    Notes:

    GEORGE WASHINGTON3 ARNN SR (Abraham2 Aron Sr, Jacob1 Aaron)
    was born in 1772 in Pittsylvania, Virginia. He died on 11
    Jul 1855 in Henry, Tennessee. He married SARAH WALKER on 10
    Dec 1797 in Pittsylvania, Virginia, daughter of Elisha
    Walker and Judith Kirby. She was born in 1783 in
    Pittsylvania, Virginia. She died on 21 Jun 1849 in Henry,
    Tennessee. Notes for George Washington Arnn Sr: from LA:
    Identified in land tax records 1805 as "George W. Aron".
    According to Mrs. McRee of MI, a descendent, her great
    grandfather was named George Washington Aron and Mary Arnn
    who married George Sr's son Henry was his mother. No doubt
    the latter George Washington Aron was named after his
    grandfather. HP/RAC identifies him as George M. Aaron
    Deed dated 17 Jul 1797 - purchased 164 acres on Sandy River
    from Henry and Elizabeth Warren for 24 pounds. Listed in
    the land tax records with this acreage until 20 Oct 1800
    when he buys 120 acres from Abraham Aaron, Jr. for $100.
    This land was located on Turkey Cock Creek. [DB 12, p. 212,
    Chatham - LA, p. 36, ref 29] Deed recorded 14 May 1807 -
    bought 100 acres from Abraham Sr. This was part of a 220
    acre plot surveyed 9 Apr 1801. Land located on branches of
    Sandy River and Turkey Cock Creek - paid his father 30
    shillings. By 1829 he had extensive holdings [see LA, p.
    34]; sold all remaining land in 1829. George left Virginia
    and moved to Henry County Tennessee about 1830. An
    inventory of his property is under the name of George Arun.
    HP/RAC lists him as George M. Aaron, Sr. Please contact me
    at jknight@boone.net for further information.
    Notes for Sarah Walker:

    LA: "George married Sarah Walker 10 Dec 1797. She was the
    daughter of Elisha Walker and sister to Isaac Arnn's first
    Wife, Polly. Sarah was a little younger than George; the
    1820 census listing him as '45 years and afterward'. The
    1820 census of Pittsylvania County, Virginia lists 'one
    free white female between 26-45'. This is most likely
    Sarah...Sarah probably went by the nickname Sally...A note
    in a son's [Abihu] Bible stated her death..." LA mentions a
    letter from George and Sally Arnn living in Henry County,
    Tennessee to their sons Henry and George and others back in
    Virginia. This would indicate that spelling of the name was
    Arnn bef 1849.
    George Washington Arnn Sr and Sarah Walker had the
    following children:
    i. HENRY CLAY4 ARNN was born in 1799 in Pittsylvania,

    ii. JOHN ARNN was born about 1803 in Pittsylvania,
    Virginia, USA. He died in 1830 (died from gunshot).
    Notes for John Arnn:
    Per LA - "In the letter ...March 1830 Sally or Sarah [her
    real name] mentions a boy John who was killed and another
    boy William and a child Kit." It is assumed that they were
    also children. No other record has been found of William or
    Kit.
