I am looking for information on my husband's family. His father was Lonas/Louis "Mack" McCann. He was the son of John Carl and Audestia Boatman McCann. He was born in Illinois and raised in Corpus Christi, TX. But, his family was supposed to have come from Grainger County. He is supposed to have been related to the Cameron and Beckham (sp) families. Someone living in the Rutledge or Bean Station area sent him newspaper clippings of his children in the sixties and seventies as they were growing up in Grainger Co. I am also looking for information on my husband's mother and family. She was supposed to have been born in Grainger County in 1930. They lived in West Virginia prior to that. Her name was Mary Beatrice Cook. She was the daughter of Robert Scott Cook and Della Beatrice Huffman/Hoffman who later married Orbin Anders. I have found the Cook's listed in the 1930 Grainger County Census. Mary Beatrice died in TX in 1963 and was brought back to Grainger County. They are all buried at Helton Springs in Rutledge, TN. Any information (now matter how small) would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Tracy McCann
