Each one is numbered, and identified. Then, each person is indexed. There are currently over 500 photographs but feel I’ve just touched the surface. These photographs include Mary Lucy Swift from about 30 years old to near death Romulus Swift and Sara Paine John James Austin from about 30 years old until near death Charles Austin 8 of Mary Lucy Swift with her children Children of Ephraim Austin taken in 1925 Photographs from Austin reunions in 1939, 1947, and 1949 and later I would appreciate your assistance in adding more. Any photograph of any family member is welcome. Please identify the people in each one. You can scan them onto a CD. I can scan any photograph up to 8” x 10” and will be glad to return the originals. You can e-mail them to me. Even if they are not in good shape, I have software to assist in restoring them. If you’d like to contribute, please send me your family photographs, current and as old as available. I would also like to link the photographs in a family tree, please send your direct line on a GenCom file. I will be making available CD copies of the database. A contribution of the cost will be requested. If any additional funds are donated, they will be donated to an academic scholarship at Adelphi University honoring Sara Selina Swift Paine. The dean of the honors program is one of her great-grand-great grandsons. I shudder to think of the family heirlooms and photographs lost with Katrina. I do not want this happen to us.

If you are a descendant of a son of John and Mary Austin, I need your assistance in identifying pictures taken at the OK and TX Austin Reunions in the late 1940’s. I’ll e-mail them.

Ellis Clayton Hayes was b. 24 Aug 1880, d. 06 Jun 1947. He was the son of John Bateman and Nancy Ann Wilkinson. John Bateman was the son of Samuel M. "Stob Foot" and Malinda Pufford Hays. Stob Foot was the son of Samuel Ellett and Martha B. "Patsy" Davis Hays. A copy of the book "History of the Hays Family" is in the Library in Lexington. This was published several years ago by Freda and Lincoln Hays, and they have made a couple of updates to the book since original publishing. It is no longer in publication. The Alexander line was researched several years ago by Margaret Smith Alexander and Fred her husband. They conducted a very thorough research on our Alexander line. I have complete research of both of these lines. Still waiting to hear from you in private. ----- Original Message ----- From: <mnevin2004@cocmast.net> To: <TNHENDER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2005 2:54 PM Subject: [TNHENDER] Hayes line/ Alexander > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Surnames: Alexander, Hayes > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AgB.2ACE/270 > > Message Board Post: > > I am trying to find out if John Bateman Hayes, grandson of Sam E Hayes, > had a son named Ellis Clayton Hayes. > > I also need in fo on Ellis' wife, Teaner (?)

Hi Kathy, I printed your email out so let me look at my database on the Austins and see what I have that may be different. Do you know if Minerva had a middle name? I had a Suzanne down married to a Kennedy. I believe there were a few other children, Does Matilda who married a Mooney, a Dorothy Ann or a Laura Ann sound familiar. My grandmother is also still alive so I will call her tonight and ask her a few more questions. Do you live in the Henderson area of Tennessee? You are one of only a few that I have talked to looking at this line. I will most certainly want your information to add to my database and I can email you the lineage I have as well. I have a couple of other contacts I can check with as well. Thanks. Karen

You have given me two more generations that I didnt have..I went back as far as Richard being Jerimaiah father..I am the great-granddaughter of John Shade the son of Minerva Jane Austin and Hugh Kennedy.. Any thing I can get will help me on my line...I do have a question.....On John Shades death cirtificate it shows his mother as Sarah Austin and all other information I have says it is Minerva. Do you have anything on this line? Will share anything I have if you will let me know what you need and I will see if I have it....I also saw where there is a new book coming out on Scotts Hill and I am interested in finding where I can get it..

