Everything in my research is always based on records – I do not copy other people’s family trees and add them. It is very easy to go onto a site such as Ancestry.com and copy what others have added, but I STRONGLY encourage people to do their own research and to only add folks to their tree if there is strong evidence to do so through historical records.
Descendants of John E. Partain. John E PARTAIN was born between 1775-1784 in North Carolina or Virginia. He had nine sons and three daughters with Serena EBBERLY between 1787 and 1821. He died in 1841 in Murray, Georgia, at the age of 66, and was buried in Ringgold, Georgia. Many of the Partain / Partin / Parton families in America today can trace their line through John and Serena, including my own. – Updated July 2026
