2. | Nathaniel Humphrey was born between 1790 and 1800 in VA (son of John Humphrey and Susan Epperson); died between 1861 and 1870 in TN.

Nathan sold his land in Grainger Co to Jacob Kinder on Aug 22, 1822 (the same date as his father, John selling his land - evidently they sold their land together and moved to Anderson Co). Nathan had moved to Anderson County, TN by 1830 (as did John), was living in that county in 1840 and 1850, and had moved to Union County, TN in 1860.
