In 1776, William Bean commenced in settling in Boonsboro, Tennessee where he would continue to live the majority, if not the rest of his life. The area around where William Bean attracted new settlers, where they too would find themselves living in the local communities. Where there are people, there are forms of trade.
The people that are in the local vicinity are going to be trading, which will eventually end up increasingly far away from Boonsboro, Tennessee, in addition to attracting other traders and or individuals to Boonsboro, Tennessee. On May 16, 1771, located on the grounds of Piedmont, North Carolina, Regulators were dualing with the North Carolina Militia. Numerous individuals were predicting the specific time for when disagreements, political protest, and riots would eventually turn into armed conflict. It only took a handful of decades until tension began to increase.
Piedmont farmers began to feel as if they were being overtaxed, paying incredibly outrageous fees to the local sheriffs, and colonial government. Sometime in 1772, the Watuagans were found beyond the boundary of any organized government. The Watuagans created the Watauga Association in 1772. There was a group of white settlers who worked together to create a form of laws for their settlement. The laws the the Watuagans made correlated with Virginia’s laws. There was a specific document named the Watauga Compact and in the folder is where recording legal documents, land titles, and even lawbreakers would be kept.
On March 19, 1775, an extraordinary real estate transaction, which goes by the name of Transylvania Purchase would take place. Whilst a handful of days have passed, Richard Henderson from North Carolina has reached succession in securing the agreement in which the Cherokee shall trade their claim of all to Cumberland River Valley and the majority of Kentucky in exchange for ten thousand pounds worth of traded good items. Over a portion of time, Virginia and North Carolina decided to contribute to the Transylvania Purchase, but there still lied significant consequences for the Watuagans. On the evening before October 25th, 1775, there was a man who went by the name of Mr.Hewes and he was from North Carolina.
Mr.Hews was introduced to “Namesake” and John Adams, who were from “that colony.” Mr. Hewes was an associate with Mr.Henderson, who has been one of the Associate Judges from North Carolina, furthermore, the President of the Convention in Transylvania. Such is so that the Proprietors had no permit from the Crown in addition to any other colony that was within the limitations of the state of Virginia and North Carolina. All in all, how does this tie up any loose ends? We know that the British Government made the decision to make the American colonies pay a large sum of war debt from back in the French and Indian War days, which they were not happy about at all.
Throughout many other forms of “Acts” such as the Stamp Act, Sugar Act, etc, the British continued to collect taxes. This leads back to March 19th, 1775. What would have happened if that did not happen? Then what would the outcome be? Other parts in the timeline of the Revolutionary War have a hard time explaining what or how this would have affected the course of the New World then leading to the Revolutionary War, but it is somewhat easy to say that there would have been forms of controversy between states or even all the American Colonies, in addition to the British.
