I have a listing of the 13 children for Jessie and Eliza. I "think" that Jessie's father is James McAfee, do you have any information on this?

In Court Records when Thomas McAFEE died it lists 16 people supposedly 17 siblings ( will have to find all of this, I haven't worked this line for about 3 years now) I'm looking for any tid bit I can find on these 17 McAFEE kids which I think are all brothers and sisters. 17 siblings were McAFEE 1.

    3. Brenda, I made a mistake on the year that Will Taylor McAfee was born. It should be 19 June 1849. Sorry

    3. Hello Brenda, I have Jessie McAfee and his wife, Eliza McCree in my records. Their son, Will (William)Taylor McAfee, born 1847, married a 1/2 sister of my grandfather. She was Sarah E Wakefield. Sarah, and my John McKinney's mother was Elizabeth Wakefield McKinney. I do not have any records on Mr Wakefield, other than what shows up for the children in the 1850 and 1860 census records for LCT. Elizabeth married William McKinney in 1840, Lincoln Co., TN. I have a listing of the 13 children for Jessie and Eliza. I "think" that Jessie's father is James McAfee, do you have any information on this? Dortha McElroy Greenlee

    3. Well John, I have spoken several times to state archeologist, Nick Fielder,and he believes that we simply need stricter laws. When I have spoken to those in the legislation, they are supportive, but there is just no one to be much of an advocate. I believe that our local historical and genealogical societies should petition their state affiliates to take some action, but just haven't found exactly the right ear to bend on this matter! As long as the current bill has been there, I'm just not sure how many folks really do care. -Sherry At 09:04 PM 10/26/2006 -0600, you wrote: > > > >Today's Topics: > > 1.

    3. My TEAGUE line is somewhat limited. It seems that perhaps my Wallace TEAGUE came out of SC, but there has been no findings there to support this. He was in Greene Co., TN, then on to Sevier Co., TN in the 1860's. His family is found there in 1870, so suppose that he died there. http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=teague& id=I91 I don't have anything on the TOLLY line except that Judith TOLLY married John WHITSETT who was from VA.

    1. Re: [TNLINCOL] Robert Lee Bedwell
    2. Sonja, 1900 Hunt Co Tx spelling is Cottrell, E.L., (Elias Lucky), Race Charlie, Robert and Daily Jenkins Cottrell, 3 are in the 2nd dist, one is in the first dist. Daily J in 1910 is David J Cattrell in Comanche Co OK., his brother Stephen Emmons living with him. Cant find Daily after that. As is brother Willis spelled Cothell. Race Charlie is in 1910 in Garvin Co OK, (cant find him in 1920). As is brother Robert. As is brother Stephen E. Willis in 1920 Garvin Co Ok spelled Cottell. 1910 Elias is living in Jefferson Co OK in his dau Sarah Sheltons household. Elias died 1917 in Garvin Co Ok. James is in Hunt Co Tx 1910 I think, that's the only one I could find that might be him. Did find something that said he was murdered there in 1915.. Anything you can add to this would be great. Did you know that Elias Cottrell sold his lands to Jesse Warren in Limestone Co Al. Jesse Warren then sold them to his wife Sallie 3 years later, not sure why he would do that, sell the lands to his wife. That was 1894-1897, find the last mention for Jesse Warren in 1898 Lincoln Co Tn. Sallie in 1900 is in Indian Territory spelled Waren, living with her is Annie, also with last name of Waren, but this Annie was Willie (female, and dau of Sallie) child, Willie died in childbirth. Some say that Jesse Warren is buried in Hunt Co Tx. It is interesting that the Cottrells married the Warren girls who belonged to Daniel D. and Lucy Warren. And that they, Dan D. wind up in OK also.

    2. Carolyn Whittenburg
    3. ...looking for any information on the Harris children, Thomas age 11, George age 10 and Nancy A. age 8, living in the household of George and Susan Kirkland and James and Martha Patterson in Sub Division No. 2 of Lincoln Co., TN in 1850. Nancy Patterson, age 51, is also in the household, along with children of the Kirklands and Pattersons. My family is the Harrises, and I seem to have hit that proverbial brick wall here! I have Thomas Harris, age 21, in Dist. 1 of Lincoln Co., TN in 1860, with his wife "Airy". I know that Thomas and Airy are mine, so I feel reasonably sure that the young Harris children of the 1850 census are probably mine. Information on the Kirklands and Pattersons would also be welcomed--they are possibly related. Thanks in advance for any info at all!!!

