Hello All, I've been mulling over a bad photocopy of some handwritten notes made by my Great Grandmother Pauline CLARK HILL, b. 1905 in Ballard County, KY, for some time now. I've looked at census records etc., and except for the obvious, still can't put the pieces together. I thought I'd post some of these notes to the list. Perhaps they will ring a bell with someone, as it seems that all of these families lived in Gibson County at one time. The notes list things like cemetery plot numbers but no cemetery! Everyone appears to be in the same cemetery, somewhere in TN. Most of the people are unfamiliar to me, so any tips are greatly appreciated!

A little over a year ago, the first part of a transcription from a family Bible found in Gibson County, TN was sent to this list. It was submitted by Vicky Hutchings and the Bible had information about Dozier, Lovell, Cullum and Hooper families. I've been anxiously awaiting the remainder of the transcription. Was the rest ever posted? I'd really love to know what else was in that Bible. Thanks Wade Glascock

Gang, Thanks!! I have received many great replies to my request for help. Just in case I missed replying to someone I wanted to say thanks on the list. Have gone from a brick wall to having several areas to check. I hope to be able to return the favors to each. Sincerely, Milton ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ See my WEBB line at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~mwebb/

Gang, Any one that can give me a little advice on Civil War research, especially west TN related?

You don't say when he was born and when he died, but if he's your great grandfather, you should be able to find him in the census. Start with the 1920 census and work backwards. If you don't know how to use the census, check Cyndi's list under the category census. http://www.cyndislist.com There are death records for TN from 1908 to the present (except 1913), and indices to the death records for 1908 to 1945 or 1946 (separate index for each year). I might be able to look him or someone else up in the index after I get home, but I would need the approximate year of death and full name. The index does not give any other information other than the date and county of death and name of the person and a page number or certificate number, but you get an idea of what you can get from TN Vital Statistics or the Archives. There are marriage records for Gibson County from about 1824 to 1950 that have been published by the LDS church. The only copy I know of is in the TN archives, but I would assume that the Gibson Co., TN library has a copy, too. It should be available at your local LDS library on microfilm or microfiche. The LDS libraries are called Family History Centers. Check your local phone book, or look through Cyndi's list for more information. Don't worry, they won't try to convert you. There are published cemetery records for Gibson Co. You might be able to get the books on interlibrary loan at your local library. Check the Library of Congress Catalog for the full reference to the book http://www.loc.gov or someone on the Gibson co., TN mailing list might have a copy. Plus, many of the cemetary are on the Gibson Co.
