According to the 1850 census for Rutherford County, Tennessee, James B. Cavender ("James Cavender", “J.B. Cavender” & “James Benjamin Cavender”?) was listed as being born in Virginia, was then 52 years of age and thus born about 1798, that his wife Rebecca Cavender was age 42 and born in Tennessee about 1808. According to the 1860 census for Rutherford County, Tennessee, James B. Cavender was listed as a shoemaker 63 years of age, and thus born about 1798, and born in Virginia, whereas, Rebecca Cavender was listed as then being 53 years of age, and thus born about 1807 in Virginia. Their children were all born in Tennessee and at that time were: William Cavender age 20 and thus born about 1830 and who married a "Joicy"; John N. Cavender ("John Cavender" & “J.N. Cavender”) age 13 and thus born about 1837; Sarah Cavender age 11 and thus born about 1839; James Cavender age 9 and thus born about 1841; Sarah Cavender ("Rebecca Cavender") age 7 and thus born about 1843; and, Hugh Cavender age 2 in 1850 and thus born about 1848, and being age 11 and thus born about 1849.122 According to notations in the Bible of a Hugh Cavander ("Hugh Cavender"), which is on file in the Georgia Department of Archives and History, entitled "Daughters of the American Revolution-Georgia Society, Bible Records 1789-1970 by Mrs. Leonard G. DeLamar, it is stated that Hugh Cavendar was born on March 5, 1847, that he married Zilpha Ann Walker ("Zilpha Walker" & "Zilphia Walker"?) on October 8, 1867, and that he died on July 20, 1939 in Georgia. There is a very good possibility that he is the above-mentioned son of James B. Cavender ("James Cavender") who was the son of Eudaley James Cavender ("Eudaley Cavender") and was the grandson of the Hugh Cavender who died in Charlotte County, Virginia. It is further stated that Zilpha Walker was born on July 29, 1850, and died on November 15, 1942.

Sally Cavender died on December 16, 1843 at the age of 42 and left a large family according to a local newspaper report, and Stephen Cavender later married Matilda Bryum (“Matilda Bynum”?) about 1843 in Maury County, Tennessee. In the 1850 census for Lewis County, Tennessee, the Stephen Cavender family was listed as comprising Stephen Cavender age 52 and born in Virginia about 1798, his wife Matilda Cavender age 49 and born in North Carolina about 1801, and their children comprising; Margaret Cavender age 22 and born about 1828, Sarah Cavender age 20 and born about 1830, Stephen Cavender age 14 and born about 1836, Mary Cavender age 12 and born about 1838, Milly Cavender age 10 and born about 1840, and Caroline Bynum Cavender ("Caroline Cavender" & “C.B. Cavender”) age 17, born about 1833, and apparently born during a prior marriage of her mother who was then Matilda Bryum.122 It is to be noted that Lewis County, Tennessee was formed from parts of the counties of Maury County, Tennessee, Hickman County, Tennessee, Wayne County, Tennessee, and Lawrence County, Tennessee in 1843. The particular section given to Lewis County, Tennessee by Maury County, Tennessee was returned to Maury County, Tennessee in 1852. (3) Nancy Cavender was born about 1798 in Bedford, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, which apparently later became Hillsborough County, New Hampshire and later married a Joseph Manning of the same county. It is to be noted that on April 13, 1794, a Charles Cavender was born in Greenfield, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire to Charles Cavender and Eleanor Addison ("Elenore Addison"). Charles Cavender, Sr. apparently immigrated from Ireland via Newfoundland about 1775 at the age of 19 years.

They signed a petition to the General Assembly of the State of Tennessee requesting the establishment of a new county. Note the second person named John Cavender, Jr. who was born about 1790 to a John Cavender, who, in turn, was born to the John Cavender born about 1760 and fought in the Revolutionary War. 40 1799/09/16 Summer County, Tennessee, was reduced in size by the Tennessee State General Assembly and the new counties of Smith and Wilson and a new City to be named Rutherford, Tennessee were formed and adopted. 40 1799/10/26 Williamson County, Tennessee was formed from Davidson County, Tennessee. Davidson County, Tennessee was originally Davidson County, North Carolina prior to Tennessee becoming a state in 1796. Hunters and explorers came into this section as early as 1784 but most permanent settlement of the early settlers were not made until shortly before 1800. The Natchez Trace, an important pioneer road of the 1800's, runs through the western section of Williamson County, Tennessee. 53, 125 & 165 1799 (1) The first gold rush of western North Carolina.

Del. Vol. 87, pp 237.15 1800/09/05 Hannah Cavender married Thomas Downes ("Thomas Down" & "Thomas Downs") in Newbury, Essex County, Massachusetts. She was probably the same Hannah Dole Cavender who filed the intention to be married to James Cavender in Newburyport, Essex County, Massachusetts on on June 16, 1770. This particular James Cavender probably was killed in the Revolutionary War. The daughter of Thomas Downs and Hannah Downs , named Hannah Dole Down (“Hannah Down”, “Hannah Downs”?, “Hannah Downes? & “Dole Downs”?), married Ira Ricker and they had a daughter named Lucinda Ricker ("Lucy Ricker"?). 283 & 306 1800/09/30 William Cavenaugh ("William Cavender"?), John Thompson and Polly Dillingham ("Mary Dillingham" & "Mary Jane Dillingham"), both then living in Christian County, Kentucky (which includes the City of Hopkinsvile in Western Kentucky), were witnesses to the power of attorney dated October 30, 1800 which George Wilson Humphreys ("George Humphreys") of Pickering County, Mississippi granted to David Smith of Christian County, Kentucky with respect to the sale by George Humphreys of 500 acres of land in Hardin County, Kentucky on Buffalo Creek. 1800/12/12 John Cavender married Jane Collins in Aberdeen County, Scotland.399 1800 (1) DELAWARE: Robert Cavender family was then living in Kent County, Delaware in 1800 and at that time comprised 12001-10001-00.418 David Cavender family was then living in Sussex County, Delaware and then comprised 20301-20120-00.418 Amilia Cavender ("Amelia Cavender") was the head of the household in Kent County, Delaware which then comprised 10000-20010-00.
