    1. [TNHARDEM] Wilson/McCarley
    2. Hi, I'm Arlene from California. Any help with the following surnames would be appreciated: WILSON, KIMBROUGH, SALE/SALES/SAILES, MAY, JACOBS, MAYFIELD. I'm researching Jacob R. WILSON and family. Originally from Lauderdale Co., AL, he moved up to Saulsbury from Salem, Tippah Co., MS in the 1870s. He is listed in the 1880 Hardeman Co., TN Census. His son, Columbus C. Wilson, b. Jun 1860, Madison, AR, married Ida MCCARLEY, daughter of Fannie and W. W. McCarley in 1882. He died 1884 and is buried in Saulsbury Methodist Cemetery. I would like to find out what happened to his widow and child/children. Jacob R. Wilson's daughter Mary Eliz. WILSON married Thomas Richard KIMBROUGH in Hardeman Co. in Nov 1874. Their first child, Mattie Geneva Kimbrough, was born in Saulsbury in 1875. They moved over to Sand Hill, Tippah Co., MS by 1878. The Kimbroughs moved to Terrell, Kaufman co., TX in 1886 and the Wilsons moved there in 1887. I am trying to find death records for Thomas Richard Kimbrough's mother, Frances Eliz. (SALE) KIMBROUGH. She died June 1879 "near Ripley," Tippah Co., MS. Samuel A. C. SALE, possibly the brother of Frances Eliz. Sale Kimbrough, moved to Hardeman Co., buying property from his nephew, A. J. (Andrew Jackson) MAY and his wife Mary May in March 1889. S. A. C. Sale's daughters Evie and Blanchie were married to W. R. JACOBS. Some of the Sales and Jacobs are buried in Ramer Cemetery outside of Saulsbury. A. J. MAY and his brother Thomas John May were living in Hardeman Co. in 1870 and 1880 before moving to Texas. A. J. May's first wife, Louisa C. May died Mar 1872 and is also buried in the Ramer Cemetery. Would like to know if Emily Virginia May, d. Aug 1889, is also buried there. Another brother, Samuel W. May was living in Hardeman Co. in 1880 before he moved to Texas. James and Mary MAYFIELD were living in Hardeman Co. in 1820 prior to moving to Illinois.
