    1. [TNHENRY-L] Look Up - c1850 OLIVE - WILLIAMS
    2. David L. Snow
    3. Hi Folks, May I ask if someone could do a lookup for me in the Henry County Chancery Court, Circuit Court or County Clerk Minute records around 1850 for a "guardianship" or "bonding out of" a Nancy OLIVE, age 1, who in the 1850 Henry County Census is recorded with the family of John Henry WILLIAMS, Jr. and Elizabeth (LEE) WILLIAMS in the 15th District. Mary OLIVE, age 17, is recorded as living just down the road with the family of William M. WILLIAMS. Nancy OLIVE md. James Monroe WIMBERLEY, and is my wifes 2g-grandmother. It was always presumed that Nancy was a WILLIAMS, however the historical data indicates that she was an OLIVE, and just adopted into the Williams family. Nancy & James Monroe named their 1st daughter Mary Olive Shelly Wimberley. The data suggests that Mary OLIVE was either Nancy's sister or mother. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dave
