Seeking information on the BRACKETT and WHITESIDE families living in Shelby county in 1800. John BRACKETT and wife (possibly Phebe DAVIDSON). John died in 1818. A Phebe appeared in the census as head of household in th 1820 census. A John and Phoebe (b. 1763, whose parents were Joshua DAVIDSON and Sarah OWEN) were married in Prince Edward County, VA in 1795. Isaac WHITESIDE visited relatives living in Shelby County while "on his way to join other WHITESIDE families in IL, and remained there the rest of his life."
