Hello All, Thanks to many helpful people on several of the TN County lists, and to a few well calculated genealogical purchases, I managed to break through the brick wall that has been my PARRISH line. Since this family lived in Gibson County at one time, I thought I'd post my findings. Perhaps it will help someone else. Thanks, Shelley My GGG Grandmother Lucinda M. PARRISH, b. 1853, m. Soloman Murry SAUNDERS/SANDERS in Dyer County. (I still have not identified Soloman Murry's parents.) They later moved to Gibson County where their dau. Mattie Elizabeth SANDERS was born in 1880. Mattie married Daniel Hiram CLARK, b. 1878 in Obion County. They were married in Wickliffe, KY, Ballard, Co. Some of their children moved back to Gibson County as adults (Early 1900's). Some moved to Dyer County.
