Things I would suggest if not already looked at, local newspaper obits, can take time. Local historical society, and funeral homes, and church records for burial ceremonies. Also maybe a given name vs family name, Hettie or ?. Mike If you respond to this digest, please replace the subject line of your response (so it doesn't read "Re: ROOTS-L Digest") and please don't quote the digest ... a few lines from the message to which you are responding or (better still) a brief summary of that message will do.

Meantime there is a date range. Tennessee State Marriages, 1780-2002 Name:Mrs M C Cole Gender:Female Marriage Date:24 Mar 1883 Marriage Place:Lincoln, Tennessee, USA Spouse:B A Beard Eliz Not Today and Not without a Fight (Anon) For all that has been, thanks. For all that will be, yes. (Dag Hammarskjold) On Sat, Apr 2, 2016 at 9:57 AM, Dixie M.
