Celeste, Your attitude that no one else knows anything is really getting to me. Since what I wrote you was what Darrell found and you seem to know differently, then handle it your self. I'm tired of trying to help and instead of thanks for the info, I get why it must be wrong. This is not the first time. Joyce In a message dated 12/13/2006 3:31:10 P.M.

I have the 1810 reconstructed TN census - and I know there are no Hookers in those counties then, but there is the one Hooker in Willaimson Co.,TN in 1810 that I feel is ours (I think it is Wm listed in Williamson Co.,TN in 1810 - Thoams and Wm are listed - one or the other between 1801 and 1813 in Williamson Co.,TN which was made out of Davidson Co.,TN c 1799. Darrell has told me several times he feels that the Thoams and Wm who moved from TN to AL c 1818 (to live bside George and Samuel in Farnklin Co.,AL by 1820 on the census) were brothers of the other ones - there is just too much eveidence that they are and they had to be somewhere prior to 1801!!! Darrell has told me that it makes sense that George Sam and Robert moved directly north from Middle TN c 1806/07 into KY where they are lsited on tax records from 1807-1816 (with Sam not listed in KY between 1898-1812). Maybe he mis-read 1790 as 1890. I know there are reconstructed censuses for the lost censuses of 1810 and 1890 - wonder why he did not write me about "pulling a book" as I was the one who asked him to look at "microfilm" on 1770-1790 for the territorial census takend then before TN was a state!!!!!!!!!

All I said was that what I asked Darrel for was a 1790 territorial census on microfilm stored in SLC at the LDS library - not in a book. There would be no reason to reconstruct a "territorial" census - the census was taken in Middle TN in 1770, 1780 and 1790 and was not a federal census. You brought up it being in a "book" and being a "reconstructed" census. I just said I know there were reconstructed censuses for 1810 and 1890, but there would have been little info in 1770-90 in Middle TN to "reconstruct" a census from as that part of TN was just opening up and did not even have counties to collect taxes - most reconstructed censuses are made from tax records. Also, the last time I asked Darrell a week or two ago he had not yet looked into that; he did look into the tax records of Williamson Co.,TN (which started c 1801) and found a Wm and Thomas Hooker (one or the other) there from 1801-1818 so maybe their parents were there c 1790 and maybe not. I would like to know if a territorial/pre-state or pre-federal census was taken in East TN in those same yrs - none was lsited onthe LDS site but it might be in the state archives. Several people told me (off-list)in the past day or so that you wrote a fairly nasty note to me on the list, and others have told me you wrote simillar things to them about them (directly to them). I was not saying that no one knew anything, but that what I asked for was not in a "book" but on microfilm and that I had asked Darrell about it recently and he indicated he had not yer had time to look for it. I thanked you over and over again for your help with Esom's census listings so I do thank you for your look - ups.
