I don't know if I have posted this before or not, but I have posted quite a few Duke graves on Find A Grave from the various Darden cemeteries. I am going to try to get quite a few from Corinth posted there this spring when I have a bit more time. I also have some old family photos I am slowly uploading to Find A Grave. The link for Find-A-Grave Corinth Cemetery is http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gsr&GScid=2129117 Renee

Below is a website with information about CORINTH BAPTIST CHURCH. It includes a photograph. There is information about the school also. http://freepages.religions.rootsweb.com/~meligailaldridge/Corinth/ <A HREF="http://freepages.religions.rootsweb.com/~meligailaldridge/Corinth/">Corinth Baptist Church - Darden, TN</A>

re: It is called "Scotts Hill a Community on the Move" Thank you Mrs. Taylor. Linda

I need help with an event. Henry Newman was the founder of the Corinth Baptist Church in Henderson County TN. Henry married Sussan Reeves my gg aunt. Henry and Sussan Newman had a son Dutton Newman and according to my records the entire family died on June 1900. This had to have been something like a murder or house fire or whatever. Does anyone know of any record of this. It could be a bad record but not likely. Their 5 children's ages ranged from 10 down to 5 years old. Dutton was 44 and his wife was 47. Any help will be appreciated. Billy Reeves

It is called "Scotts Hill a Community on the Move" and it was written by Harley and Katherine Walker. It is a paperback book and it is 108 pages long. It picks up where Gordon Turner's book left off in the 70's and goes up to 2004. It is mostly informative and tells what has happened to the city during this timeframe. I would not use it for family research except to just see if mention of family members were in it.

Dear Listers, I have tracked down the burial site of Richard E Reeves and his wife Eliza M Miller Reeves to the old Duke Chapel Cemetery off Mt.Arat Road near Darden. I need help with the following children of Richard E Reeves all born in Henderson County Tennessee: Sarah Reeves b.1828 Buried @ Corinth Baptist Church Samuel H. Reeves b.1830 Buried @ Corinth Baptist Church Seraphina Reeves b.1834 Burial Site Unknown Richard L. Reeves b.1838 Burial Duke Chapel Cemetery (Died from wounds received in CW. Died at home) Josephine Reeves b.1840 Burial Site Unknown (Previously had contact with descendants from Utah) Harriet Reeves b.1844 Burial Site Unknown Hezekiah B. Reeves b.1847 Burial Duke Chapel Cemetery I know some of the Daughters married Derryberry's or/and Box's or/and Davis etc. I need to communicate with Mr. Guy Derryberry if I can locate him. Thank You, in advance, for your help. Thanks to the help of some of you I have filled-in a bunch of blanks within the last 2 weeks. Billy F Reeves My Line: me > Arthur Fane Reeves b.1907 Dyer County > Samuel Wesley Reeves b.1876 Henderson County > James Lee Reeves B.1833 Henderson County > Richard Early Reeves b.1789 Pitt County NC, d.1890 Henderson County

Steve, I got a bounce on the stuff I attempted to send to you. Please check and let me know. Billy

The REEVES, REIVES, RIVES and ... can be tracked back to vector with the ancient RYVES. You can see this by browsing the internet. I will keep hunting the reference I have in my files to validate the King James Commission to a RYVES. Meantime ... look at the slide show prepared by a minister Thomas Mowery. It is a condensed version of what we were talking about before. Approximately 1611 William RYVES was a member of the Oxford Team to translate a portion of the bible. http://www.biblebelieversbaptist.org/making_monarch.ppt Enjoy! BR

Steve, When you get your private information email info back to me, I will be able to send you about a gig of information on the RIVES line which includes pictures, docs and such. You are definitely correct, a RIVES (whatever flavor he was Reeves Reives Ryves) a RYVES derivative did receive the commission from King James to translate the KJV Bible. He was the superintendent (for the lack of a better word) placed in-charge of the translation team. I will get you a reference on that story, sometime, soon. Thanks, BR

Steve, Somehow I dropped-off your email address while purging my files but remembered you being on the Henderson County List. Since the name REEVES may be spelled REVES, REAVIS, REAVES, REEVE, RIVES and etc, I thought you might be interested in what this lady may have to offer. She has some pretty interesting background information about the Texas line. You can contact her by going onto REAVIS@rootsweb.com I still haven't heard back from Mrs. Stallings of VA authorizing the release of her e-address, concerning the RIVES Line. When you get this, please email me so I will have a way of sending you the RIVES stuff. Billy Reeves

Thank you very much for your help! John B. Researching Browns/Harts of Scotts Hill area.

Thank you LFLENT for your efforts and the look-up. It seems someone should have some records if, in deed, Richard E Reaves was a school teacher in 1870 at Broadies Landing. I don't know where to begin and I guess that is what I am trying to do now, is begin.

My gg grandfather Richard E Reeves/Reaves b.1790 NC is shown in the 1870 Decatur County Census as teaching school at Broadies Landing. I have hunted (to my limited ability) every place and can't find a trace of him or his wife Eliza. His wife was Eliza Miller and was 15 years younger. Richard had one son (Hezekiah) living before him and Dela Reeves living down the road from him. Dela was D. Lafayette Reeves and he is buried in the area. Hezekiah showed-up in the same area in the 1880 census but vanished after that. I am from Richard's son James Lee Reeves b. 1833 Darden, then coming on down through Samuel Wesley Reeves b.1876 at Darden. James Lee and Samuel went on to populate Dyer County with Reeves. I think Hezekiah's children are probably sprinkled all around Darden and out in Henderson and Decatur County and may spell their surname as Reaves. I think Richard is probably buried in some small private plot in someone's field between Darden and Broadies Landing. Some may have driven by a hundred times and have not thought anything about it. We started a cemetery here on our place and buried my mother-in-law there in 2004. It is the Dogwood Hill Cemetery. I am in Erin, Houston County, TN. How many are out there that only people that circulate through the area know about. I read someplace that meter readers are really good people to interview....I don't know.

Ms. Taylor: Re: Scotts Hill by Harley Walker If there is a copy of tha above book at the Decatur County, TN, library, how long is this book and does it contain an index? The Tennessee State Library and Archives in Nashville, TN, did not list an author Harley Walker. Thank you. Linda

This sounds like something very valuable to have in your possession. Does anyone have any idea if it will cover the area around the old community of Broadies Landing. I have heard there are some old uncharted cemeteries in that area which leads me to ask, "Does anyone have any idea if there is anything written that would be inclusive of the Broadies Landing area?" I appreciate these two lists and how friendly and helpful you have been! These two lists represent about 90% of the central nest of my ancestry. Coming from these areas are the Reeves', Turnbo's, Warren's, Pitts', Prader's and ... I thank all of you for the responses!

It is around two to three miles from Scotts Hill city limits although I am not sure how far you would have to travel down the road to find the cemetery in question.
