Per Merrill Ledford:

In 1936, Ellis Smith, who was 78 years old at the time, made the following statement-- that John Ledford came to Cherokee county from Buncombe county sometime before the Indians left (in 1838) and settled on Licklog creek. John's children as well as Ellis could remember were William Ledford who married a Sanderson, John Ledford who married Sallie Israel, Amos Ledford who settled on Shooting Creek, Thomas Ledford who married Eliza Tanner, Samuel Ledford who married Phoebe Dunn, Center Ledford who settled on Sweetwater, Benjamin Ledford, Elizabeth Ledford who married William Leatherwood, and another daughter who married William Spring.
