  1. 9.  John Henninger ReaganJohn Henninger Reagan Descendancy chart to this point (6.Elizabeth3, 2.Sarah2, 1.1) was born 8 Oct 1818, Gatlinburg, Sevier County, Tennessee; died 6 Mar 1905, Palestine, Anderson County, Texas; was buried East Hill Cemetery, Palestine, Anderson County, Texas.

    Notes:

    John H. left Tennessee in 1839 for Texas, then a Republic, and settled in the eastern portion of the state where he resided until his death. Without a doubt, John H. Reagan is still Gatlinburg's most illustrious son.

    A brief summary of his accomplishments includes: surveyor of public lands in Texas; lawyer, admitted to the bar in 1846; state representative 1847-1849; district judge, 1852-1857; Representative to U. S. Congress, 1857-1861; delegate to Secession Convention of Texas in 1861; Postmaster General of Confederacy; acting Secretary of Confederacy. In 1875 he was a member of the State Constitutional Convention; U.S. Representative, 1875-1887; U. S. Senator from Texas, 1887-1891; a member of State Railroad Comission, served as chairman 1897-1903.

    John was imprisoned after the Civil War presumably for his high post in the Confederacy.

    John H. returned to his birth place only once, 22 August 1900, after sixty-three years absence. He and his wife received a heartwarming reception in Sevierville where he spoke at the Courthouse and received friends at a reception later. He spent two days visiting with his cousins in Gatlinburg.

    John H. Reagan reared his first wife's two sons.
