    1. [ROOTWALKER] (TSLA) Margaret A. STEENBERGEN BUTRUM, Macon Co., TN
    2. Good morning BUTRUM researchers, On the recent visit to TSLA, we researched Mrs. Margaret A. STEENBERGEN BUTRUM of Macon County, Tennessee. In the book "Macon County Cemeteries, Vol. 2,"1989, we did not find a listing for Mrs. BUTRUM. In the book "Macon County Cemeteries, Vol 1," 1987, though, we did find a listing for Mrs. BUTRUM. In the Payne Cemetery, near Lafayette, Tennessee, there is a grave for her. The tombstone reads as follows: BUTRUM, Margret A. Steenbergen, Born March 3, 1831, Died May 8, 1911. We searched through the 1900 census of Macon County, Tennessee, on microfilm, and did not find a HALE family that had Mrs. BUTRUM living with them. This could have been missed, though, because of the nature of scanning hundreds of images on a microfilm. This census is indexed using the Soundex system, which meant that about 90 percent of the roll was the same number, H400. We hope that the grave shown above is the information you were looking for. Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family. Sincerely, Stan Magnesen ROOTWALKER site/list coordinator
