   History of Tennessee, 1887

       C. T. LONGMIRE, farmer, was born in Washington County July
   12, 1844, the son of WILLIAM and TREPHENA (WILLIAMS) LONGMIRE.
   The father, a native of the same county, is a farmer near Johnson
   City, and the mother is a native of Carter County. She reared ten
   sons and five daughters. Our subject was fairly educated, but left
   school and became a Confederate soldier for about three years.  He
   then went to Virginia, where for seventeen years he was engaged in
   the construction and repair of railways. He moved to this county
   about 1882, and has been engaged in farming. He began without capital,
   and now owns a fine estate of 275 acres in this county, where he has
   lived the quiet life of a farmer, without any aspiration for office.
   September 27, 1871, he married ALICE R. J., a daughter of WILLIAM
   DUNGAN.
