Surnames: Hicks, Strech, Emmerich Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Cei.2ACEB/4159 Message Board Post: I was able to go through a small box of personal letters belonging to my grandmother and her mother. This box was in my cousin's attic for over 30 years. Many of the letters are from the mid 1920's. One had my genealogy copied from a family bible. I was able to fill in a lot of dates and names. My greatgrandmother was Anna Marie Hicks (b. 1892 MO and d. 1968 CA), the daughter of John Wesley Hicks (b. 1845 PA and d. 1906 ?) and Maggie Catherine Tucker. John Wesley Hicks was the son of John Richard Hicks (b. 1814 MD and d. 1880 IL) and Catherine Emmerich. John and Catherine had 8 children: William Benjamin Hicks, Rebecca Hicks, Elizabeth Hicks, Maria Hicks, John Wesley Hicks, George Washington Hicks, Joseph Nelson Hicks and Mary Catherine Hicks. This is where my Hicks line ends. Does anyone have any information going back further? Thanks, Ric

_http://www.tngenweb.org/monroe/newspaper/FILE7.TXT_ (http://www.tngenweb.org/monroe/newspaper/FILE7.TXT) Friday, April 7, 1876 Death of Wesley J. Hicks---Wesley J. Hicks died at Knoxville on the morning of the 31st ult. We had no personal acquaintance with the deceased, but learn from those who knew him well that he was one of the best of men, and a natural born lawyer. He had attained a marked distinction among members of the Bar throughout the State, and his work on "Chancery Practice" are said now to be a hand-book to the professors. Mr. Hicks was a native of Monroe County, and has many relatives in this county who mourn his death. He was a member of the M.E. Church South, and died in full triumph of the Christian faith.

In fact, Nancy (daughter of Chief Broom of Broom Town) was the principal wife of Nathan's son Charles Renatus Hicks (ca. 1765-1827). Nancy's brother, Capt. Broom, was said to be a brother-in-law of Charles R. Hicks by the Moravian missionaries. Capt. Broom perished en route during the Cherokee Removal (misnamed "Trail of Tears") in the winter of 1838/1839.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Cei.2ACEB/3194.4 Message Board Post: Dr. Emmet Starr was given incorrect information by his informants that Elizabeth Hicks married William Campbell, Eliphus Holt, and James Vann. However, contemporary records of both the Bureau of Indian Affairs and Moravian missionaries show that the wife of these men was Mary (or Polly) Scott, a niece of Charles Renatus Hicks, William Abraham Hicks, Sarah Hicks, and Elizabeth Hicks. Nathan Hicks was a white trader, and his wife (possibly named Nancy Wolf) was a sister of a 1/2 blood named Gun Rod (father of Hair Conrad, Rattlinggoard, Terrapin Head, Young Wolf, and Quatie). This information is from the Moravian diaries at Spring Place, GA. A new translation of these diaries (from German) is scheduled to be published late this year by the University of Nebraska Press. The mother of the Cherokee mixed-blood James Bigby (b. ca.1778) was another sister of Charles et al., but she was unlikely to have been Elizabeth Hicks (b. ca.1770). Bigby's mother also married men named Wilson and Douglas. My guess is that she was named Polly or Mary, a common female name in the Hicks family. Sarah Hicks married Walter Scott (British agent to the Cherokees at the end of the Revolutionary War). Their children were Polly, Peggie (Margaret Ann), Betsey (Elizabeth), and Sally Scott (my ancestor). There were other children of Walter Scott by another unknown Cherokee wife(parents of Richard Scott). Betsey Scott had children by seven husbands, and she and her sister Polly were confusingly identified as Betsey Hicks by Dr. Starr's sources.

The three repaired to the house of Enos' father, and called for him. Enos being upstairs, his father told him to come down, saying, these men are after you, let us kill them, and immediately commenced firing on Divine and his assistants, who returned the fire. Caswell Hicks was killed outright, and both of the Hunts wounded, after which, they were arrested and lodged in jail. **************** February 3, 1870 Letter From Madisonville, February 1, 1870---Editor Enterprise: Dear Sir, On yesterday one Enos J. Hunt, about whom we have heard so much of late, was committed to jail at this place for shooting at a Miss White some time ago. He has been keeping out of the way for several months; but he came home a few days ago, said he had joined the U.S. Army, and that it would protect him. He is the same young man that Divine and others were trying to arrest when Cas. Hicks was killed, and it is likely before he gets through with this case, that he will be indicted for stealing horses in Knox County. This is the fourth one of the family we have in jail here. His father and brother for killing Hicks, his sister for resisting the officer when he was trying to arrest Enos at the time Hicks was killed, and now Enos himself. We do not know when the balance of them will come.
