Notes for John Charles CUMMINGS Sr.
Married in Guilford County, NC, in 1778,
presumed buried here, see photo which says:
• "Old Cummings Cemetery, Boyd Bend near Loudin, is now completely destroyed.
Some of the old Cummings family were buried here. Source: Johnny Cox, Sr."
--by Denise 2013
Note: Headstone photo posted here names children of John Reagan and Nancy Findley buried in Jay Conatser Cemetery, Fentress County, Tennessee; not the children of John and Nancy (Turner) Cummins in Whitley County, Kentucky. John Cummins is said to have died years before any of these children were born. This marker is in Tennessee.

Notes for Nancy Ann (Spouse 1)
Nancy's parents are said to be Henry and Ann (MNU) Turner.
Married in Guilford, North Carolina in 1778, to John C Cummins, also presumed to be buried in the Old Cummins cemetery mentioned in the other photo. There are no remaining grave markers in this cemetery.
The 2008 family photo incorrectly posted in 2020 is for the children of John and Nancy Findley Reagan, buried in Jay Conatser Cemetery in Fentress County, Tennessee, not of the children of John and Nancy Turner Cummins in Whitley County, Kentucky. John Cummins is said to have died years before any of these children were born. That marker is in Tennessee and should not be posted to this grave.
James Cummins is her son.
Rachel Gatliff is her daughter.
Elizabeth Cummings Tye is her daughter.
From Find A Grave.
——————————
Name in father Henry’s will is Nancy Kimborough Turner.
————————————————
Problem birth date of 18 Mar 1764, makes her too young to have had Rachel before she turned 12. Possibly a previous wife for John Charles Cummings?
—————————————
Alternative death date Jan 22, 1843.445,666

A Nancy Turner married a James Kinbro 27 Dec 1787 Caswell, North Carolina.
