I have found the birth dates for Hugh & Gary.  I have found various
other information on the other two.  Would you accept half an answer? 
If not, I will post in the comment section as I know how hard it is to
come across DOB's :)

?In 1783, the General Assembly of North Carolina passed an act
dividing Washington County for the second time, and establishing the
county of Greene. On the third Monday of August, the court of pleas
and quarter sessions met at the house of Robert Carr, which stood near
to what is known as the Big Spring in Greeneville. The magistrates
present were Joseph Hardin, John Newman, George Doherty, James
Houston, Amos Bird and ASAHEL RAWLINGS.?

?The first pioneers here were the Gillespies, Crocketts, Henry
Earnest, Francis Hughes, Nathan Davis, ASHAEL RAWLINGS and Col. Daniel
Kenedy (first Clerk of Court) and Amos Byrd from Westover Manor in
VA.?

I did a lot of piecing together based on years of birth, places of
birth and places of death in the terms of parents.  The rootsweb
reference I happened to stumble upon through researching of the
Rawlings name on their website.  It gave me many url?s to choose from,
one being cemetery listings.  I don?t know why I was drawn to that one
but the first name on the list was A. P. Rawlings with the correct
year of birth.  Everything fits rather well and after about 15 years
of doing my own genealogical research (Standiford & McManus lines), I
am pretty confident in the dates.  If, however, you do not feel my
educated guess and these sites are enough for you to consider this an
?answer?, please let me know and I will have the answer removed.

If you need anything further, please do not hesitate to ask and I will
see what I can do to help you further.  Happy hunting!
