Good Morning Mollie: I have come upon some information on one of my surnames and I am wondering if you might know if there is a Redden Cemetery in Dickson or around that area? If so I would like to be able to have the stones transcribed. If you do not know that is O.K. Thanks a bunch. Tell Rita I said hi and hope she is doing well. Joyce in MI

Hi, Who is compiling the book? Perhaps my family is listed. Thanks, Kat Robbins

Gail - Sorry but don't know at this time. I am trying to find out also. What state or area or you trying to get the marker in? My first contact is to be the Graves Co. Ky Historical Society. Hope to contact them next week. If I have any luck I will let you know.

Hi Billy: Saw your post on a Historical Marker. Do you know what procedure I could follow to see if another site will qualify?? Thanks, Gale

Strong Cemetery is on Old County House Road. From Dickson, go north on Hwy. 48 to Charlotte; turn right on Hwy 47 at the Cee Bee store. Go 2 miles, turn left on Old County House Road; go approx. 2 1/2 miles (crossing the Jones Creek bridge) and the cemetery is on the left side of the road at the top of the hill. It is in a little grove of trees and the stones are not too visible from the road if you are not watching carefully. Someone does keep it nicely mowed now, but the little plot is a disaster. Too little, too late. Charlotte

I received this request for info and can not answer this researcher, can any one out there help..

On the 1830 census, NANCY SPICER is listed.(someone sent that to me) I believe she was the wife of Claibourne Spicer. Does the census of 1830 state where the head of house was from? Thanls Bette

Thank you Carolyn. I will pass any verified info I get on Dickson Co to you. I do appreciate your time and efforts. Regards Bette

Here is what little I have: 1850 Di Co TN Census, p. 96, family # 94, beginning line 16: HAND, Kisiah, 55, b. GA Wm., 25, b. TN, S.B. Pilot Letticia, 18, TN Mary, 19, TN John T.W., 18, TN John, 2, TN Louise, 8/12, TN 1860 Di Co TN Census, p. 275, Family # 1048 HAND, W. Jr., 38 (male) J.T., 12 (male) L., 10 (female) J., 8 (male) G.W., 6 (male) K [or R], 60 (female) Now assuming that these are the same families: Since Wm. from 1850 is listed as W. Jr. in 1860, then his mother, Kisiah was m. to William HAND...I have not found a marriage record to prove this. I do find a marriage record for William Hand to Letticia Hunter. From the 1850 census, I am assuming that John and Louisa are children of William and Letticia. John T.W. and Mary are children of Kisiah and siblings of William. Since Letticia does not appear on the 1860 census, but a child is born abt. 1854, I would assume she d. between 1854-1860...again unproven. I also find a mar. record for John Hand to Mary A. Williams, on 6 Sept. 1854, Di Co TN. This could be John T.W. Again I have not proved that John T.W. is the same man as John who m. Mary Williams. From the 1850 census, the best candidate for the Mary Williams who m. John Hand is Mary E. Williams, b. abt 1833, TN, a daughter of J.J. Williams and Elisabeth (UNKNOWN) Williams, family # 91. The family #'s from 1850, are close, which leads to the assumption, but I can not prove that these are the same people either. [Big help, huh! only questions, not many answers!] This is not my family. I am compiling info for a book of outlines of residents of Dickson Co., TN, in 1850. I am shamlessly seeking help from others, especially for documentation as I can personally search only so many records. If anyone reading this can answer any questions about the families listed above, I would be most appreciative to hear from you. It still amazes me how one fact links to another fact, each submitted to me by different researchers. It is great to see the info in one spot. Regards, Carolyn Nelson CRSNelson@aol.com

Billy, I search in KY from time to time, and I use this site <A HREF="http://ukcc.uky.edu/~vitalrec/">Kentucky Vital Records Index</A> . It looks like they do not have records for divorces before 1970, but they will probably tell you to search in the county records. Hope this site helps you in other searches too. Pat Durham McRae, in Indiana Researching: TRIMBLE, IVY/IVIE/IVEY, ELDER, HALL, FUSSELL, DURHAM, THOMPSON, & FLORA in the south

Looking for help on how to search. My grandfather divorced his wife, date unknown, and remarried to a Stella (last name unknown). This was in the early 1930's. Not having a date for the divorce or marriage, I have no idea where to begin. This was in Graves Co. Ky. I live in LaGrange KY. about 240 miles from Graves Co. Is there any way to search for this info without a trip to Graves Co. If necessary to make the trip where would I search for these records? Advise and help will be greatly appreciated. Billy Jones

Doug - Sounds like you have a real problem. Sounds like you have a legal problem. I would approach the owner one more time in my best manner and get another response from him. Let him know you are really concerned and interested in saving your family's heritage. If that doesn't succeed have a attorney write him a letter explaining the law. Hope it doesn't have to go that far. Best of Luck! Billy Jones Original Message ----- From: betty collier Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 5:00 PM To: TNDICKSO-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [TNDICKSO] Re: [TNDICKSOn Linzy graves Actually yes. He knew the graves were in the grove of trees. The previous owner had barred children of James Linzy years ago and they didn't know they had rights. When the new owner bought the place he discovered the graves and moved some stones around after a tree fell. My dad told me about where it was and I went on a search and found it a few years ago. When I asked he went with me to the site and was cordial. the second timeI went to record the stones He advised it would do no good to return. that was the last time I found him there , but the week after he had moved the feeders into the grove and all his cattle was milling about. Just after that time I became disabled and was restricted for about two years. I intend to do something, but at this time I do not know what. I have always thought it was counterproductive to have a fenced area in the middle of a pasture and I do not think that would be the best way to handle the situation. I would just like to Id the graves and restore the stones disturbed.I may persue this in the late fall.
