Wm. Donnelly, son of Robt. Donnelly, was born in Albermarle Co., Va on 2-15-1792. He enlisted at Wilkesboro, N.C. & served in the War of 1812 with McClains Regiment. Presumably he settled near Taylorsville, JCT in 1816 at the time his father did. He lived on Doe Cr. several years, was a farmer, trader & held county offices. Later he moved to Vincennes, Ind. by wagon where he remained for 5 years. Because of his wife's health he moved to Lee Co. in S.W. Va. where he remained for several years and accumulated considerable property. His half-brother, Geo. Brown had an iron forge at Pandora and induced Wm. to return to JCT and buy a half interest. Later they had a law suit and Brown won the suit and got the forge. Soon after Wm. returned to JCT he was taken ill and was an invalid for 4 years. He died 2-16-1842 near Taylorsville and was buried in the McQueen cemetery on the farm later owned by E.E. Butler. The exact spot being unknown, a marker was placed in the Mtn. City where many of his descendants are buried.

William Donnelly was born in Albemarle County, Virginia, February 15, 1792. He was a young man of about twenty-one years of age when the War of 1812 broke out and he entered into the service of his Country. Part of his time was spent at Norfolk, Virginia. He remained in the Service until the close of the War, then came and settled in Carter County with his parents and other members of his family. He married Sarah McQueen, daughter of William and Sarah (sic) [ed.note
her name was Rebecca] Gwyn McQueen, February 26, 1824.
Seven children were born to this union, two girls and five boys. The names of the children are: Richard A., William Kindrick, Rebekah J., Nancy A., Robert H.M., John M. and James C. All seven children lived to a ripe old age.
William was a farmer and trader; held some County offices and had some interest in an Iron Forge at Pandora, this County. He at one time went to Vincines, Indiana, where he remained for five years but his wife became afflicted with chills and fever and he had to return to Lee County, Virginia. He remained there for a number of years and accumulated property rapidly. His half brother, George Brown, owned the Forge previously referred to and kept writing and insisting that William come and buy a [illegible] interest in the business, which he did. It seems that after a while Brown, who is said to have been a very contentious man, tried in some way to take advantage of William. They became involved in law-suits which broke them both up. William was taken sick soon afterwards and four years he was an invalid and never able to gain what he had lost. He died February 16, 1842, in his fifty-first year, near Mountain City and buried in the old McQueen Cemetery [Robinson-Blankenbeckler Cemetery], is now a part of the Ed Butler farm, about
three miles from town.

  Notes for WILLIAM KENDRICK DONNELLY:
http://www.tiac.net/users/mkatzman/jct/johnevnt.html
Donnelly, William Kendrick (1827-1921) House, 40th General Assembly 1877-1879; Republican. Born at Johnson County, son of William and Sarah McQueen Donnelly. Married at Taylorsville August 31, 1865 Rachel Alice Moore Kiser, daughter of Green and Sarah Shoun Moore. Served as Constable in 1854.

William Kindrick Donnelly, second son of William Donnelly, was born January 14, 1827, near Mountain City and died July 3, 1921, being at the time of his death, ninety-four years and six months of age. He married a young widow, Alice Moore Kiser, daughter of Greene and Sarah Shoun Moore, August 31, 1865. To this union ten children born. Eight are still living.

From the two sons of Robert Donnelly, originally of Dublin, Ireland, Richard and William, have descended the large Donnelly connection, which is widely and prominently known throughout East Tennessee and other parts of the county.

The Mountain City Chapter, D.A.R., conducted a service May 30, 1928 in honor of William Donnelly, soldier of the War of 1812, at the family square in Mountain View Cemetery. The marker was unveiled by Jean McPherson, Dickie Donnelly, Jimmie McCanless, and Katherine Exum, great, great grandchildren. An interesting history of William Donnelly was read by his great-granddaughter, Miss Annie Matney. There was much interest in this service as a great many visitors attended from a distance.
