Uriah Allison Council^[1]

1807 - 1851  (43 years)

• Name	Uriah Allison Council
  Born	9 Aug 1807	Knox Co., Tennessee   [2]
  	Findagrave says he was born in Knox Co., Tennessee. I tend to believe this since his family lived in Knox at this point. Some the old books say Greene, but that has to be wrong.
  Gender	Male

  	appears in 1830 property tax roll

  	I am skeptical of Findagrave. It says that he died in the Civil War by his own side, but then says he died in 1851, 10 years before the war broke out.

• Notes

  Some accounts say he was born in Greene Co., TN, others in Knox Co.TN. PARENTS: could have been from TN or AL Census says he was from TN, Sarah Council's death certificate says he was from Alabama. It appears that Uriah died fairly early, leaving a wife with children. They then moved with his parents on to Arkansas. Based on the fact that Uriah's father is in Knox Co. in 1811, I might expect to find his birth there, or in Roane County where his parents were married. DEED: Uriah Allison Council (U.A. Council) bought land in Roane Co.,Tennessee. Deed is in Book G, p. 47.
