My Freels family heritage appears to begin with Thomas Freels (or Frields) as it is spelt in some records. He was born 1755-1760. It is the writer's belief that he was born in that part of North Carolina that later became Eastern Tennessee. Or it is quite possible that he was born in North Carolina and moved south to Georgia and then up to Eastern Tennessee. Whatever the case may be, he was most definitely in Knox Co., TN on May 25, 1798 when he married Polly Matlock.
