Sandy, Charles Fuqua is not the only one whom is elusive. His children, siblings, and parents are also. I've found Charles only in the 1850 Stewart co.,Tn and 1870 JCI census. He is the son of John & Permelia Ross Fuqua. Them only in the 1840/1850 census. Of the five children of Charles only Della Fuqua Bryant Sweetin Sheridan have I found known grandchildren of Charles, unless you want to consider Maude Crider as a dau of Cora Fuqua Crider. :) Charles's brother Harvey Milton Fuqua md Martha Springer 1874HCI lived and died there in 1912. His son John M Fuqua owned the store in JCI. Zenobia Bumpus d/o Dallas & Bertha Campbell Bumpus mentions the Fuqua store and him raising his Tittle niece after the fire, In her old audio cassette version of the family history (full of starting and stopping clicks ).

Lonnie, I forgot to ask you how you determined Harvey Milton Fuqua was a brother to Charles? He's not in the 1850 census with the family. In 1900 census in Beaver Twp, HCI, he states he doesn't know what year he was born nor how old he is.
