They came from TN to Greene Co MO between 1856 and 1859. Wm A died in 1895 and Mary Ann (his first wife) died in 1879, both in Greene Co MO. They are my 2nd great grandparents on my maternal grandmother Hattie Alice Orr's side. I would also like evidence that about their parents. For Wm A. Norman I believe they are Robert Potter Norman b. about 1777 in NC and died in 1855 in Perry TN and Martha COFFEE b. about 1795 in GA and died in 1852. For Mary Ann Gibson I believe they are John M Gibson b. 1804 in NC and Martha HARPER b. 1808 in Bedford TN and died in 1849. Again I have no evidence that they are indeed the correct parents. Any evidence will be most appreciated. I would also like to know who the grandparents, etc. were of Wm A and Mary Ann. I believe the children of Robert P Norman and Martha Coffee are listed below. Any confirmation of this would be appreciated. Thomas N. NORMAN b: 25 DEC 1817 James C. NORMAN b: 18 APR 1818 Mary Jane NORMAN b: 26 SEP 1819 Eliza E. NORMAN b: 29 NOV 1821 William Allen NORMAN b: 4 AUG 1823 Elizabeth P. NORMAN b: 29 DEC 1827 Martha A. NORMAN b: 26 OCT 1829 Robert Porter NORMAN b: 16 MAR 1836 Finally I would like to communicate by email with anyone who has any of the above folks as ancestors.
