Hi, One of our ancestors is Amanda Jane NIX (1826-1875) who married William Thomas LEEPER. Her father's name was John William NIX and her mother may have been Betty SPRATT. LEEPER definitely came from TN to MO, but I do not know if he married in TN or after he got to MO. If this is part of your family, be glad to share info.

Does anyone have the Cem book for Tarrant or Lubbock co, TX?? Thank you, Bev

My name is Margaret Elizabeth Mintz. My father was Preston Jethro Nix of Gadsden, Alabama; my mother was Jessie Stanfield, also of Gadsden. I had one sister, Marie Eidson, who is now deceased. My father died when I was 3 years old due to burn complications resulting from a house fire. His father was David Nix and his mother was Nancy McClendon. I don't know much about my father's family due to his death during my childhood. I think most of his relatives were from the Altoona area. If anyone thinks they can help me learn more, please contact me.
