First Play by an infielder

[Roger Greene]

Charlie,

Andy Jackson was born 3/15/1767 on a farm in Waxhaw settlement. No one is sure if the cabin was in NC or SC.
The farm was on both sides of the road that formed the border between the states. He joined the SC milita when he was 13years old after British Troops invaded SC in 1780.
After the war he taught school for a while, and was admitted to the NC Bar as an attorney in 1787, and in 1788 was appointed solicitor for the region in the western mountains that now forms Tennessee.

Tennesee was North Carolina at that time. However, his birthplace was in the area near present day Charlotte.
