He has had it in a zip lock bag to keep the dust off it. I would like to help him protect this treasure for his grandchildren and do not believe the zip lock bag is a good idea. I keep my old Bible wrapped in a soft white linen cloth in a drawer. I know not to have it exposed to sunlight. I would like to have a glass box made as a home for my Bible. I would appreciate any suggestion anyone would have about how to help my friend. I have not been able to contact anyone at an archive for help. Thanks in advance.

If there is a book with birth dates, then someone has made it up from other records. The first census to give birth month and year was the 1900 census, and those dates are often appear to be wrong--e.g., they don't always match up with earlier census records. There are a variety of reasons for that. Sometimes birth dates can be found in pension files or other government documents.

James Sizemore was on the 1799 tax list of Hawkins Co., TN; in Knox Co., KY by 1818; Harlan Co., KY, 1819; listed in Clay Co., KY, census in 1820; and died in 1824. A son John, born January 1822, had his biography printed in Goodspeed's History of North West Arkansas, originally published by Goodspeed Publishing Co., Chicago, 1889. Here is the first part: "John Sisemore, merchant and farmer, was born in Clay County, Kentucky, in 1822, and is a son of James and Elizabeth (Fields) Sisemore. The father was born in Kentucky (probably an error) where he spent his life engaged in farming, and died in 1824. The mother was a native of Tennessee, and survived her husband by one year. John Sisemore lived with a cousin until fifteen years of age, in Harlan County, Kentucky, after which he spent some time in Washington County, Arkansas.” Any informa! tion about this family will be appreciated.

I've run into some problems and could use any help you could give as well. I have a Wilder Family book from the southern states that has alot of info. This book was given to me by my grandfather and was kept pretty up to date until around 1970. There are several of these floating around the U.S, so you may of heard of it. On Hews Wilder. He was born in 1835 in Sneadville, TN and died in 1893 in Kentucky. His parents were Richard Drinnon who I really can't find much info on. He married Betsey and appears took on her name as did the children. I've asked family members if anyone knew anything re: why and no one knows. Betsey was born in approx 1807 in Tennesee. Hews is my great-great grandfather. He had a son named Thomas Wilson Wilder who had my grandfather Willard Harrell Wilder. Do you have any info on further back than Betsey Wilder and Richard Drinnon? I need info on pretty much everyone after them. I have sketchy info, but I'm new to this and struggling. I hope we can help one another. Would love to know where you fit into the wilder line.

Melissa, first of all thank you for taking the time to assist us in our search. I am looking for death information on Ellen Morris who died between 1910 (in the 1910 census) and 1920 in Knoxville Tennessee. She was a seamstress in Knoxville. Daughter of George Morris below. Also George Morris who lived in Knoxville Tennessee anywhere after 1920 (in the 1920 census) and before 1930, born in Virginia 1835 or 1836, survived by his wife Sally and several children. Lived at 220 Hazel Pl in the 1920 census. Thank you Kay Bailey

Below is written by Netherlands daughter and since this document Jack Goins sent proved that her dad was an attorney involved with the voting trials, it gives more credit to what she wrote: "By the Constitution of 1834 all persons of color were deprived of the franchise in Tennessee, and by an especial act of the legislator these people were given the right to vote. To prove they were not Negroes, the beautiful hands and feet of some of the race were examined, and the marked difference between them and the Negroes decided the question in their favor. The late John Netherland of Tennessee obtained the right of for them, and their deep gratitude was manifested towards him in every way as long as he lived."
