Hi to all, Last months messages hit 86, that is more than has been posted here in awhile. I am not the list owner here but thought it might be fun to list one most wanted ancestor that you have in Hancock County, TN. Not just surnames but one person who was in Hancock County, Tn and you need info on... You might want to consider posting it also to the query board on the Hancock County site so that anyone who is coming to the site will see it, they may not be on this list... The only way to find information is to post and sometimes post again:) New people to the list may not be familiar with the way they work and may not know that they can view the archives...I did not know for awhile myself. To help weed through the posts to the list put your ancestors name and a date if you know it not just Most wanted... If are a member of the Yahoo group you might want to post it there as there seems to be a few members who found that group from the Hancock County site... Just a thought for keeping the list going:) Carol Turner Owner of "Looking Back " Newsletter, http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~lookingback/welcomepage.htm Hancock County TN, TNGenWeb County Coordinator http://www.tngenweb.org/hancock/ Yahoo Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Hancockctygenealogy/ Johnson County, TN, TNGenWeb County Coordinator http://www.tngenweb.org/johnson/ Claiborne County, TN AHGP County Coordinator http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnclaib3/

Thanks Carol and great idea! I am looking for information on Perry Mills born abt 1844 in the War Creek area of Hancock County and is listed in the 1850 Hancock Census. He was the son of Hezekiah "Carr" "Kiar" Mills and Rosa Wolfe Mills. Hezekiah and Rosa's children were Telitha Mills Walker buried on Enos Ferguson's property. Peter Mills was born 1836 and died in Cass County, Missouri in 1874. John Finland Mills, married to Mary Leger, died in Hancock County and buried across the road from Enos Ferguson's property in McCoy\Mills Cemetery. Jesse Berry Mills married Mahuldah (Hulda Howling) Wolfe and died in Springer, Oklahoma, and William Riley Mills born 1840 and married Alice Jane "Ally" Barnard. So Perry is my missing link from Hancock County and he is not in the 1860 census. I have tried all census and can not locate. I suspect that he died before 1860, but no proof or info. Thanks again Carol! Great Idea.
