Mindy, Would you please look up Robert and Michael Price in your books? How about John Kesterson and William Blackwood? Any Dorseys? Are these books available for sale now? I am also researching COX from Darlington Co SC 1800 to Marion Co MS 1825. I research the AKIN family from Williamson Co TN 1800. Do we connect on these? Thanks so much for the lookups!

Looking for any information and/or contacts for the Hunt Family of Hardeman Co. John Hunt and Wilkins Hunt,brothers, arrived in Hardeman Co between 1824 and 1828 I believe. John Hunt son, John Wilkins Hunt, built the Hunt Home that is located just north of Grand Junction. Much of there land was sold to the Ames Plantation. Wilkins Hunt's children settled in Madison Co where they married Dickins. John Wilkins Hunt wrote a short manuscript about the Hunts. I have seen a transcribed copy of a copy of the original, but would love to find the location of the original. John Hunt's eldest daughter was the mother of Lucy Holcombe, who was pictured on the confederate 100 and 1 dollar bills. Once again any information on this family would be wonderful. I have learned much about John, but Wilkins Hunt, my ancestor, has been more difficult.

Looking for Joe Baxer of Hardeman county who at one time owned a farm somewhere around Middleton. He is buried in what used to be known as WILL DOOLEN cemetery.Does any one know of the where abouts of this cemetery in Hardeman county?It may be named something else by now. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you, Bessie Baxter Turley [email protected]

It is NOT indexed, and contains miscellaneous information about Hardeman County history and genealogy, with emphasis on previously unpublished/unprinted material. I do not solicit subscriptions, in fact will not take them at this time. [I do not know whether I will be able to compile it in 1999]. Some of the libraries/archives which have been sent copies from the beginning are: NSDAR Library, Washington DC Allen Co Public Library, Fort Wayne IN Samford Univ. Library, Birmingham AL TN Gen Society Library Brunswick TN Family History Library, Salt Lake City UT TN State Library, Nashville TN Hardeman Co Library, Bolivar TN Briefly, some of the topics have been : marriages from 1861 [beginning after Mr. Quinnie Armour's WPA copied marriages which have been published] to 1890 [in the Jul-98]; abstracts of things like some of the will books, deed books, & John Houston Bill's diary; early land entries; some tax records; some family history tid-bits [no indepth lineages]; registration of voters for 1865; some muster rolls; some bible and cemetery records; etc. Some of this information is of course on microfilm and may be obtained from TN State Archives. Since these twelve years of hodge-podge have not been indexed, finding 'a' name is very time consuming so I cannot offer that service. If I were to be asked for advise of someone starting a newsletter, it would be to index as you go along to save time for your reader and yourself. pat vincent-<[email protected]>
