LeftwichSharing Leftwich info. Ginny Keefer ----- Original Message ----- From: Charles O. Schull To: Virginia L. (Ginny) Keefer in LasVegas Sent: Tuesday, April 19, 2005 10:27 PM Subject: Leftwich Hi Ginny, It ever stop raining down there? I think you know my line of Leftwitches, mixed with Stones and Hopkins and Higgins. My g. grandmother Sarah Leftwich Higgins goes back through her mother Francis Hopkins STONE, d/o Micajah STONE Jr. & Sarah Leftwich>> Littleberry LEFTWICH. Littleberry was born 1757 in Bedford Co, VA not TN. His father Augustine LEFTWICH 1712 Caroline Co, VA and died there 1795 married to Mary NORTH. They had issue of 12 and Littleberry the only one listed as where ( Bedford Co, VA 1757-1823 ). Littleberry married, 1778 Bedford Co, Francis Hopkins and they has issue of 7. Of which, Mary Polly married John Reece, Eglantine married Rev James Cole ( Primitive Baptist Church, Belleville TN ), and Sarah married Micajah Stone Jr. At this point we get to Lincoln Co, Tn as they both died there. The Stone line was from Bedford Co, VA and First I find to Lincoln was Micajah STONE Jr. His father , Micajah Sr. also came from Caroline Co, VA to Bedford. Micajah STONE Jr. m. 1801 Sarah LEFTWICH and had issue of 12. Francis " Fannie " Hopkins Stone married Owen W. Higgins 1824 in LCT and thus one of their 8 was ultimately my g. grandmother, m. to D. B. SHULL. G. G. Fannie's brother Littleberry Leftwich STONE was father of James Drake STONE that married Susie SHULL, d/o D. B. SHULL and Julia Ann Davis, his 1st wife. I tried to find the LEFTWICH those folks were looking for but there is a passel of them out there. If they are interested, I could run a descendant Report and then just maybe, who knows.

Hello Bedford List; This may not seem like genealogy but it may help me find my g-grandpa who was born in Bedford County in 1859. His name was Zephaniah Polk Weaver. In about 1875 he went to work for the Rail Road, and probably there in Bedford County. He would have been about 16 years old at the time. I believe he became a Road Construction Engineer and may have worked for the Rail Road from about 1875 up to about 1920. My question is this; does anyone in Bedford, or anywhere else for that matter, have information on the Rail Road and/or its employees covering any part of the period from about 1875 to about 1920? Second question; Where can I find searchable Rail Road Pension Records and/or other employee records that might help me prove this? Thanks a lot. Don Weaver [email protected]

Hello, I am not related to the Browns, however, I have a Hill relative that died in 1834 also in Bedford County TN and he also was from VA.. moved there before 1817... I was wondering if you happened to know what your Brown relative happened to have died of in that year?.. It might just explain a few things... Thanks, Diana

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Brown, Leftwich, Yates, Hall, Moore, Dent, Mitchell Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/IhB.2ACI/568.1.1 Message Board Post: Tanya, Strangely, Browns from Bedford Co, VA came to Bedford Co, TN. And, there is a book in the TN State Library and Archives with a section about this Brown family, Mead Relations by A. M. Prichard. This family is full of Daniel Browns, beginning with Daniel Brown born maybe about 1720 in New Jersey, who had a son Daniel who married Lucy Leftwich, perhaps daughter of Augustine Leftwich (some of this family came to Bedford Co, TN). This Daniel Brown was father of a Shadrack Brown. There were two Shadrack Brown marriages in Bedford Co, VA: 1787 to Hannah Mitchell and 1799 to Tabitha Hall. I have seen it said they were both the same man. I am not sure that is correct. At any rate the Shadrack Brown who married Tabitha Hall definitely came to Bedford Co, TN and stayed, raised a large family here and Tabitha lived long enough for her will to be one of the earliest that survived the courthouse fire. Other Daniel Browns: Henry (brother of Daniel b. 1720) had Daniel b. 1770, married Mary Hancock in 1803 and Daniel, son of Samuel (another son of Henry) and Mary Moore Brown who married 1798 (so this Daniel born after 1798). Another Brown family from Bedford Co, VA to Bedford Co, TN--if connected to those above, I don't know how: Hezekiah Brown, under 18 when his father made his will in Aug 1795 in Bedford Co, VA. Joseph Brown and wife Elizabeth (thought to be Elizabeth Dent) were parents of Hezekiah. I believe he was the Hezekiah who came to Bedford Co, TN because this family was associated with the John Yates family in Bedford Co, VA.

Steve, This is the most useful info that I have seen on the subject of school land. Thanks for sharing it with us. Harold Gobbell ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Carson" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, April 17, 2005 1:37 PM Subject: [TNBEDFOR] Tennessee Public School Lands >A few months ago we had a discussion on this list about the meaning of the > term "School Land" on early Tennessee tax lists.

We are concerned here with only "lands set aside for common > (public) schools", hereinafter called "School Land". > 2) On 18 April 1806, the US congress passed an act authorizing the State > of > Tennessee to issue grants and perfect title to certain lands including > land > still vacant. A condition of the act was that a certain amount of land > (640 > acres in each 6 square miles for the use of common schools) should be set > aside for schools and colleges. It was intended that proceeds from the > sale > of these lands be held in a fund for the use of schools. > 3) When Tennessee made arrangements to carry out the act, it took a > different approach. Each county court was to appoint a commissioner who > was > to lease out the School Land in that county on the best terms, collect the > rents, and apportion them properly. > 4) This process was not raising enough money to fund public schools since > far less land that expected had been actually set-aside as School Land. In > 1823, the State of Tennessee passed an act that provided that "the > proceeds > from the sale of and from state taxes on certain vacant lands north and > east of the Congressional Reservation line" should go into the school > fund. > The land was authorized for sale at 12 ½ cents an acre. The act also > required that taxes on School Land be kept separate from other taxes > collected by each county and be reported separately to the state. Some > counties (Maury, Montgomery, and Perry) failed to separately account for > and report tax in School Land. > 5) In 1825 the sale of School Land was authorized. Blocks of School Land > were to be surveyed off into tracts of 160 acres each for sale at 12 ½ > cents an acre. But sales were suspended "until the determination of any > suit or suits now pending in the courts". > 6) An 1831 accounting of the money in the school fund showed that by that > date some lands had been sold at the 12 ½ cents and acre rate and the > proceeds added to the school fund. > > Additional information below on why some school land took a long time to > sell is based on the following reference: > > The Public Lands of Tennessee > Thomas B. Jones > Tennessee Historical Quarterly > Volume 27, Spring - Winter 1968, pp.13 - 36 > > 1) In the late 1820's, the issue of land set aside for the use of schools > was a key component in debates within the US Congress regarding settling > disputes over remaining vacant land in Tennessee. > 2) A large amount of acreage was needed to meet the "640 acres in each 6 > square miles" goal. James Polk submitted data to Congress saying that out > of 444,444 acres that should have been set aside for the use of schools, > only 22,705 acres had actually been properly set aside.
