The oldest son of James was William Henry Cunningham (born 1808-SC) and is well-documented. We have many census records, the pages of the family Bible, and county marriage records to work with. All of William Henry's children were born and married in Carroll County, TN. It appears that he held about 1,000 acres six miles east of Milan, TN along what is now Highway 104 and near the Milan arsenal. It is said he gave each of his eight children 100 acres when they married. William Henry married Masilda LITTLE in 1834, and her family was from South Carolina. There is a descendant of this line named Jack Cunningham that lives in Milan today (and there may be others).
