Kathryn, You are so sweet to look these up for all of us. I am "on your end" on a couple of other list I belong to because I own all the research for this one specific county! so...I know all the work your doing. I really appreciate it. My problem with the Taylor's, Perry's and Tillman's are this...I know they resided in Bedford and close area counties...I know my "main ancestors"....it's the wife's that died that I have no concrete info on their specific names or their families. I'm trying to hit matches with similar family names and land deeds, probates that I've picked up along the way. How about these...if you have any of the following or close to the first names, I'd really appreciate it. Tillman's - Actually, if there's not alot...I'd like them. I know for a fact all the Tillman's in Bedford I'm kin to. I'm specifically looking for the women who married into the Tillman Family who died at young ages... Mary Perry Tillman? Clara Perry Tillman? Martha Perry Tillman ? Joshua Tillman Belitha (sp?) Perry ? Martha, Clara or Mary Taylor?? John Taylor ? I'm sorry I can't be more specific...whatever you can give me, I'll try to "match" them up. Thanks again! I appreciate it. Pam Tillman-Goff

Kathryn, Could you look up James Hastings born 1826? He's my great grandfather. I am trying to find out when he died and where he is. I would appreciate it so much! Thanks for volunteering! Kathy Hastings

Kathryn, Would you mind checking if there are any POPEJOYs in the Cemetery book? Thank you, Jennie Lee

Kathryn, Is it possible for you to look up the names James, John, or Martha Dalton and Richard (Dick) or Jane Johnston in the Cemetery Records of Bedford Co, TN?

Hi Pam, Below please find the listings for PERRYs found in the cemetery book. The index to this book is only by Surname, so it will take quite a bit of time to look up and type up all the Tillmans and especially the Taylor's. If you could be a bit more specific in your request, I might be able to do it sooner. Thanks, Kathryn Cemetery Records of Bedford County, Tennessee Compiled by Helen C. & Timothy R.

I need someone to look up information in Bedford CO TN. I had lighting to zap my old computer. I had information about Bird, Byrd and Coleman deeds, wills, selling land to family members 1800 to late 1800. I remember a mother Frances, a son maybe JMH and a sister Lucy. Mother and sister sold their land to JMH. Also mention Frances 2nd husband and Lucy's husband. Also there was information about deeds and Bird and Byrd and their first names. Also I recently meet a Linda Coleman whose family had land on Duck Creek early 1800's she thinks some of them had first names of David and other D names. Think she is a cousin of my mother they both resemble cousins at our family reunions. I can send a photo of them to anyone collecting photo of living family of Bedford Co families in the 1800s.

LDS RECORDS Hi While the LDS records do have some mistakes in them so do all records. They are only as good as the person recording them have you checked the mistakes in the census and birth and death records. My grandparents birth records have the birth counties switched I would check as much of the documented records as I could find for the correct last name. -----Original Message----- From: Beverly Peavler <bp@peavler.org> To: TNBEDFOR-L@rootsweb.com <TNBEDFOR-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Friday, February 22, 2002 6:52 AM Subject: [TNBEDFOR] LDS records >I have found many mistakes in LDS family genealogies, so if it were me, I >would tend to give the other source more credence.

Cathryn, In your cemetery records, do you have any Tillman, Perry's or Taylor's?? Thanks so much, Pam Tillman-Goff

You have documentation that she was the daughter of Robert Cannon and Elizabeth Scales. If you will contact the LDS they will tell you that their files are not documented. They accept anything that is turned in, but do not claim to have proof.

Carickmatt: Checking the cemetery records for Bedford and Marshall Counties I find some Greggs but nothing close to your KW. Also checked the Wheel book (18th District of Bedford) and the Goodspeeds for Bedford County and found nothing. Sorry.

Hello, I would like to find a site that contains it's query correspondence in mostly Shelbyville, Bedford County, TN. Most of my stone walls are in that town. Is there such a site? The person that I am having the most questions on is the wife of Patrick Fay, out of Galway County, Ireland. Her name is listed as Ann S. Fay in the 1870 federal census and mentioned in the "Marsh's Bedford County Tennessee Wills and Vital Records from Newspapers," as being the child of Robert Cannon and Miss Scales, and the wife of Patrick Fay. She is listed at "LDS" as Ann Donnalan, marrying to Patrick Fay, 13 May 1856. I would dearly like to find the answer to; Was her maiden name Ann S.Cannon or Ann S Donnalan? And, who were Patricks Fay's family. I have been told that Patrick is buried in the Old City Cemetery, and Ann S Fay as buried in Willow Mount, both in Shelbyville, TN. Thank you for your kindness.

Don't get me wrong LDS is a great way to find others researching the same lines as yourself and very helpful. I use their Family Search site http://www.familysearch.org/ alot to find others researching similiar lines I also use the World Connect site http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/ at Rootsweb to find others researching the same lines. That I also use as a guide. The info there is from contributors and not actually from Primary Records...I feel its up the each researcher to check and verify the sources. I know I can see it in writing and even see the source given but I won't be sure until I see the actual records. I guess I'm a skeptic.

Book Patrick is listed as follows in the Old City Cem. as you said Patrick Fay Born Mar 10th 1814 in County Galway, Ireland. He emigrated in 1837 married in 1845 & Died Aug 25 1865. It also notes that near him with no markers are Ella Fay (died winter of 1908) and Julia Fay (died about 1910) I did not find Ann S. Fay listed in the Index of the same book among the Fay Listings She is listed however in another book Bedford Co. TN Vital Records and Wills from Newspapers(also by the Marshes) as having been witness to the will of Eliza M. Nelson M. T. Cannon also witnessed the will which was probated May of 1886 Then in the same book an article from the Shelbyville Gazette dated July 3 1890 Mrs. Ann S. Fay died last Tuesday of heart disease. She was the eldest dau. of the late Gen Robert Cannon and a niece of Ex-Gov. Connon(possibly should be Cannon) of TN. She is buried in Willow Mount at 4pm on Wed. Services by Rev. T. H. Hinson.
