He knew nothing of it until Tennessee opened their adoption records about 4 years ago. Now his second adoptive father, my cousin, who is an attorney, had to come up to Murfreesboro to get the first adoption set aside so he could complete his adoption. I am trying to get a copy of the first adoption papers from Murfreesboro, so far have been unable to do so. Will try to follow up on the information you have given me, again thanks. Ira

    1. [DC] A Parker Memory
    2. j
    3. Well Vermon was of course the grandson of Palestine Dennis and Robert C. Parker. This time, he recalled a Parker memory...so I thought some of you Parker researchers might enjoy this. "Grandpappy" is Robert Parker, 1854-1934. Granny is "Tiney" (Palestine) 1858-1933. He is recalling life in Tip Top prior to 1910...and this letter was written some thirty years ago to my dad. -jan "The hill down from our house has some special memories for me. First when I had the whooping cough I went down the hill and as I started back up my cough became so intense I just laid down and coughed and coughed, with that red dirt being brought up in my lungs. Another time Grandpappy had been down in the bottom for some reason. I was down at the foot of the hill, for no reason. Gradpappy picked me up. He was in a wagon with the side boards on. As he approached our house he says to me, "Vermon, get down so your mother can't see you." When we came in front of our house Mama came out and inquired, "Pappy, have you seen Vermon?" He says, "No, Asilee, I have not." When we got to his house he walked up the hill and told Mama I was with him. Great guy he was. One of my fondest memories of him in my early years before we came to Texas, was seeing him sitting in a cane bottom chair in the hallway of their log home. Granny, the impetuous person that she was, as well as being a very fine grandmother, demanded what I thought to be an unusual amount of his attention to minor things. I shall never forget one day I was down there. Granpappy and I were having a good time talking and playing. Granny fills her brush with snuff, goes into the house and in that shrill voice calls out, "Rob E R T". I said, "Granpappy, Granny wants you." His remark was, "Vermon, I have been hearing that for nigh on to 50 years and it does not excite me a bit." He just leaned his chair back against the log wall."

    3. That is what I get for staying up so late. Correction. Vermon's MOTHER was Asilee Parker, first cousin to my father. Asilee (1883-1967) was the daughter of Robert Parker and Palestine Dennis, granddaughter to Thomas M. Dennis and Levicey Futrell. She was also, for those of you who like trivia, born the day before her first cousin, also an Asilee, Asilee Futrell. And I better hush and hit the sack before I goof again remembering this genealogy in my head without looking up stuff. YAWN. -jan

    1. [DC] Tobacco Time in 1910
    2. j
    3. I am going to share a first hand account of what tobacco season was in Stewart County in 1910. Verman Fitzhugh wrote this letter to my father thirty years ago, remembering his days as a young boy. Vermon was my father's double first cousin. He was the son of George Fitzhugh, who was the son of Henry Madden Fitzhugh, who was son of James Young Fitzhugh. Verman was the nephew of my grandmother, Minnie Fitzhugh Dennis. Moreover, to make for even more confusing connections, Vermon was married to Asilee Parker, who was the first cousin to my grandfather, Thomas M. Dennis, and the granddaughter of Thomas M. Dennis and Levicey Futrell. -jan Vermon's recollection of tobacco in Stewart Co., 1910: "In my mind I pictured the road down the hill to the tobacco barn at the bottom of the hill-just a few hundred feet or yards to the left on a road that went to Aunt Fannie Robertson's place. Believe it or not, I saw that barn "raised". I saw the first crop of tobacco placed in it and witnessed the saw dust fire that cured it. In my youth I saw a lot of things happen in connection with tobacco. I have wormed the plants, got the irritating gooey in my eyes which would burn for days. I tried to help in harvest time. Split the plants and straddle them over the sticks on which they would be placed in the barn for curing. Then near market time, the stripping of the leaves, grading and putting them in a hogshead for shipment to market in Clarksville or Nashville. Three times I went to market with Papa. Our tobacco, hogs, and corn were placed on the river bank. We went down the river before sundown and maybe about 4:00 o'clock the next morning the steamboat would pull in for a landing to pick up the cargo. Our way then of notifying the boat of a haul was to get on the river edge and wave a lighted lantern. The boat would answer with its steam whistle and pretty soon it would come in for a landing. In those days, all up and down the Cumberland, the steamboats zig-zagged from one landing to the other. Time was not important as it is today. Everybody had time, plenty of time. Living was hard, money non-existant. It took two days and one night to go from our landing to Nashville. I did not mind. I enjoyed the good food served on the boat and the apparent pleasure of the negro stevedores shooting craps between landings.

