This has all got to tie together somehow. My God, this is a mess! Some of the names my grandmother mentioned in her "life stories" were: James Hargis, John Hatfield, Owen Adkins, Jesse Adkins, John Burgess(Maggies husband), ?Abbott, Adams, Brumsfield, Plumley's, Upchurch, Cox, Jenkins, Chriswell and that's just to name a few! all of these clues have led me nowhere but if they can help anyone else I'm glad to share. Anything ring a bell?
