Hello and good Monday evening, Does anyone have a Tippah County cemetery book. I am searching for Elias Hovis, born about 1800 in NC and his wife Mary J. born about 1826. I have no date of death for either. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Wyn
Hi, I have quite a bit of information on this family. The Elias I have was married to Eliza Lewis Witherspoon. He was born in 1793 and in North Carolina. They married 3 Jan 1824. According to the Tippah County Death Notices 1836-1936, he died in 1873. The notice was filed on Feb. 22 1873. I have lots more.
