    1. [TNGREENE] McMurtry
    2. I found this odd entry in the Green County Will book: ROBERT GRAGG 1793 Greene County, Tennessee, South of the River Ohio. Children: John S. William Gragg, Abigail Gragg, Betsey Gragg, Robert, Samuel, Thomas, Henry. To Son, John S., a horse, cow and calf. To Son, William, a horse, cow and calf, my rifle gun and shot gun, big pot and crock. John and William to work together and John make all decisions. To Daughter, Abigail, 1/2 her dresses, cow and calf. To Son, Robert, my Big Bible. To Son, Samuel, my sword, money from Virginia. Sell my stud horse named Shakespeare for 25 pounds Virginia currency and give money to daughter, Betsey. Pay Colonel Kelly. Sons, Thomas, Henry, Samuel and Robert, Benjamin Crow, George Malcom and Joseph McMurtry, an equal share of all remaining of my estate. Executors: Sons, Samuel and Robert. Witnesses: Benjamin Crow, Junr., William Wall. Dated: 23 May 1793. Signed: Robert Gragg It looks like Joseph McMurtry is included with his sons and was to get an equal share. I thought this might provide some genealogical clues for you? **************What's for dinner tonight? Find quick and easy dinner ideas for any occasion.

I hate when that happens. All of the other stuff I found has D. as the written initial including the marriage document and his tombstone. The 1910 and 1920 Censuses goes back to using the D. as the middle initial. The 1930 cesus has him as just Sam and says he was born in 1870. They like to throw a wrench in there just to confuse you :D My grandfather was Samuel Dewey Taylor and went by his middle name. Even the Social Security office had his name as Dewey. I'm assuming my Samuel Sr. middle name was Dewey but I haven't come across anything that says what the D. stands for. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I've found him from that census on and his birth year is always 1867 to 1870. His tombstone says dob 07-31-1868. I don't think the one in Carter Co. is him because that might be too old. Also, my Samuel spent his life as a farmer. I will research this more though just to make sure. You never know! I was told once that my Samuel's father was David A Taylor (b.1830) who was married to Elizabeth Jane (coincidentally!) (b. 1834) but I have a 1880 census for them in Green Co. This information was based on the memory of a living relative who knew that the person they were researching (Andrew Taylor, David A Taylor's son)had a brother named Samuel D. Taylor, born about 1867/1868. However, I can't find anything in the records to support this. I'm totally at a loss how my Samuel can just disappear (or rather, fail to appear) until 1889 when he married his wife Bettie (b. 1870) in Jonesborough TN. It's proving to be quite the challenge. Thanks so much for your help! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
