Kymm, Thanks for the lookup. Yes, those are members of my family line. Some of the older members of the family have been listed as buried in the Chris Mabry Cemetery but I cannot find that cemetery. It could be in Overton or Clay County. It isn't listed in the older version of the Overton Roll Call or in the Clay County cemetery book.

Ask all the questions you want. My Savages lived mainly in Overton County, TN. As for where they were from, that is the big question. The only clue I have is the census where Robert H. Savage listed his birth place as South Carolina. I'm sorry, Donna, but I don't have a Rebecca listed.

Hello BEEN researchers, Vanessa is a descendant of a member of the BEEN family and we realize that it is a variant of the surname BEAN. Below are three entries from the Jackson County Ranger Book that pertain to members of the BEEN family. We hope you find some useful information in them.

Thanks Stan --no--don't look anything up for now. The given names don't fit in ---however they might at some point so I am saving what you found. I am thinking my Chisms may not have been in Jackson/Overton County so very long ---but just long enough to get acquainted with some Browns & Robinsons who migrated on up to McLean Co. Illinois. Then my gggrandfather followed them up there after his mother died. They all intermarried up there anyhow. They should have stayed in Tennessee, where I ended up---Right? Thanks alot.

Hello again Kymm, The entry for John Barns is the last one on page 35. The hand written "P36" just below it almost touches this entry. It would be easy for the recorder to make a mistake with this entry. I double-checked it myself to be sure that I got it right. Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family.
