He writes, “Five graves of the Daniel Simeon Lavender family are found adjacent to Route 62 in Morgan County, Tennessee; just a few miles east of the Fentress County line. They are very visible when approaching from the west; from the east they are hidden in a small alcove of trees.

“Daniel was born in 1776, Elizabeth in about 1779. They came to Morgan County after 1805. Daniel was a prominent citizen, donating land for the first County Seat, serving as Justice of the Peace and he operated a tavern near the site of these graves.

“Elizabeth’s maiden name is sometimes cited as Howard; I can find no evidence that this is true other than that the Howards were nearby and the families had a close relationship.”
