  She was born after the father of rest of children was dead.
  The bastardly record starts in Knoxville, TN after 1820. It is unknown as to why she kept the last name Fleshart. She uses it on the marriage record when she is married at sister Susannah house. Is she Mary's daughter or one of the other sisters child? Or is she from another relationship Elizabeth had after Francis, Sr. dies.
 Perhaps she is a daughter of Francis Sr, brother.....
 She always said she only went to school for 3 weeks and she was an orphan. Sounds like family died suddenly and she was shipped off....
  James Dardis is named as guardian of the other children when land is sold in 1820. He is married and has another family. He is probably only involved because he was one of three men whose names are on the estate bond ($1500) with Elizabeth when Francis dies in 1809. James is also named as guardian of the other children when a lot on Front Street in Knoxville is sold. Jane is never listed. James Dardis was a very prominent businessman in Knoxville at the time

 Jane Fleshart had three sisters: Elizabeth, Susan, and Caroline.The
 Flesharts were of German or Dutch descent. Jane's daughter, Adelaide
 Ellen Noel Wolfolk wrote extensively about Jane in a piece called "Mother
 Jane". Why does Dr. H.D. Wysong say Jane was born about 1809, 1810?
 ******************
  In a letter I wrote Donna Jun 2009, my thoughts.
 Just looked up the census for most of my Jane Fleshart and Ephraim's children. Pretty unanimous she was born in Tennessee so I am back to square one with who her daddy is. But sometimes her birthplace was put as Germany. Just like the head stone we got for Elizabeth Fleshart Watterson that says "my German Wife" or something like that. I'd say the Flesharts spoke German in the house AND were German, not Dutch as has been suggested by some. I'd also think old Papa Franz Fleshart was a recent immigrant, not one here for a couple of generations....
 She wrote back
 Well, there are a couple of immigrants, Wilhelm Fleischhut and Henrich Fleischhut, who both came to America in 1776 and I suspect one of them was the father of Frantz. Their children would have spoken German and the Wysongs were German so I can sure see Frantz & Elizabeth's children picking it up and speaking English with a German accent.

 Written by Ellen Noel Woolfolk
  Chapter VIIII
  “We used to watch the opening of the missionary boxes with great interest and curiosity. After the box had been brought in and set in the middle of the floor, there was a great scampering among the children for the hatchet and a chisel. Then when the lid was off, my husband from his low chair lifted out each article, and after brief inspection, handed it to me. From my hands it went in turn to each of the children, beginning at the oldest. No second article was taken out until the one preceding it had received its due share of approval from every member of the family. One box, I remember, contained an album quilt beautifully finished, with the name on each square of the one who had pieced it. There were some grand names on that quilt. Once a quilt came with a label on which was written, ‘Pieced by Mrs. Noah Webster, upwards of eighty years old - now a saint in glory’.”
 “Oh, grandmother, Grandmother”, cried a chorus of voices, “where is it now?”
 “It was worn out long ago.”
 “Oh, Mother Jane, how could you profane such a relic?”
 “I’d give a great deal to have it again”, said Mother Jane, “but we needed it. It covered my little ones, and no doubt fulfilled its mission. It was pieced of calico, not quite new, and was quite pretty. Calico was calico in those days. We wore homespun.”
 “The best missionary box we ever had was sent by a wealthy lady in Boston. It contained everything we could possibly need, even to a paper of crushed sugar, something very rare in those days. We only used it in our tea. Our white sugar, when we had any, was the kind we call loaf sugar, and that was scarce also. I remember well an old lady we used to visit, who kept the sugar-bowl in her lap at meal times, and before she doled out the precious lumps, always asked if we would take long sweating or short sweetening.”
 “And what did she mean, pray?”
 “The long sweetening was honey, too often used, and the short sweetening was sugar. But as I said, the box contained everything neatly packed that we could need, yet held nothing superfluous. It was like a young store. There were nice warm blankets and bed-spreads, and suitable clothing for each member of the family. We learned afterward that the name and age of everyone had been given her by our dear Dr. Bullard, of blessed memory, who was well acquainted with us, and knew our needs. She had asked him for the name of some especially needy and deserving home missionary, saying that the time was short, she was growing old, and wanted to do what she could before she passed away from earth. Dear good woman! The buying and packing the contents of that box must have been a labor of time and patience, as well as of love. There was even a nice roll of bandages in it for your grandfather’s sore foot, and there was a box of quinine. How thankful we were to get it, as we all had the chills, and were fifteen miles from a doctor! The packing box served us as a table for months, as we had just moved to a new place, and your Grandfather had not yet been able to make our furniture.”
 “She wrote a us a letter, telling us to put our things away, using them only as they were needed, and say nothing about them, for fear some of our parishioners might envy us their possession, or think we had too much. She must have had experience in such things. Months afterward, when the dear woman passed from earth, I found in the bottom of a little box containing needles and thread and buttons, a ten dollar gold piece. Oh, how pleased and touched we all were, and how we longed to thank, again and again, the generous donor. Many, oh very many long years have passed, and I have lived to see the desires of my heart and to know the abundance that this world can give, yet I have never forgotten that perfect box. I want my children and my children’s children to remember it also. The Home Missionary is still abroad in the land. The Foreign Missionary is abroad in other lands. Many of them, alas, know what it is to suffer and be strong. Do not forget them in the plenitude of your own unnumbered blessings. They have a right to your love, your sympathy, and your material aid.”
  Jane Asbereen Fleshart Noel was a wife of Ephraim P. Noel a Presbyterian minister. His calling was into the unpopulated areas of the new west of Illinois and Missouri. Often leaving her alone to care for the family by herself on the frontier.
