Serrul is the oldest ancestor known as ours. He was
born in 1765 at the White Indian Reserve in Granville County, North Carolina.
On November 20, 1785, he married Susannah Lankford in Granville County and
appears in the 1800 Johnson County, North Carolina census with five males and
five females.
By 1830 the family
is in Bedford County, Tennessee, an area that became Marshall County in 1836.
Some researchers say Serrul was the Cherokee Indian
known as Eagle in Early 1800 migration rolls.
Susannah is the
daughter of Henry and Catherine Williams Lankford of North Carolina said to be
from Virginia originally. She died in Marshall County, Tennessee before August
1838 when Serrul married Nancy Ann Haynes Noblin Mount, widow of Harris Mount. Ten children are noted
in the 1843 will of Serrul; Ann married Benjamin Pyland; Sion, believed to be
Wiley Sion; Mahalah "Aley" married Thomas Bloodworth;
