Census: 1820 Davidson County, Tennessee 3
Occupation: Surveyor
Note:
The earliest record found in Halifax Co. Va. of Samuel Weakley was when he was a witness to a deed on Sept. 28, 1784, when his brother Thomas sold a 56A tract of land on Brush. Cr. He was then only a boy of 16 years of age, but probably his signature at that age was OK, since this was almost a family affair, for the other two witnesses were Robert and William Weakley. He appears again as a witness on July 18, 1787.
Samuel came to the Cumberland settlement in 1787 and he was on a Davidson Co. jury on April 9, 1788 and again in 1789 and at subsequent times.... There is no doubt of the fact that Samuel made many trips back to Halifax Co. Va. for we find his name in the records of both Dav. County and Halifax Co. Va. during the period of 1790-1793....
Samuel bought his first land on Oct. 7, 1791, when he purchased a 213 Acre tract on the East Fork of Stone's River, near the site of the present Woodbury, Cannon Co. Tenn, and on May 25, 1795 when he purchased a 213 Acre tract adjoining the above tract.
