Nancy Hainsworth^[1]

Bef 1789 - Yes, date unknown

• Name	Nancy Hainsworth  [2]
  Birth	Bef 1789
  Gender	Female
  Death	Yes, date unknown
  Notes	Wynema McGrew writes (p. 10) that Nancy eventually married a Phillips and later took up Thos. M'Gee (sic), who was the murderer of Raleigh Hightower. http://www.legendsofamerica.com/WE-WilliamMcGrew2.html "Bill" was only two years old when his father was ambushed, and his mother Nancy Hainsworth McGrew Phillips did not maintain such an honorable family reputation. In the "Voice of Sumter," August 9, 1836, she was denounced by Regulators, as a "Jezebel" for harboring mixed Indians and borderers among her clan, and for aiding and abetting the Kemp-McGrew feud. The article by Louis C. Gaines called for her to be driven from the country, but she said she would "die on the grit." Evidently, she did choose to return to Texas. She had been listed in the failed Wavell's colony in Texas in 1830, causing her to remain in Alabama, but 1850 she was in Leon County, Texas, whether by choice or force is unknown.
