary Lynn Hurt; her sisters-in-law, Jeanne Hurt Sutton, and Kim Hurt Crouch & (Doug); and as host of aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.

Kim was a licensed cosmetologist and barber, but following the birth of her first child put her career on hold to become a stay at home mother. She was a dedicated mother, wife and committed herself to raising her children and taking care of her family.

Kim enjoyed gardening, working in her yard and attending her children's sporting events and school functions. She also loved to spend time with her three dogs Chloe, Isabel and Wrigley.

Kim was also a dedicated Christian and servant of Christ. Her firm Christian beliefs were the bedrock of her family upbringing and helped her to cope with life's many twists and turns. She often sacrificed herself for the benefit of others both spiritually and financially.

Kim was well liked by anyone who met her and had a calming motherly influence on many people in her life. Her kind disposition and caring personality shined through on a daily basis. She will be sincerely missed by her family and loved ones; her memory will continue on throughout their lives. The community has lost a great mother, wife, sister, daughter, and friend to all, and will be a lesser place with Kim's untimely passing.

A funeral service will be held at 1:00 PM Tuesday, April 17, 2018 at the First United Methodist Church of Somerset with Bro. Clyde Strunk officiating.

Burial will be in Science Hill Cemetery.

Visitation will be after 4:30 PM Monday, April 16, 2018 at the First United Methodist Church.