    1. Re: [TNLINCOL] Robert Lee Bedwell
    2. Sonja, Elias Cottrell is in Hunt Co 1900, along with his married sons except for James and Willis. It was hard to find them, as the last name spelling would be crazy. James I think I found in Hunt Co 1910, by then most of the rest of Cottrells were in OK, as were the Warrens and Sallie Duncan Bedwell Warren Lane. Cindy

    1. Re: [TNLINCOL] Robert Lee Bedwell
    2. Cindy, Can't find Willis G. Cottrell or Robert Lee Bedwell in 1900. Supposedly Elias Lawrence Cottrell was also in Hunt County, Texas in 1900, but haven't found him yet. My guess would be that Willis & Sally Maud might be with him. Also, it appears that Daniel Warren and Lucy Rose were also in Hunt County, TX in 1900. Hunting for Robert lee Bedwell in Hunt County, Texas is complicated by the presence of the Mississippi branch of the Bedwells in the same county.

    1. Re: [TNLINCOL] Robert Lee Bedwell
    2. Sonja, I am especially interested in finding Robert Lee Bedwell in 1900....I found his mother in Indian Territory with occ. of "farming in Tx", her g-dau Annie was living with her, (she dau of Willie who died giving or right after Annie's birth)...I cant find Willis Cottrell in 1900 either. I wish I could find them in 1900. I found most all of Elias Cotrells family in Tx, then most went to OK, which in 1900 was still Indian Territory. I have learned that Jesse Warren had married a second time to a Nancy Sanders and they had 4 kids, the youngest b. 1891, when Nancy died (giving birth) and Jesse m. a third time to Sallie Duncan Bedwell. Sallie by 1900 had given the Warren kids up, and I have found 3 of them in 1900 Tx, cant find one of them tho, and cant help but wonder if the Warren kid (Jesse) and Robert Lee Bedwell are both living in the household of Willis Cottrell. I have found some deeds in Limestone Co Al where Jesse Warren had bought his lands from Elias Cotrell. Some descendants say that Jesse Warren (Daniels son) died in Tx just right before 1900, anyone know if that's correct? Cindy

    10/26/2006 12:31:10
    1. Re: [TNLINCOL] Robert Lee Bedwell
    2. Cindy & Ginny, The correct Robert L. Bedwell is the one b. 19 Jan 1884 TN, d. 29 March 1974 in Garden Grove, Orange Co, CA. I have been unable to locate him in the 1900 census. Mary Ruth Bedwell & Marjorie Bedwell are the children of Ora Mildred Harris. The other three belong to Annie Lee Parker. Robert Lee Bedwell is the son of Marion Jacob Bedwell b. 6 August 1848 in LCT; d. 29 April 1887; m. Sarah (Sally) P. Duncan on 12 November 1872 in LCT. Marion Jacob Bedwell is the son of John Burton Bedwell and Pheraby Ann Ray. Sally Maud Bedwell daughter of Marion Jacob and Sarah P. Duncan b. on 30 May 1880 in Houston County, Tennessee, not Houston, Texas; d. 1934 in Katie Garvin County, Oklahoma; m. Willis G. Cottrell in Limestone County, Alabama on 4 July 1895. Willis was the son of Elias Lawrence "Lucky" Cottrell and Matilda Moody. Willis Cottrell, Elias Lawrence Cottrell, and Sally Maud Bedwell Cottrell are all buried in the Katie Cemetery in Katie, Garvin County, Oklahoma. Unfortunately, much of the information on Ancestry.com is in error. Major M. Bedwell was born about 1802 in North Carolina not LCT. There is no evidence that he was ever married to Mary K. Long. The correct wife is Mary (Polly) K. White, identified in her mother Lucinda White's will as the wife of Major Bedwell. Mary White Bedwell d. 12 January 1880 in Moore County, Tennessee at the home of her daughter Elizabeth Bedwell Crane. According to one obituary, she was 86 when she died, but another one states that she was 80. She had seven known children. Per her obituary, she outlived all but four of them. The Bedwells in LCT appear to all descend from Major M. Bedwell and Mary K. White through their son John Burton Bedwell and Pheraby Ann Ray. The following are Major & Polly's children: 1. Rebecca Bedwell married Jesse Warren on 3 April 1843 in LCT. Rebecca died before 1880. 2. John Burton Bedwell, b. 26 June 1826 in LCT; d. 29 April 1889 in Cumberland City, Stewart County, Tennessee; m. 1st Pheraby Ann Ray (Rhea) on 19 March 1845 in LCT; m. 2nd Sarah Ann Wells on 15 September 1859 in LCT. 3. Eliza Bedwell b. abt. 1829 in LCT; died before 1880. Eliza is probably a nickname, and she is likely the Louisa Jane Bedwell who married William M. Thompson on 18 September 1851 in LCT 4. Asbury Bedwell b. abt. 1830 in LCT; d. before 1870; m. Louisa J. Davis on 4 July 1854 in LCT. His wife & daughter were living with John Burton Bedwell and Sarah Wells Bedwell in Montgomery County, Tennessee in 1870. 5. Willis L. Bedwell b. 25 December 1832 in LCT; d. 9 July 1891 in Montgomery County, Tennessee; m. Sisley Ann Davis on 14 February 1853 in LCT. 6. Elizabeth Bedwell b. 27 February 1840; d. 12 January 1880 in Moore County, Tennessee; m. Timothy W. (T.W.) Crane on 18 October 1863 in LCT. She died one day after her mother. (Tim Crane later married Martha Ellen Warren on 15 May 1881 in Moore County, Tennessee). 7. Levan Andrew Jackson (LAJ) Bedwell b. 20 July 1841 in LCT; d. 4 February 1920 in Friendship, Crockett County, Tennessee; m. 1st Mary Emaline Stewart on 24 May 1861 in LCT; m. 2nd Mary Francis Spearman on 25 January 1872 in LCT. LAJ Bedwell was a Methodist Circuit Rider. He did not raise his fifteen children in LCT. Sometime between 1841 and 1850, Major, Polly, their unmarried children and mother Rebecca moved to Henderson County, Tennessee. They returned to LCT before 1860. No doubt the move to Henderson County was precipitated by a dust up over baptism involving immersion. Major was defrocked as a Methodist minister in 1841. Among his accusers were William Springer, Francis Wells, Thomas Wells and J.W. Spearman, families of two of his future daughters-in-law. Regarding Caleb Bedwell, since he was 20 years older than Rebecca McNatt, it is probable that he was married twice. Rebecca was born in Delaware, not LCT. I have never found a name for the possible first wife, however. Caleb and Rebecca had two known sons. In addition to Major, there was a son John Bedwell b. abt. 1805 in North Carolina not LCT. He also moved to Henderson County, Tennessee between 1840 and 1850. John remained in Henderson County and died sometime before 1870. Mother Rebecca stayed in Henderson County with John. Land records indicate that Caleb Bedwell was in LCT by 1809. His exact death date is unknown, but land transactions indicate that he most likely died between 24 June 1824 and 4 January 1827. Sonja

