To everyone that sent a response to my question about Christmas celebration. Thank you very much. It was very enlightening. Mike

Can anyone tell me where Nebo Methodist Church Cemetery is & how to get there from Hwy 412 coming from Jackson, TN? Somewhere close to Luray & Crucifer. Thank you for your help, Jane

Interesting question Mike..... Each area has their own customs but my family did the "roundabout." Family members would visit each and every home of family and friends on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. One of those days would be the regular church services that they would attend, greeting some at Church that they wouldn't see during their "roundabout." They would bring fruits decorated in baskets or door decorations of fruits and greenery. Apples were considered a good luck omen, and would always be included in a door hanging. Diner would be the big meal with family and supper was small and what I call pick up suppers, no cooking. The house was not decorated as we do now. The decorations would around the entry inside and the porch outside. -------- This custom was for those that lived in the outlying areas of towns. At New Years someone would start the event, at midnight a rifle or shotgun would be fired. Anyone that would hear this report from the shot, would then fire their gun and pretty soon everyone had wished everyone else a Happy New Year. Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year.......

We were having a discussion last night about How our ancestors celebrated Christmas in the middle to late 1800's. Does anyone know if they spent all day Christmas day in Church, did they exchange gifts ? What was Christmas like in the 1860's/70's and 1880's in the rural south? Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Mike

If there is anyone on this list who connects to WASHINGTON W. DENISON/DENNISON who married Martha Jane FULLER Denison of Henderson Co. TN, can you confirm if I have found their SON GEORGE DENNISON (see below details.) Thank you. Linda Fuller Long, Yorba Linda, CA Ref. MARTHA JANE FULLER DENISON was the daughter of Esq. James H. Fuller and Eleanor MCCALL Fuller of old Lone Elm, Henderson Co. TN. I believe it is Martha's and Washington's son GEORGE DENNISON living in Arkansas with Martha's BROTHER JAMES HENRY FULLER, JR. on the 1900 Census in Newport, Union Township, Jackson Co AR.

If you say Errett quickly it sounds a little like Everett. Mary FULLER, SISTER of James H., 38 yrs. old b Dec 1861 TN She never married. She died in Texas, ca 1929. I have ordered her death certificate. George DENESON, NEPHEW of James H., 19 yrs. old b Oct 1880 AR (AR would be incorrect if this was son of Washington W. Dennison.) JAMES H. Fuller, was recorded as running a bookstore and GEORGE DENESON was recorded as Clerk in Store. Further, in 1901, JAMES HENRY FULLER, JR., left AR to accept pastorate at Christian Church in Athens, Texas. J. H. Fuller married 1st UNKNOWN who died 1899 in probably Newport, Jackson Co. AR 1 son Errett b Dec 1894 AR and 1 daughter Married 2nd Dec 1907 in TX to Bertha Caroline MASON Fuller b AR They probably married in the Christian Church in Sherman, TX, where J. H. Fuller was pastor. He met Bertha in Sherman, TX. I have many sources for James Henry Fuller, Jr.
