Read More	Andrew Taylor was born in Ireland. He married, first, Elizabeth Wilson and second Anne Wilson. He was a member of the Constitutional Convention of the State of Franklin 1784.He was buried in Taylor Family Cemetery above Powder Branch near Watauga Point, Carter Co.-WD & TSA The State of Franklin, also the Free Republic of Franklin or the State of Franklin, was an unrecognized, autonomous "territory" located in what is today eastern Tennessee. Franklin was created in 1784 from part of the territory west of the Appalachian Mountains that had been offered by North Carolina as a cession to Congress to help pay off debts related to the Revolutionary War. It was founded with the intent of becoming the fourteenth state of the new United States. Franklin's first capital was Jonesborough. After the summer of 1785, the government of Franklin, by then based in Greeneville, was ruled as a "parallel government" running alongside (but not harmoniously with) a re-established North Carolina bureaucracy. Franklin was never admitted into the union. The extra-legal state existed for only about four and a half years, ostensibly as a republic, after which North Carolina re-assumed full control of the area. The creation of Franklin is novel, in that it resulted from both a cession (an offering from North Carolina to Congress) and a secession (seceding from North Carolina, when its offer to Congress was not acted upon, and the original cession was rescinded).It ceased to exist in 1788. Andrew was also Justice of the peace for Washington County where he amassed a large amount of land. Carter County was formed from part of Washington County in 1796.
