Kim Wilson Email: KimWilson67@aol.com >> Kim: Here are my directions to Hensley Cemetery; I can't remember off the top of my head what the house of my Aunt Lucy and Uncle Sam looked like, but I don't remember the cemetery being hard to find. As I recall, you can see it from the road. Do you mind my asking who you are looking for? I have lots of folks buried there. As a matter of fact, I was in Soddy this past Saturday and intended to stop at Hensley but ran out of time. HENSLEY CEMETERY - take Hixson Pike (#319) north from Chattanooga. Turn left on Dallas Valley Road. Turn right at first road. Cemetery on the hill above Sam & Lucy's House; near Daisy. sallie cox, Birmingham, Alabama

Am still looking for my Farris that died in Daisy, Tn around 1885. I rec'd an obit from the Tennessee State Library & Archives... it reads: "Death in the County Wm. Farris, well known in the First district, died Wednesday of dropsy of the heart" It was from the Chattanooga Daily Times Oct. 10, 1885 Would anyone have any idea of what the "First district" would refer to? My Farris was really Harvey, but William could have been a middle name. Thanks for any and all help!! Barbara from San Diego

He was living in Hamilton County in 1850 with his wife, Griselda and the following children: John, Joseph, Griselda, James and Benjamin. Any information would be appreicated.

I need to find out if a coroner's report exists for my grandfather's death in 1941. He died in Chattanooga of an accidental gunshot wound. I suspect that a coroner's report and perhaps a police report would have been generated. Does anyone know where I would write to find this information?

I am eventually going to drop my AOL address. I will keep AOL for another week or so. The new one will be the same screen name(dwad1939) @earthlink.net.. If you don't know who I am. Just delete this email. Thanks, Dave Waddell
