    Notes:

    John Ridenour served in the Revolution. As a young man he left his Hagerstown, Maryland home and plunged into the wilderness. John Ridenour and his family moved to Berkeley County, Virginia in 1794 then to Tennessee before 1800.

    He is found with his family in 1797 in Montgomery County, Virginia where, on 29 June, Caty (Noe) and John "Ridennour" gave consent for their son, Joseph "Ridenhour" to marry Mary Sharp. Mary's father, John Sharp, consented to the marriage and Peter Harmon, Martin Ritennour, William Sharp and George Sharp were witnesses and provided security.

    Two months later, on 11 August 1797, John "Ritenour" consented to the marriage of his son, John "Ritennour," to Mary "Harloss." These names are spelled as they appear in the original records. Henry Harless and Mary Havin, parents of Mary, gave their consent to the marriage, while Peter Harmon and Thomas Smith were witnesses and provided security. Both John and Joseph Ridenauer were under age at the time of their marriages and thus parental consent was required.

    John Ridenour Senior with his two sons, John Jr. and Martin, were pioneers at Grantsborough and followed the river traffic for more than forty years. Leading a life of a hunter and trapper he floated his furs to New Orleans. He roved through the middle west with the Indians, learning two or three Indian dialects. He knew many of the famous hunters of pioneer times.

    There is a John Ridenour listed in the 1830 Anderson County, Tennessee census with 3 males 40-50, 1 male 30-40, 2 males 20-30, 2 males 15-20, 1 male 0-5, 1 female 70-80, 1 female 50-60, 1 female 15-20, and 1 female 0-5 years old.

    Will of John Ridenour Probated 10 January 1828

    In the Name of God Amen, I John Ridenour Senior of Campbell County and State of Tennessee, being very sick and weak in body but of perfect mind and memory, do make and ordain this my last will and testament that is to say, principally, first of all, I give and bequeath my body to earth to be buried in a Christian like manner and my soul to God, secondly I give and bequeath to my son John Ridenour a piece of land lying on Indian Creek below John Sharp's mill containing 20 acres. Thirdly I give and bequeath to my son Martin Ridenour my chestnut sorrel mare, and my cow and all my notes and accounts that I have in my hands now and all my tools and my trunk and one little wheel and one small oven and one check real, three pewter plates and one dish and one bed stead and I ordain my son Martin my executer of this my last will and testament, signed, sealed and pronounced by said John Ridenour as his last will and testament in the presence of us.

    Other Events:

    • Burial: 1935, Bakers Forge Memorial Cemetery, La Follette, Campbell County, Tennessee

    Notes:

    Henry is believed to have married four times. Not all of his marriage dates are known and most of his children's birth dates are known.

    Henry grew up on the Yadkin River at the Boone Settlement, North Carolina. From early youth he was an explorer with Indian traders west of the mountains, learning several Indian languages. He enlisted in the 11th Virginia Continental Line at Hampshire County, Virginia in the Revolutionary War. He was a flatboat man and helped transport goods down the Ohio from present-day Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to French settlements in present-day Illinois and Indiana. In 1788, he was captured by the Northern Indians near Maysville, Kentucky, and taken to Detroit, Michigan. Arthur Campbell secured his release from the Indians. Upon his return, he took a fine horse from Col. Campbell to Squire Boone's Station near Louisville, Kentucky. Later, he was a visitor along the Powell and Clinch Rivers. He visited many times at George Yoakum's Station in Powell Valley, and at Sharp's Station south of the Clinch River in Big Valley.

    Near the close of the century, he went to England and Holland. On his return from Europe, he came to Knoxville, Tennessee. Shortly after 1800 he built a log structure near the juncture of Powell and Clinch Rivers to be used as a church and a school for his large family. The church, known as Mt. Moriah Methodist Church, was re-built at the same site three times before it was taken by the TVA in 1935.

    A family story said that William was given the family bible, in which all the family was listed, to safeguard. Another story indicated that Barbara was the last known one to have it.

    Henry was living in Campbell County, Tennessee in 1815, listed in John Grants Clinch River Ferry account book.

    In 1850, Henry was living with his son Daniel Webster and his wife Mary Ann in 16 Subdivision, Anderson County, Tennessee.

    Henry was buried in Mt. Moriah Cemetery, Anderson County Tennessee, now under Lake Norris, Tennessee. He was re-interred in 1935 in Bakers Forge Memorial Cemetery, La Follette, Campbell County, Tennessee where a new tombstone is placed:
