Does anyone know of a Martha Stuart(Stewart) born about 1843 who married a Leander Bethel (Lee) Griffin b.1864 Jefferson Co. TN. They would have married about 1864 in Newport, TN. The courthouse in Cocke County, TN (Newport, TN) burned down in the early 1900's. Many people from Cocke County were married in Jefferson Co. TN. Have you checked the records there? They are available on line. My husband's family were very early into Cocke County so I have learned the other ways of finding info in Cocke County. Go to the cemetary records there; they are on line and fairly decent. Also there are some church records available. I might be able to help you find information if you let me know what you have. Just write me directly. Donna Nichols
