    3. There is a John Comer buried in Davis Chapel Cemetery: b. 1862 and d. 1947. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bonnie Mumford" <mumfy@zoominternet.net> To: <TNCAMPBE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, May 09, 2004 6:21 PM Subject: [TNCAMPBE-L] Hunting Comers that lived on Davis Chapel Road in 1930 I am tracking down the John Comer family, (he was born March 1866) who lived on Davis Chapel Road in the 1930 census. His wife was Sarah Prater who had died in 1927. I need a death date for him and was wondering if he could have been buried at Davis Chapel Cemetery?? Sarah and John had twins Dora and Doshie born Nov 1897. Dora apparently married a Wilkensen or Wilkerson after 1920 but she was a widow by 1930 and lived with her father John in 1930. There was also a son: John Henry Comer b. 1900 in March (and may have died in June 1970 in Claiborne Co.); a son named Benjamin F. (b. April 1909 and died *I think* in April 1980) and another son named William W. A daughter Mae who was born in 1905 may have died before 1920. The main mystery I'm trying to crack is Sarah Prater apparently had married an E. M. Riggs in 1891 (marriage record). Who was E. M. Riggs??? She shows up in the 1900 census married to John Comer (they married in 1897). In the 1910 census, Sarah stated she'd been married twice (John said only once) and there's a son named James who was 16 in her household. This James was found in the household of Sarah's grandparents in 1900 (age 5 b. Oct 1895) and was listed as James R. Prater. In 1910 he was listed as James Comer. I lose track of this James in the 1920. He either died or perhaps took his father's last name maybe?? Anyway, any info would be deeply appreciated.
