Is anyone familiar with this story, and does
anyone have anything toadd?: Just before the Civil War Christopher
FORD married ElizabethSWAN. The marriage didn't work out. There was
an ongoing domesticdispute between the SWANS and the FORDS about
custody of thedaughters of Chis and Elizabeth. One day in about 1862
the childrenof Chris and Elizabeth FORD were staying with FORD's
father, Dr. JohnFORD. Robert SWAN and some other SWAN family members
went to the FORDhouse, murdered Dr. FORD and ran off with Elizabeth
and thedaughters. They made their way north by fording a river and
stayed atthe old Potter Place in the area now known as the Catoosa
WildlifeManagement Area. The SWAN family was still covered with
blood. Theythen moved farther north to Sublimity Springs in Pulaski
Co, KY andestablished a new life. Robert SWAN returned to Cumberland
Co about11 yrs later and is buried at the Grassy Cove Methodist
Cemetery.
