From Sorrells Genealogy:
Sevier Co., TN records list William THURMAN and Randle JAMES as the Surveyor's Chain Carriers on some 20 acres of land surveyed for John THURMAN in 1824 on the Big East Fork of the Little Pigeon River. (Dated 12 Jun 1824, being surveyed on 21 June 1824)
He is listed on the 1830 Sevier Co., TN Census. He is a neighbor to Joseph CLARK.

Land survey in Sevier Co., TN dated 1838 would indicated that he was alive then, but dead before the 1850 Census was taken. The first date on the survey for 25 acres is 20 Nov 1826. Lying on Bird's Creek.
There is another document from Sevier Co., TN Deed Book that is Item # 22443 (or perhaps page) that is dated 20 Nov 1838 where land is surveyed.
