THOMAS, 2 ATCHLEY was born in the American Colonies near "New
Brunswick" what is now known as Middlesex County, New Jersey.
The French and Indian War (in Europe called "Seven
Year's" War) was declared by Britain the next year on 18 May
1756. THOMAS ATCHLEY was less than a year old at this time. The
"Peace of Paris" (1763) ended the Seven Year's war when
THOMAS ATCHLEY was 8 years of age. This War established Britain
as the world's dominant colonial power.

THOMAS ATCHLEY MARRIES:
At the age of 25 yrs. about 1780, in Loudoun County, Virginia THOMAS
ATCHLEY married the young 16 years of age Miss LYDIA RICHARDS;
b. 18 Aug. 1762; d. 03 Aug. 1850, at the age of 87 years, 11 months
and 15 days at Sevier Co., Tenn.; She is buried in the Adler
Branch Cemetery, Sevier Co., Tenn.; She was the daughter of ISAAC
RICHARDS and Wife Unknown; They first relocated to Botetourt
County, Virginia, then about 1 1786 they relocated to Sevier Co.,
Tenn. His home was located in Alder Branch Community, north of
Sevierville, Tn.
After harvest time, year 1786, THOMAS ATCHLEY, his wife LYDIA,
(RICHARDS) ATCHLEY and their three small daughters left Botetourt
County in Virginia, bound for the fertile land located on Alder
Branch, a Tributary of French Broad River, in the new Sevier
County, State of Franklin. 2 pg157
In 1 & 2 pg. 157-8 this date 1786 was listed in
"Family History of Atchley", by Mrs. Maud Horn. This
writer does NOT think it is correct. Son ISAAC, 1 ATCHLEY was
born 1787, Va. and Son 5th child BENJAMIN ATCHLEY was born 1790,
TN., thus the relocation must be between 1787 and 1790 See the
Chapter on Son ISAAC, 1 ATCHLEY for continuation...prs.
INDIAN WAR of 1794 ?
It has been reported that THOMAS ATCHLEY served in the "Indian
War of 1794", but no records have been found todate. This writer
does not know this war. The "French & Indian War" was Pre-
Revolution 1754 to 1763. The Post-Revolution war of the
"Indian War was from 1817 to 1858. THOMAS ATCHLEY would have
been 62 years of age in 1817...prs

serving some 2 months and 18 days until the 23rd. of Dec. 1813.
He was in Captain SIMEON PERRY'S Company of the "Mounted

by Major General JOHN COCKE. The Volunteers were of the Regiment
Command of Colonel SAMUEL WEAR of the United States. The War of
1812 - (18 Jun. 1812 to 24 Dec. 1814) came only 30 years after
the end of the American Revolution. (See Appendix on Thomas
Atchley - War of 1812)
In the 1820 Census of Manufactures, for Sevier Co., TN, we find
the 65 year old THOMAS, 2 ATCHLEY or his 24 year old Son THOMAS,
4 ATCHLEY as Owner and Operator of a Distillery. The raw
material used were some 250 bushels of Corn & Ry at a cost
of $175 which he used in his Stills & Tubbs and sold for
$325. Tn the General Remarks he stated that The Stills were
in operation, but was not in demand. 43
FOUNDER OF THE ALDER BRANCH BAPTIST CHURCH:
THOMAS ATCHLEY was one of the founders of the "Alder Branch Baptist"
Church. The church was organized in his dwelling house in 1830,
when he was 75 years old. The following was copied from the
"Minutes" of the Alder Branch Baptist Church. (In 1970 it
was in the possession of Mrs. WILL DUDLEY, Alder Branch, Sevier
Co., Tn.)
Their is a Record in the Primitive Baptist Church of
Christ, State of Tennessee, Providence Meeting House for
Jefferson County, TN; Dated Saturday March 03, 1830, which List
some of the THOMAS, 2 ATCHLEY family members:
Received a petition from the lower members of the
church praying the privilege of holding a church meeting or arm
of the church, which is granted.
THOMAS ATCHLEY, Sr. and wife LIDY (RICHARDS) ATCHLEY
BENJAMIN ATCHLEY and wife MARTHA (CHAMBERS) ATCHLEY
JOHN LINDSEY and wife ELIZABETH (ATCHLEY) LINDSEY
THOMAS ATCHLEY, Jr. and wife SALY (Unknown)
JOSHUAY ATCHLEY and wife ELIZABETH (HARDIN) ATCHLEY
MARTIN HAGARD and wife MILEY (HARDIN) HAGARD
On Saturday July 03, 1830, the Primitive Baptist Church of
Christ; State of Tennessee, Providence Meeting House,
Jefferson County, TN. states:
The arm of this church at the "Alder Branch Meeting"
house offered a petition to this church praying the privilege of becoming
a constituted church was granted and thereupon the church appointed
Brothers JAMES WOOD, JONATHAN ELLISON and SAMUEL CATLETT to dismiss
them from this church that they might become a constituted church
at their next August meeting and the church also appointed
RICHARD WOODS, BOWERS and PATE for the purpose of constituting
said church.
LISTED IN THE 1830 CENSUS:
Since the creation of Sevier Counter in 1794, from part of Jefferson
County, no territory has been removed from Sevier County except a
few minor boundary changes. With the exception of the Grainger County
(Middle Tennessee) for 1810, there is no surviving population schedule
for East Tennessee county before 1830. The public records of Sevier
County were almost completely destroyed by fire on 26th. March
1856.
THOMAS, 2 ATCHLEY was 75 years old at the time of the 1830 Census
for Sevier County, Tennessee. His wife LYDIA (RICHARDS) ATCHLEY
was 66 years of age; his sons ISAAC, BENJAMIN, JOSHUA, THOMAS JR.
and youngest son NOAH all had farms and their own family. They
were all listed as head of their own household. All of his
daughters were over 28 yrs of age and can be assume that they
were married and with their own families. They were living next
(F.G. 27) SAMUEL ROBERTSON and adjoining (F.G. 2) son NOAH
ATCHLEY families; Due to the fact that this 1830 Census does NOT
list the relationship to the "Head of Household, their was a
female between 60 and 70, a male & female between 15 & 20, and a
female under 5 years of age which cannot be identified. (1830
Sevier Co., Tn. Census, M-19, State Reel 178, Page 104, Line 1

THOMAS, 2 ATCHLEY died on 11 Oct. 1836, at the age of 80 years
and is buried in the Alder Branch Cemetery, Sevier Co.,
TN. He has a Military headstone which states:

THOMAS, 2 and LYDIA (RICHARDS) ATCHLEY lay side by side in the
beautiful old Alder Branch Cemetery, located near the Baptist
Church of that name. A joint monumental stone marks their last
resting place. In a interview with a Mr. JAMES ATCHLEY at the

stated that "the monument mentioned had been erected by a
