The only known Revolutionary War soldier buried in Dickenson County rests on knoll, to the left of intersection McClure and Mullins Avenues (State Highway 83). Died in 1849 at home of his son John who, in 1829, was the first settler on Holly Creek at what is now Clintwood. The Mullinses came from Toe River, Mitchell County, N.C. Family tradition has it "great-grandsir" John joined Col. William Campbell's Over Mountain Men as they passed his home, and was one of that little band of Patriots to turn the tide of battle at Kings Mountain that glorious October day in 1780.
