James McGavock, 1786 - 1833 married Lucinda Ewing 1792 -1847, daughter of Captain Alexander Ewing 1752 -1822 and Sarah "Sally" Smith 1761 - 1850

Alexander and Sally were active in the social life of Davidson County and were contemporaries of Andrew Jackson's and Rachel Donelson's families. In fact, Andrew Jackson witnessed Alexander's signature on at least one legal document. Rachel Donelson's brothers engaged in the defense of their land and neighboring plantations against Indian attack, along with Alexander and his sons. Although Tennessee was still in some ways a frontier land fraught with expected and unexpected dangers, lavish entertainments were hosted by plantation owners like Alexander Ewing, Andrew Jackson, and the Donelsons--made possible by the wealth accumulated from careful supervision of lands and other goods and by the labor furnished by slaves. But this way of life was fast approaching an end in the South, and the Civil War loomed on the horizon. The day of the "Gentleman Planter" both in the more established South and on this newer frontier was fast approaching its demise.