    1. Re: [DC] Kevin Andrew Irish, Shelby and Rutherford Counties Tenn, Adopted.
    2. Rosemary: This is a message I put on the Internet about a Cousin of mine in Memphis, whose Adopted son is trying to get some information on his first adoptive mother, the message below explains, the situation. They the adoptive (First) lived in Murfreesboro, and because of martial problems lost their right to finalize the adoption. Any suggestions as to how I may find the adoptive mother's Maiden name. They lived in California when the divorce was final. Thanks Ira << I M P O R T A N T Hello Fellow, diggers, shovelers and swimmers. While this is not a direct Genealogy query, it is Genealogy and we need help. I have a cousin in Memphis Tennessee, who has an adopted son, now in his 30s, and is trying to locate people in his life, from the orphanage to date. He was placed in an orphanage in Memphis Tennessee in the 60s, and was adopted by an Airforce Man from Sewart Airforce Base, Smyrna Tennessee, they lived in Murfreesboro Tennessee. Their names were David Leroy Irish and wife June Mary Irish. When they adopted Kevin Andrew or Andrew Kevin, they already had another adopted child named Debra Louise, they were from California, San Francisco area. Shortly after adopting Kevin Andrew, they had marital problems and separated, the department of Human Services, knew of this and since the adoption was not final it was annulled, and Kevin returned to the orphanage in Memphis, where my cousin and his wife saw him and they adopted him. They have been very open with him about his adoption and has grown into a successful young man, but has always wondered about people in his past life, but with adoption records closed could not get the information. Some few years back Tennessee opened these records and he received his. Enclosed in with his records was a letter from his first adoptive mother, about how heart breaking it was to give him up. Because of this letter he wants to contact his first Adoptive Mother, through the records he has been able to locate his Biological parents, in Memphis. He has also found out through records that they were divorced in Sacramento Calif., 1969, through Airfare records David Leroy Irish died and was buried in California in 1995. He has been unable to find his first Adoptive Mother, apparently she has remarried, as has their Adopted Daughter Debra Louise Irish, apparently married changing their last names. Kevin is very interested in locating these people if at all possible and is leaving no stone unturned in so doing. Anyone reading this and should they know anything of these people he would really appreciate it. He is not on line but any information I would see that he gets it.

We were wondering if possibly the "Divorce Papers in 1969" would show her maiden name. Also I was hoping possibly someone would recognizee the "Irish" name and recall these people. Also there are a lot of people from the Military who were in the Airforce back in the 60's that might have been friends with them and recall them.

