Hi sorry it has taken me a little to get back with... I am in digest mode. OK. That gets me a little clearer on some of the Merry's. Here a while back though I was told that Millian Webb who married Robert Hazelip (& lived in Rutherford & Buncombe Cos.) was not actually sister or daughter to Merry. One of the Millian's married a John or Thomas Hall and went to Tennessee from Rutherford Co., NC. Yet, of the other Webb's that were in Rutherford, and later Buncombe Co., NC. The one who married the Hall was a great deal older than Millian, wife of Robert. But at the same time I have not been able to find any actual records of which Webb she belongs and whose family later came to Hart, Edmonson, Warren & Barren Cos. area. On the Hazelip's I had asked about - I had found some records to that effect in Edmonson, but one or two names over the years did not always fit on the census, as compared to the court records. Now, I know that bit. Now that brings up the question - how are Thomas Puckett (married Alsey Webb) and Rebecca Puckett (married Robert Hazelip, jr) related to each other? Is she a sister of Thomas? I have no birth or death dates on her. Have any of the early Hart Co marriage records survived or is it limited to the sporadic ones from 1852-1907? I did not see any listed at LDS. Zandra
