Notes:

Judge Trewhitt was a civic leader in Bradley County. In 1861, though he was in his 60's, he was arrested and imprisioned by the Confederacy without trial after Union sympathizers burned several bridges in East Tennessee. Despite numerous appeals for his release and testimony that he actively discouraged participation in the rebellion againts the Confederacy, he was not released, and he died in prison camp in Mobile, Alabama. The "History" media items attached to this record give more details of his case. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Tennessee_bridge_burnings

---

Judge Trewhitt's parentage is not documented, and various unsourced online trees differ about who his parents were.

The majority of Ancestry.com trees that include him say that his parents were James Madison Tewhitt and Elizabeth Mumford, and some list his grandparents as Levi Trewhitt (born 1725 in NC) and Mary West. There is a marriage record for Levi Trewhitt(1725) and Mary West, but I cannot find any contemporaneous documentation of James Madison Trewhitt or Elizabeth Mumford. A Jesse Mumford (age 80) was living with 63-year-old Levi Trewhitt and family in 1860.

Other trees and GRid=39690158 say that Judge Trewhitt was the son of Levi Truitt and Susanna Morgan. There is some weak documentation of both Levi Truitt and Susanna Morgan, primarily through generic marriage record sources (e.g. "International Marriage Records"), but only ambiguous information about their birth places. (See their profiles, both linked from this one)

FWIW, the online trees that report Judge Trewhitt's father to be James Madison Trewitt tend to list a brother named Jesse Trewhitt, a physician, who also lived in Morgan Co, TN, and migrated to Arkansas. (See his profile). On the other hand, the online trees that report Judge Trewitt's father to be Levi Truitt tend not to list Jesse Trewhitt as a brother, but do tend to list a brother named James Alford Truitt, who fought in the Texas War of Independence, and served as a justice of the peace and state legislator in Texas for many years.
