Thank you very much, Steve, for posting H. L. Davidson's address. I'm wondering if this Hugh Davidson was the father of Priscilla Davidson b. ca 1827 who married G.E. ("El") Bowden. An 1860 census entry for Coffee County identifies some of G.E. and Priscilla's children: GE Bowden (41) living w/ Priscilla (33), Margret (14), Nancy (12), William (10), Charles (9), Susan (6), John (4), and Hugh (3) in the 5th Civil District (Tullahoma Post Office) of Coffee County, Tennessee. Priscilla Bowden's maiden name and her father's name are included in the Coffee County case of Bowdon v. Rathbone, but I'm not sure if it was the same Hugh Davidson.

I have just scanned and converted to text the "Historical Address of Judge H .L. Davidson at the Centennial Celebration of the Tennessee Historical Society, July 4, 1876". This address is now posted on the Bedford County GenWeb site and linked from the History page: http://www.tngenweb.org/bedford/history.htm The original address is 22 pages in length and is from a book at TSLA in Nashville. It contains a lot of interesting history and information about the conditions in Bedford County in 1876. I want to thank Charles Reeves for posting it and Carolyn Smotherman for obtaining copies of pages missing from my photocopy. Note: Looks like a few stray characters have made it in and I will get those corrected shortly (some "E" with a caret over them!) Steve

I am researching the following Joseph Rogers who was a Revolutionary War Veteran. He applied for a pension in Bedford County, TN in 1832. The pension application states many valuable details about the life of Joseph Rogers. The application is from the book, "Revolutionary Soldiers of Bedford County" by Timothy and Helen Marsh, page 196, The following are quotes about : Joseph Rogers, rank private SC, soldier #1928 SC, claim #7037, TN, born September 17, 1750 in Amelia County, VA and died after 1834. Interrogatories by the Court: Q: Where and in what year were you born? A: I was born in Amealy (Amelia) County in the State of Virginia on the 17th day of September 1750. Q: Have you any record of your age and if so where is it? A: I have no record of my age at this time, but have seen it often where it was recorded in my father's dictionary, in the State of South Carolina, but where it is now, I cannot tell. Q: Where were you living when called into service? Where have you lived since the Revolutionary War and where do you now live? A: I was a citizen of Fairfield County in the State of South Carolina when I entered the service of the United States and continued there until after the close of the war, and I think I removed to the County of Fayette and State of Kentucky in the year 1792 or 1793, where I lived nearly three years, when I removed to the State of Georgia and I think I lived there fourteen years, I then removed to Rutherford County in the State of Tennessee where I lived about eight years, and from there I removed to Bedford County, Tennessee, where I have lived every since and where I now live I would like to correspond with any one searching these Rogers lines.

Barb, Yes, the Cobb family you listed from Franklin Co. TN is my line. The J.K. Cobb and family I am looking for is Jesse Cobb's stepson. He shares the same mother as the other children you listed. BTW, Marion R. Cobb was a male. My great grandfather was James P. Cobb. I descend from him and his second wife. I have quite a bit of info on these siblings but am always looking for more and wanted to fill out the line on J.K.'s descendants before I have the book printed. The book will be the descendants of Jesse and Nancy Cobb. Thanks for sending info. Virginia Greene

Velma: All of the hyperlinks are to .GIF files. The one you are interested in is: http://www.tngenweb.org/bedford/Maps/7th.gif Here is how I would save it. Once you have that image open in a browser you do what ever that browser does to save an image from a web page. In Internet Explorer (IE), you right click on the image and choose "Save picture as...". I just checked and I can save this image that way. Another way to save it is in IE is from the main page: http://www.tngenweb.org/bedford/maps.htm right click on the link text "District 7" and choose "Save target as...". I just checked and I can save the image that way also. Please let me know if neither of these work for you and we will work out another solution.
