A picture of Sevier Petty was found at the Pioneer Village in Corsicana. They allowed my sister, Carey, and I to take a picture. George Valentine Petty, his wife, and 10 children arrived from Tennessee around 1846, just as Texas became a state. Navarro County was Indian Territory. Sevier was the last and only child of George and Marry Redden Petty’s children born in Texas. It was argued in the area that Sevier was the first white child born in Navarro County in 1850. Story goes another child born the same day as Sevier was declared the first white child born in Navarro County. There was much dispute and that story was passed down to my Dad, his grandson, and the family always believed Sevier was the first.
Everyone called him Sevier. We thought he was named after a town in Tennessee but it was his maternal grandfather’s middle name, John Sevier Redden, born 1700’s in Georgia. Sevier was probably a maiden name of John Redden’s mother but this is not known for sure. Jasper Sevier was married twice and the father of a total of 18 children.

"I have James Darwin Petty listed both as a carpenter and as an engineer. He married about 1829 in Hickman Co., TN, to Unity Chisenhall and they made their home in Dickson Co., TN, where their first five children were born. Some time after the birth of Arabella Petty, James decided to move to Nashville, Davidson Co., TN, where their daughter Tennessee Petty was born about 1845 and four years later in 1849 another son, James D. Petty Jr. joined the family. According to Frances Corcoran, during this same period James and Unity Petty would lose their two eldest children to illness in January 1847, Sarah, died age 17, to “Dropsy of heart” and Mary Jane, died age 11, to “Lockjaw” (Tetanus). After this tragic loss, little did the family realise that worse would follow when most of the family was struck down by a cholera epidemic in July 1850 in Davidson Co., TN, and within days of the illness Unity Petty along with the four youngest children died leaving just James Darwin Petty and his son Columbus as survivors. Six months later at the beginning of 1851, James Darwin Petty married his cousin, Mahala Petty, and she would bear him one additional son, Millard Fillmore Petty."
