OBITUARY Chattanooga Paper (TIMES?) Oct 24, 1945 MRS. EMMA WELLS DIES AT HER HOME Funeral Services Will Be Held Today at 11 a.m. Mrs. Emma MIDDLETON WELLS, 77 widely known and beloved here for her philanthropic and welfare work over a span of many years, died at her home at 833 Oak Street yesterday morning. Mrs. WELLS was one of the city's best known citizens and was a philanthropist from the time of her early womanhood. She was born at Elizabethtown, KY., on Nov 5, 1867, the daughter of Capt. Hugh MIDDLETON and Mary CARTER MIDDLETON. After her marriage to Mr. WELLS, she went with him to Rockwood, where he was manager of the Roane Coal and Iron Company there. They returned to Chattanooga about eight years later. She was outstanding in welfare work here, not only in the First Presbyterian Church, of which she was a member for many years, but throughout the city. She was a charter member and a lifelong President of the Old Ladies Home, and also was active in the Chattanooga Writers' Club, the Gen. A. P. Stewart Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy, the Chattanooga Women's Press Club and the American Red Cross. INTERESTED IN LEWIS MISSION Mrs. WELLS was also interested in Lewis Mission on Chestnut Street, and she and her husband established the Citico Mission 40 years ago, which now exists under another name. It was at her suggestion that the letters of the missionaries of the old Brainerd Mission were reproduced on microfilm and placed in the Chattanooga Library. Interested in history, she wrote a history of Roane County, and she also wrote much concerning the activities of the women in her church. She is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Edward BLAKE, and one brother, Charles B. MIDDLETON of Hollywood, Calif. Members of her family have requested that no flowers be sent for the funeral. The services will be held today at 11 a.m. at the First Presbyterian Church, with the pastor, the Rev. James L. FOWLE, officiating. Interment will be in Forest Hills Cemetery. Active pallbearers will be John BROWN, Dr. Stewart LAWWILL, Robert FRIERSON, William PRESSLEY, Clifford DUKE, and Sam CHESTER. Honorary pallbearers will be the elders and deacons of the church. They will meet at the church at 10:15 a.m. (This is a 2nd cousin twice removed of mine - does anyone have any MIDDLETONS, WELLS, or CARTERS?) ** Charles B. MIDDLETON (her brother) was an actor in Hollywood "Best remembered as that satanic practitioner of doom, Emperor Ming the Merciless, in the famous 'Flash Gordon' serials of 1936 through 1940." http://us.imdb.com/Name?Middleton,+Charles+(I Thank you, Donna Fitzgerald Hamilton Co., TN dbfit@bellsouth.net

If you live withing driving range of Chattanooga, the library there has the death certificates on microfilm up to mid 1950's or so. FYI, if you need ones for Alabama deaths the library at Wallace State Jr. College in Hanceville has them on microfilm also up to mid 1950's or so

Barbara, Try Tennessee State Library and Archives 403 7th Avenue North Nashville, TN 37243-0312 ATTN:  Research You can send an email to RLee@mail.state.tn.us to find out exactly what year's they carry for death records, the cost and parameters for search. Going off info I've received for birth and marriage records, I'd say it's $5 a search, 6 week wait, and dates prior to 1908. Tenn Vital Records has birth and death certs for July 1, 1908 to June 30, 1912 and after Jan 1, 1914. Marriages after 1945. Good luck. Renea

Does anyone know where I can obtain death records for 1885 for Hamilton County? Barbara from San Diego

Good luck today found my great great grandfather at national cemt. buried under wrong name.

Billie, Send a letter to Tennessee State Library and Archives 403 7th Avenue North Nashville, TN 37243-0312 ATTN: Research They have the records for Hamilton County prior to 1950 for marriages and 1879-1907 for birth records. There is a $5 fee for the cost of the research. If the record is not found they will send you a letter and the $5 goes to the cost of the research. If you search a birth record make sure you note Early Chattanooga Birth Records on your request. For a marriage you need to provide the names of the groom and bride, date of marriage (or a five year range to be searched), and County of marriage. They also say there could be a waiting period of up to six weeks. Good luck. Renea

I'm new to researching in Hamilton Co, TN and need a little guidance. I'd like to get a copy of a marriage record from 1874. Is the County Clerk the right place to go for this? Does anyone know the cost? I assume I can get the address off their web site. Thanks, Billie Searching LEE in Hamilton Co, TN

Hi, The 1860 census has some families of interest living at Zion Hill, Hamilton Co., which according to postings, operated July 25, 1848 to February 14, 1857 and again from July 27, 1858 to September 22, 1866. Could someone tell me what area this would be near today? Thanks very much! Debbie

I received from the Tennessee State Library & Archives an obituary of my possible ggrandfather. The date is October 10, 1885. Is there anyway I could follow up on this three line obituary? "Wm Farris, well known in the First district, died Wednesday of dropsy of the heart" It was under "Deaths in the County." I believe he died in Daisy, TN the article was from the Chattanooga Daily Times. Any help will be appreciated Barbara from San Diego