    1. [DC] Sunday Afternoon Rocking
    2. j
    3. "Aunt Lillie's Lesson" (from the "Sunday Afternoon Rocking" series) She stands proudly, shoulders thrown back, looking the camera full in the eye, a kerchief on her head, skirts that come to ankles clad in a pair of boots, a crisp white apron topping it all. She wraps her arms protectively about two small children, one in a pair of frayed overalls, the other in a dress outgrown, in a coat from which thin wrists poke out too short sleeves. They look a bit bedraggled, these children, and shy. They lean into the woman's skirts and the woman's strong brown hands clasp the shoulders of the children firmly. It is evident from the way the children hover behind her skirts, and from her own fierce proud look into the camera that these children trust her to keep them safe. It is apparent that this woman is as fierce in her devotion to them as they are to her. It is equally apparent that the strong tall woman is not their mother, for her skin is not the same color. When my mother found this picture in a box of photographs she did not know existed, she was overcome with emotion. "It is Aunt Lillie!", she exclaimed, and from that day till this she would not part with that picture. "I would take nothing for that picture," she has told me time and again. My mother is the little girl whose thin little arms poke from the coat sleeves. Her brother is the tiny shy little boy hiding behind Aunt Lillie's skirts. Aunt Lillie was the black woman who came each day to help their mother run a household on a sharecropper's farm, and Aunt Lillie was considered yet another mother to them. My mother's family was not wealthy, and did not own the farm they worked. Side by side they tended the land with other folks. When sharecropping could not feed and clothe the family, they left the farm, and went north to a land of factories and industry, and they left behind many folks like Aunt Lillie, that they had worked beside, and considered extended "family". They took along with them their memories. They remembered praying together, singing together, helping one another bury their dead. A little boy remembered sadly not ever again having "Aunt Lillie's biscuits". Mama says, "I will never forget the sight of Aunt Lillie walking down the road to the house each morning. She always took long strides, always wore her white apron, always had a shopping bag she swung in her hand..." And as she smiles remembering, I know a little girl must have anxiously waited for that woman to appear each day, perhaps hovering in a window peering out. Many years later, having raised their own families, my mother and her sister would go back to Tennessee looking for the "old farm". They would find it, and sit at the end of the road looking up at it and remembering. A man would appear on the porch to ask them if he could help them, and when they told him they had once lived here as children, his bronzed face would break into a wide warm smile, his eyes light up, and he would say, "You Mr. Jim and Miz Icie's youngins? You get out of that car right now, and come on up here on the porch a spell and talk to us!" And so they did...welcomed home by an extended family who remembered a time years could not erase. And for all of them, this family who lived in the house my mother and her sister once did, and for my mother and her sister, there was made another time to cherish in memory, as they sat on the porch and caught up on one another's lives. Do not misinterpret the addressing of "Mr. Jim" and "Miz Icie" and "Aunt" as being anything but what it was...a sign of the regional belief in manners. In much of the south, we address each other, regardless of race or age, in such a manner. It is considered "proper" and it is considered respectful. Those of the area who knew my grandparents, regardless of who they were, recall their memory to me and address them in that same way. Much has been written of the south, of prejudices and injustices, of wrongful thinking and of stereotypes. Much of what has been written is true, but much is not. There have indeed been miles to travel in terms of equality, but there is yet a story not often told. There is another picture in the south, one many of us know well...and it is a story of mutual caring, mutual friendship, mutual sharing...that transcended all the negative pictures media has painted for so long. Within the south so often, there was indeed a friendship, a clasping of hands of differing colors, that is often not written of. And so...regardless of whether it is "politically correct" to do so or not, I do so now. A copy of the picture my Mama loves so is on my desk, will remain there. Mama, I love Aunt Lillie too. I never knew her but I love her because of the way her hand is clasped on your frail thin shoulder. I love her because that faded old photograph captured the look in her eye that tells me her love for you and wish to protect you was as fierce as my own. Yes Mama...we know another picture of the south...and I expect that two little children and a tall protective woman would have taken to task anyone who tried to come between the mutual love the three of you had for one another with the picture media sometimes portrays as a generality occurring everywhere in the south. It simply was not so. just a thought, jan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (Note: Afternoon Rocking messages are meant to be passed on, meant to be shared...simply share as written without alterations...and in entirety.

I have set up a friendly sort of list for Stewart County researchers, where it will be all right to chat together, share our families together, laugh together, pray together, sing together, rock on the porch and "be neighborly" together just as our families did years ago in Stewart County together. If you would like to be a part of a group like that you may sub by sending e-mail to [email protected] The Tnstewar list will continue being what it is, primarily for sharing information, genealogy research, learning the customs and culture of our county. The other for more personal sharing and rocking on the porch! Hope to see many of you there! jan

    3. I have obviously gotten sidetracked on sending out these funeral home papers, but tonight finally finished addressing the last of them, and they will go in the mail. I got myself in a tangle getting so many responses, and then got sidetracked. But I THINK it is straightened out now. (Spirit willing, mind weak, and duty called). Below are ones I am still left with. If anyone wants one, contact me OFFlist, please and I will be happy to snail it to you. I certainly do not need these, but cannot bear to throw them away.
