Note: HI25
Note: (Research): In the Military Annals of TN - Confederate: Aaron M. Pinson killed at Peachtree Creek (near Atlanta) on July 20, 1864. He was in Company G of the 5th Tennessee Infantry. A. Pinson killed at Fort Donelson - Company G of the 50th Tennessee Infantry. Battle of Fort Donelson on February 14-15, 1862. (1) Pvt A. Pinson joined Co G, 50th Regt., Tennessee Infantry. On 26 Jan 1864 he appears on a muster roll at Tilton, GA and is listed as 40 years of age. (2) A Pinson, Co G, 50th Tennessee Infantry, appears on a register of Officers and Soldiers who were killed in battle or died of wounds or disease. When Deceased: Feby 13, 1862, at Fort Donelson, Tenn. (3) The Age would be several years off but that might just be a patriot falsifying his age at enlistment time. Or it could be an error in calculating his age from the 1860 U.S. Census, "Pinson, Arron, 44, farmer, cannot read or write." <=====> I think there are three possibilities to account for Aaron: 1. Son of Larkin Pinson who, I believe, appears in the 1820 and 1830 Montgomery county census listings. I have not been able to locate much information on Larkin. 2. Son of Marmaduke Pinson, a brother to Larkin, and he was also in Montgomery county. While Marmaduke is a possibility, I believe I have accounted for all of his sons (I am work now and do not have access to all of my notes). 3. Brother to Harvy Pinson, who appears in the 1840 Dickson County, TN census. If this is correct, then Aaron may be the son of Redding Pinson, who may also have been a member of the Harvy Dickson household. I have found some 1840 court records where Harvy appeared because of various encounters with the local sheriff. I believe I have at one time or another eliminated most of the other families in Tennessee at this time. Do you have a real good feel for when Aaron was actually born. I can't remember the exact numbers, but I seem to recall a significant difference in age from the 1850 to 1860 census. <=====> Wills, Giles County, Tennessee Drury Stoval, Gilford Dudley and other Giles County Men: Drury Stoval was a descendent of Bartholomew Stovall of eastern Virginia and may have been the son of John Stoval who died leaving a will in Granville County, North Carolina in 1781 in which he mentions the following legatees. Bartholomew Stoval, Josiah Stovall, Drury Stoval, Benjamin Stoval, John Stoval, George Stoval, and son-in-law Owen Griffin. John Stoval is also mentioned, son of Thomas Stoval, deceased, and son-in-law of Aaron Pinson. Nathan and Joel Pinson were canebrake cutters in what is now Lincoln County, Tennessee. [Pg 580] Anne Burton, the daughter of Thomas Burton and his wife, Susanna Allen, married a man named Bartholomew Stovall. Anne Burton and William Burton, who married Mary Parker and Mary Risby, were first cousins. The Pinston's and the Stovall's pushed west into Lunenburg County, and old man Aaron Pinston is mentioned in "The Journey To The Land Of Eden," by Carl William Burr in 1733. The will of Aaron Pinston appears on the records of Granville County, North Carolina, in which he names many of his children. This relationship between the Stovall's and the Pinsons (as it is called today) and the Owen Griffin's can be followed and has been followed by the compiler throughout the southern states. [Pg 643] <=====> I went back and started looking at my notes again last night about where Aaron Pinson fits in to the 'Pinson' world, and came up with the following: If we accept Aaron's age as being correct in the 1850 Census, 27 yrs., that would make him 39/40 in 1862 when he was killed at Fort Donelson. That closely matches the death documentation of the time. That would also make him 7 yrs. at the time of the 1830 Census. 1830 LINCOLN COUNTY,Tennessee CENSUS NAME COUNTY PAGE CENSUS CODE Pinson, Obediah LINC 242 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 - 0 0 0 2 0 0 1 M(50-60 yrs.) 2 F(15-20 yrs.)

Given that Aaron's father was born in Tennessee, and the location (Montgomery County), I just have to think that Larkin is the best fit given all the clues. I've to the library in Montgomery Co. and Nashville and I can't find a 'smoking gun,' but in my gut I feel that I'm right. <=====> "Aaron M. Pinson killed at Peachtree Creek (near Atlanta) on July 20, 1864. He was in Company G of the 5th Tennessee Infantry." [He] could possibly be my wife's 3rd great grand uncle Aaron Martin Pinson. He was he brother of Thadeus Jenkins Pinson, 20th TN Cavalry, Co. E (wounded at Tishomingo Creek and died of smallpox in 1863) and Thomas Marian Pinson, also 20th TN Cavalry, Co. E. We have no family records of what happened to him (Thomas). Our Aaron was born 1842 and died 1864 near Atlanta, but other than that we know nothing else. he was the son of Isaac M. and Rebecca Pinson. If you happen to know anything more about the three men mentioned or any other Henry/Carroll Co. TN Pinsons we would much appreciate it, especially information about service in the Confederate military. Thanks Ray Elkins
