Hello,
My grandmother always told me that someone in her family actually owned the Tipton Farm in Cades cove. I found her Grandmother Eva Tipton who married Noah Miller but I am not sure who Eva’s parents were or her grandparents. Can you please help me get in the right direction?
Thank you,
Mike Hembree

Sarah E. Stover Tipton was my great grandaunt. She was my great grandmother’s older sister. I have a family portrait that includes my great grandparents and three of their children, including my grandfather. There are two other women in the portrait. I believe one is Sarah’s mother Joanna Gaines and I believe one of the individuals is Sarah E. Stover Tipton. Sarah married Winfield Scott Tipton on 15 November 1870 in Elizabethton, TN. I would like to post this portrait and inquire if any of your members can confirm the identification of Sarah E. Stover Tipton.
I don’t know that I qualify for membership in your group. Please let me know if you can help.
I am writing a biography of Sarah for my family history blog and hope to have it published in the Watauga Association of Genealogists Bulletin. I want to publish the photo of Sarah but would like confirmation of my identification.
Thank you for your consideration.

I recently found out through Ancestry DNA that I’m a descendant of the Tipton family, until my great grandmother, Mary Magdalene Tipton, married my great grandfather. As a retired soldier, it is humbling to see the military accomplishments of our ancestors and I wanted to say thank you for preserving all of this information so that it may be passed down.
Very Respectfully,

Dear TFAA,
I am researching our family geneology and am hoping to find more information on our family ancestors. My husband’s 4th GG James Anderson married Charlotte “Lotty” Tipton in 1846 in Blount County, TN, She appears to have been previously married to Pryor Nance. In further, James’ grandfather Daniel Anderson was listed as a member of Capt. Tipton’s Company in early settler lists for East TN. Hoping you may be willing to share any records or information on Charlotte Tipton as well as the Daniel Anderson line.
Many thanks, Laura Anderson.
