| 12. | William Martin McTeer was born 28 Aug 1853, Blount County, Tennessee (son of James Anderson McTeer and Lovicey Croton Pitner); died 16 Feb 1930, Blount County, Tennessee; was buried Eusebia Cemetery, Blount County, Tennessee. Notes:
William M. had a small farm at Ellejoy adjoining some of the other McTeer
properties; his second wife moved away from Tennessee while her children were
still young; so it was daughter Anna Cummins (with the help of her brother
John) who took care of her father during a long and distressing illness. The
members of this family were distinguished for their mathematical ability and
their musical gifts; Lorena especially was a fine alto singer.
On 20 December 1902 W. M. McTeer was appointed guardian of Samuel H. McTeer,
Anna C. McTeer and William L. McTeer, his own minor children and also minor
heirs of Rachel C. McTeer. Moneys in this guardianship were figured at
interest from 27 August 1902 and there were various disbursements to the
children as they reached majority.
On 12 March 1930 Will A. McTeer was appointed Administrator of the Estate of
William M. McTeer; bond was for $1500 with A. B. McTeer, Julian McTeer and
Walker Johnson as sureties.