I am looking for a line of Austins with a Noble Austin who lived in/around the Piedmont MO area. This was my grandfather, who supposedly had many brothers that spread and settled in different states. However...my father's name was Charles, and his brother named Richard after their grandfather and great uncle....this makes me curious. Noble Austin 2-19-1906 to January 1984, buried in Wayne County, MO Thanks, Renee ----- Original Message ----- From: <Rachelle65@aol.com> To: <TNHENDER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, August 29, 2005 4:42 PM Subject: Re: [TNHENDER] Re: Scotts Hill, Henderson Co, TN >I came from William, John, Richard, Jeremiah Jerry, and Pleasant Austin. >I > am not sure which Charles you are referring to?

Jimmy, something you might want to try is to contact the correspondent who writes the BLUE GOOSE community column in The Lexington Progress newspaper, Lexington, HeCoTn. Her name may be WILMA COGDELL. At least that is name on a recent Blue Goose column that I have in my scrapbook under Blue Goose. Ms. Cogdell might write about your quest in her column (probably for FREE). I read this column ever issue of the "Progess" as that area is of prime interest to me. I read in Blue Goose column that many of the people who live in that area get together at Poplar Springs Cafe. Also, the Blue Goose correspondent writes about history of that area sometimes as well as its people (from your query, you wrote, WALTER H. WILKINS: "he ran a store/resturant in the Blue Goose area"). If you get the locals talking, you may find a contact. I don't have Ms. Cogdell's address, but below is an email I used to contact the editor of The Lexington Progress, try it to see if "Progress" staff can put you in contact with Blue Goose correspondent. By the way, give "Progess" staff time to contact you, they are sometimes slow. email: The Lexington Progress newspaper, Lexington, TN Lexprogressnews@bellsouth.net  If above email address no longer works for "Progress", then visit www.switchboard.com to find "Progress" address and telephone number. Also, while you are on website of switchboard, might want to search your WILKINS surname, you may spot a relative, just never know. Hope this helps, Linda your query: "I am looking for information on Walter H Wilkins.  He was born in May 1880.  In the 1900 Census, He is living in the household of Mark Wilkins, listed as a nephew.I am told that he ran a store/resturant in the Blue Goose area."

Happened to have my copy of the 1870 Henderson Co census out so looked up the Wilkins family.

re: I am looking for any information on  the Watson Family. Abel Watson b 1812 m Phoebe Hays d 1895. children were William T Watson, Carrie Watson And John Franklin Watson The WATSON I have information about wasn't son of PHOEBE HAYS, but was son of an ABEL WATSON. Briefly, my information on a WILLIAM T. WATSON is that he was a physician, who was b 27 JAN 1852 in SC, to parents Abel and Nancy Taylor Watson. His parents moved to TN in 1854. He first practiced medicine in Lone Elm (now Chesterfield), Henderson Co. TN. He married Virginia "Jennie" SMITH on 02 DEC 1879. "Jennie" b 26 APR 1859 HeCoTn was the daughter of John SMITH and Emeline E. FULLER Smith of Henderson Co. TN. William T. Watson d 20 JAN 1934 in HeCoTn; his wife Virginia "Jennie" SMITH Watson d 31 JUL 1945 in HeCoTn; along with the parents of Jennie were all buried in the Lexington City Cemetery, Lexington, Henderson Co. TN. According to obituary of Dr. William T. Watson in the "Lexington Progress", 5 children were born to he and Jennie: (unknown if this is by birth order) - Dr. Fred C. WATSON - Myrtle WATSON Parker (Mrs. Will Parker) - Gussie WATSON Lassiter (Mrs. Howard Lassiter0 - W. Van WATSON - Alba WATSON Essary (Mrs. E. W. Essary) other survivors of Dr. W.T. Watson: - brother Frank Watson - sister Mrs. Sis Churchill of Decatur Co. TN I research family of Dr. Watson's wife, Jennie". I know a lot about her line, her family has been traced back to Isle of Wight, VA, before 1700's. It seems to me I recall finding some information about father of this DR. W.T WATSON on the website of www.rootsweb.com, click family trees, then advanced search and enter his name. You might check there. Linda
