| Notes |
- During the War of 1812, John served in Capt. Hallum's Company, 39th TN Regiment, and was in the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, which was fought in 1814 in what is now Talapoosa County, Alabama. This battle effectively ended the Creek Wars and opened Alabama up for settlement. He received bounty land
in White County for his military service and applied for a pension in 1871, but died that August. His second wife, Mahala, applied for a widow's pension in 1873, which was approved. In 1880, Mahala Goodman Steele was found living in the household of her sister-in-law, Amanda Steele Trulove and her
husband, Joshua Trulove. (Willie Smith)
