Additional Comments:
These are the only known documents that names Archibald Sloan's sons and son-in-laws. Marriage records have been found to confirm the daughters Jean Sloan Jackson, Polly Sloan Miller, Sarah Sloan Boyd and Betsy Sloan Brown.

Cornelius Miller is referred to as Cullinus Miller in other documents. The Andrew Jackson mentioned is not the President Andrew Jackson, but believed to be a cousin.

Alexander is believed to have married Cullinus Miller's sister, relocated to Kentucky then Missouri. Several records indicate his wife to be a Carson. possibly two wives.

David relocated to Kentucky, Missouri then Texas.

Robert relocated to Georgia.

James may have relocated to Mississippi, no marriage record found.

Sarah Sloan Boyd, nothing is known, may have relocated to Missouri.

Children John, William, Jean Jackson, Polly Miller and Betsy Brown appear to have died there in East TN.

An 1880 letter by William Sloan Campbell implies there may have been another daughter that m. Samuel Miller. A Samuel Miller did marry a Margaret Sloan, but it's likely that this Margaret Sloan is actually his grand daughter. The confusion continues!

County. On Sunday morning, June 18, 1780, he, along with Davidson,
Sharpe, Falls and Houston joined other troops from the Catawba Valley.
The Tories outnumber them 3 to 1, but a retreat would encourage the
Tories. They decided to march throughout the night and surprise the
Tories at daybreak. At the end of fierce fighting, some with swords,
about 70 were lost by the Patriots, including George and Andrew Davidson
and Capt. John Sloan. A simple marker designates the graves of those who
fell on the Battle of Ramsour's Mill. on Jun 20, 1780. Six Whig
