    Notes:

    One Samuel McTeer was coroner of Monroe County, Tennessee, in May 1824, but it
    is not clear whether it was this or some other.

    In the 1830 census of Blount County Samuel McTerr aged 30-40 was listed with a
    wife aged 20-30, one son under five years, three daughters, two 5-10 and one
    under five years.

    On 13 February 1832 Samuel McTeer of Blount County, for $300, conveyed to James
    Henry of Blount County, 133 acres on Bakers Creek in Blount County, land
    granted to John Ewing, adjoining Robert Boyd, James Scott and Robert Bogle,
    Witnesses: R. Bogle, John allen. On 12 November 1840 this land was surveyed
    as 160 acres, and the deed acknowledged by the witness R. Bogle on 5 February
    1849 and again on 24 March 1858 by the Clerk who identified the handwriting of
    John Allen, then deceased, was filed on 25 March 1858.

    Between the date of this deed and the date on Robert Bogle's acknowledgement
    the grantor Samuel McTeer had moved away from East Tennessee. He probably left
    soon after the Blount County marriage of his oldest daughter, Mary Jane, on 22
    September 1842.

    On 10 December 1857 Samuel McTeer took up government land in T22 N, R 3 E,
    Downs Township, McLean County, Illinois, and both Samuel McTeer and S. W.
    McTeer were listed as residents there in 1859-1860.

    In the 1860 census of Downs Township, McLean County, Samuel Matear aged 60 was
    head of a household which included his wife Isabel aged 50 as well as Henry
    Cooper aged 45 and William Cooper aged 46 years; all four were born in
    Tennessee.

    Samuel McTeer died at the home of his daughter Mary Delzell.

  6. 40.  Montgomery McTeer Descendancy chart to this point (12.Mary3, 2.Samuel2, 1.Mary1) was born 30 Apr 1811, Blount County, Tennessee; died 4 Nov 1876, Blount County, Tennessee; was buried Bakers Creek Cemetery, Blount County, Tennessee.

    Notes:

    Montgomery McTeer was a man of varied interests. During the 1840s and 1850s he
    owned a hotel in Maryville, which was under the management of his
    brother-in-law, Frank Marion Hood. Ealier he had owned a printing press and a
    supply of cabinet makers tools. In the 1850 census of Blount County, 1st Civil
    District, he was listed as a millwright.

    During the Civil War the State of Tennessee was officially part of the
    Confederacy, yet most of the people living in East Tennesse were strong
    adherents to the Union cause. Under the circumstances Blount County
    communities were subject to frequent invasions and counterinvasions; Maryville
    sometimes had scouting parties of both sides in town on the same day.
    Destruction of local property was inevitable, and it was equally inevitable that
    there would be political efforts to obtain compensation. Following the close
    of hostilities the Blount County Court appointed Montgomery McTeer to make out
    the county's claim against the United States Government for damage done to the
    court house by Federal soldiers, "on the understanding that the said McTeer is
    to receive ten percent of whatever he recovers but in case of no recovery, no
    pay."

    In May 1877 Mrs. Martha McTeer, widow of Montgomery McTeer, was allowed one
    year's support from her husband's estate.

    The will of Martha W. McTeer, written 22 April 1893, probated 28 January 1898,
    bequeathed to the youngest child of son S. B. McTeer "which shall be living at
    my decease" land in the Sixth District, Blount County, 201 acres "where S. B.
    McTeer now lives", with the proviso that "S. B. McTeer and his present wife
    Betty shall live there their lifetime and have full control of the property."
    All personal property to be divided equally between two children, S. B. McTeer
    and Harriet C. Henry. Executor: Will A. McTeer.

    On 8 September 1901 Will A. McTeer was appointed Executor of the estate of
    Martha W. McTeer deceased; bond was for $250 with F. H. Lannon as surety.
    Inventory mentions a 201 acre farm in the 6th Civil District "where S. B.
    McTeer her son now lives."

    Notes:

    On 4 February 1858 William McTeer and wife Margaret J. McTeer of Knox County,
    Tennessee, deeded to W. S. Porter of Blount County, Tennessee, for $657.40,
    lands in the 8th Civil District, Blount County, formerly owned by Joseph
    Tedford.

    In youth William McTeer was apprenticed to a tailor; later he became a merchant
    and hotel keeper in Maryville. He served as Postmaster there, as Trustee for
    Blount County, and as major of the local militia.

    In the 1850 census of Blount County, 9th Civil District, William McTeer aged 34
    years was listed as a tailor, with wife Margaret aged 33 years, and six
    children aged one to twelve years. In addition to the McTeer family, this
    household included four more "tailors" as well as other tradesmen and lodgers
    to a total of 27 persons.

    About the close of the Civil War William and his family moved to Baltimore,
    Maryland, where they remained until 1876, when they returned to Knoxville,
    Tennessee, and were thereafter engaged in the wholesale clothing business.
    Much information on activities and descendants is abstracted from newspaper
    clippings filed under the name McTeer in the McClung Collection, Lawson-McGhee
    Library.
