Carole, Have you looked up these people in the 1880 census? Mitzi

Researching Fletcher & Annie(Lampkin) Biddle (b. 1865). Fletcher died before 1900. Annie married Leroy Paschal. She is listed on the 1900 census with Leroy Paschal and children, Samuel, Frank, Fred & Joseph Biddle and daughter Rosa Paschal.

Hi, gail, yes, i would be interested in the wyatt living in the household of richard stubblefield, if possible. and i thank you for your trouble. cheryl

Hello. I have Wyatt Stubblefield married Rebecca J. Shadwick 25 Feb. 1859 in Moniteau Co., MO. This could be a second marriage for Stubblefield. Rebecca Shadwick was a daughter of Hardy Shadwick, b. 1803 in NC. Hardy Shadwick was my g-g-grandfather. The family moved from Monroe Co. or Grainger Co., TN to MO ca 1836. You mention Native American. Family tradition says the Shadwicks had Cherokee blood. I'd appreciate anything you have on Shadwick family and Native American ties. Thank you, Trueman Farris. ----- Original Message ----- From: <User920035@aol.com> To: <TNGRAING-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, January 17, 2000 6:45 AM Subject: [TNGRAING-L] Re:Stubblefield > Does anyone know where I might find documentation of the marriage of Wyatt > Stubblefield (Native American) to Sarah (also Native American)? in TN? > > ______________________________

There is a will in Hawkins Co., Tn for a Wyeth Stubblefield dated July 1, 1821 in (Vol.1 1786-1864) I have a copy of a will for someone else and his is at the bottom of the page with only 3 lines. I am interested in the Robert Loxley Stubblefield line. Robert son Thomas had a daughter Elizabeth Nancy who married a Fleming Mayes and I have not been able to find a marriage record. Hope this will be of some help, if you have anything on my Nancy and Fleming would appreciate any help.

>From "Early East Tennessee Marriage Records" by Byron Sistler and Associates: Wyote STUBBLEFIELD to Mary Adaline THOMPSON 19 October 1844 Jefferson County, Tennessee. This same Wyote appears to be in the 1850 Jefferson County, Tennessee census. The following is the listing: Wyatt Stublefield age 40 Born:Tennessee Mary A. age 25 Born: Tennessee Rebecca J. age 4 Sarah age 3 Benjamin F. age 1 Terrissa A. INMAN age 14 Emily J. 12 Jefferson County 61/665 There is another Wyatt Stubblefield listed in Hawkins County. He is 19 and living in the household of Richard Stubblefield. Wyatt and Mary are still in Jefferson County in 1860 census. The Wyatt living in the household of Richard Stubblefield is still living in that household in 1860 census. This time they are located in Grainger County. If you would like the complete entries for Richard and Wyatt let me know. Gail in Moreno Valley, Ca.

The records for Grainger Co. begin in 1796. You may want to check Hawkins County or Green County for Wyatt Stubblefield. Thanks! Mickey

Rita, Your books went out on Friday. #4 should be ready next week, hopefully. Thanks! Mickey

Mickey is right. I was there and conditons for accomplishing anything are - to say the least are uncomfortable. When those two ladies learned what I was there for, they stopped what they were doing and looked up and copied what they could find for me. I can't say how much I appreciate the accomodation they gave me. This was at the courthouse in a room approximately 10x 8 containing a lot of the record books and boxes of records. If the women working in the office needed something stored in there, their work stopped to accomodate her. If they were on the copy machine the same thing applied. How they accomplish what they do is beyond me. >From there we went to the old school. One of the first things I heard them say was watch out when you pull the box out for SNAKES. The next remark was I sure hope I don't come up on one of those big spiders. For any records they get out of that mess we need to thank the women who are doing this job a big thank you. For all they did for me that day they asked for nothing in return. They should not have to defend themselves for anything. Several years ago I was in the Clerk'soffice looking for some records -my grandparents marriage license for one thing. Didn't find it. Was told all Grainger Co. Marriage license were on microfilm in Nashville. My grandparents' was not there. I paid professional genealogist $300.00 to see what she could find. She found the license in a box of of mixed up records underneath a counter. Mickey is working hard to straighten those things out. We owe her a lot of gratitude.

A lot of people have apparently learned a lot from the books you have done. We live within a couple of hours so we did our research ourselves but, because of distance, not everyone can go see and search for themselves. I have been in that "closet" too, along with a step ladder, bunches of boxes, books, and loose papers. There is a lot of dust (naturally), the lighting is not very good (naturally in a vault/closet) and the writing on some of the old documents is atrocious or very dim. And that office simply does not have enough room! My husband and I were there over a year ago searching for a will and, looking back on it, I am surprised that we found it. The people in the office were very nice to us, but they can't help the amount of space they have, what has happened to the records over the years, etc. Thank you for the work you do, have done, and will do. It is APPRECIATED!

Most of these documents are so hard to read. When we transcribe these we are sitting in a "closet" with our paper on our laps. This is also where they keep the license plates and other things used by the county clerks office. Every time they need something we have to get up and move out of the room to get out of their way. We have learned that on Tuesdays they have court and we are definately in their way. We try to work as fast as we can writing and putting the documents back in order. The books are meant mostly as an index as to what is still available. There has been a few people show up looking for info while we are there and Barbara Jackson just tells them that there isn't room for more people back there. Each time we have heard that we have gotten up and went up front and ask what they were looking for and tried to find it for them for FREE. There was a real nice lady named Mildred that subscribes to this list "Milly@kiva.net" that came in one day from out of state and we helped her as much as we can. So she can tell you first hand what kind of conditions we are working in. She also went to the old school to have a look at the mess there. If you purchase one of our books and need to know the bondsman just email me and I'll look it up for you for FREE or send an email to Diana and she'll get you a copy for FREE. I just hate taking up so much time trying to defend myself when so many of you out there has been so supportive. Thanks! Mickey
