1 NOTE Different groups of Testers immigrated from Sussex, England beginning in the
2 CONT late 1700's up to the late 1800's.  A large number of the early comers
2 CONT settled in the mountains of North Carolina.  Later immigrations settled in
2 CONT Ohio and other areas.  Watauga Co., NC history book has a lot of information
2 CONT on the families of that area.  Even today there are a lot of Testers in that
2 CONT particular country.  Boone, Nc is the county seat and the Chief of Police is
2 CONT a Tester.
2 CONT Back in the early 1800's in the mountains of Tennessee and North carolina,
2 CONT many Cherokee married into the white communities.  This probably saved them
2 CONT from being removed forcibly by the government in the 1830's Trail of Tears
2 CONT march.  Many Cherokee were also able to hide in the Appalachian Mountains.
