Ellis Died: 12/18/1941 Blount Co., TN Buried: Mt. Tabor Cemetery, Blount Co., TN Elbert Sevier was the first born son of Edmund Emerson Kidd and lived his entire life in Blount County, TN, had twelve children and raised a large successful family, many of whom also raised large successful families. Elbert's father, Edmond, was said to raise and trade Tennessee walker horses and when Elbert ('Eb' as he was called) was about 10 years old he had a horse of his own, as a pet, his father had given him. Family lore tells us that 10 year old 'Eb' was absolutely heartbroken when his prize horse was confiscated by a group of soldiers in 1861, presumably to support the civil war effort. It's not known if the horse was taken by Union or Confederate soldiers, but it is known that shortly thereafter Tennessee joined the Confederacy and the governor sent rebel troops to occupy eastern Tennessee to insure its loyalty.. But in spite of that, as eastern Tennessee leaned Union at the time including Blount County, many young men from that area joined the Union army. *See - Kidds in the Civil War But none of that mattered to poor Eb. All he knew was his beloved horse was gone. Nevertheless, young Eb grew into an upstanding citizen and loyal family man, and family lore tells us that he was never heard by anyone to utter a curse or foul word at man or beast, even when plowing!