    3. I am sure that is true, Sherry. But can you offer an easier solution? How many times you suppose a person will be denied access to a family burial ground? On the other hand, the land-owner will have legal fees he will have to pay. Actions such as this gets public attention as well. Once the word gets around I am sure gaining access to great-grand-mas grave will get easier. John ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charles O.

Some land owners can get a tad cranky just over accusations. My Lincoln Co SHULL Family Cemetery is a good example. I live so far away that it is like trying to communicate with the Mars explorer so I have to rely on a few local folks in LCT. As I was informed, the land owner bulldozed the wrought iron fence, monuments and what ever markers were there and built a barn over it. The Lincoln Co Sheriff came out and stopped the contractor doing the work but proceeded to have a heart attack later and died. I called the sheriff detective and she said she didn't know if all the work had been stopped because they heard no more complaints and did not revisit the sight. I asked some other folks to take a look from the road and the landowner called me long distance and accused me of harassing him. I assured him I was not and only wanted to know the condition of my family cemetery. He sent photos of the SHULL monument and some other stones in a plot with some small trees. The monument had a gouge in that the cat driver hit with his blade but things look normal to me except the iron fence is gone. So you see it can be a touchy situation even from afar so it's best inquire friendly like from the landowner to visit your cemetery. Hope the House Bills clear up some things.

    2. Mark & Sherry Finchum
    3. I certainly understand about rude people who are trespassing. Genealogist from my experience are very cautious about entering property that belongs to another. I have had the fortunate experience when I have visited my ancestors gravesites in Lincoln, Moore, and Marshall. I have been able to do so. I do have ancestors who are buried in Marshall County in a family graveyard that has had all of the field stones bull-dozed to one end of the field, then corn planted on the same area. Another cousin and myself have requested to go on the land and to re-erect the fieldstones and return it to it's rightful cemetery, but have been denied that request by the current landowner. This is a documented cemetery which appears in all of the cemetery books. There is no law because we cannot find a document from land transactions that set this aside as a family cemetery that will allow us to do so. Below is a current bill that will help to strengthen the cemetery law that is now on the books. Please write to your legislative representatives and ask them to support it when it comes back to the floor. http://www.legislature.state.tn.us/bills/currentga/BILL/HB2454.pdf Information on this page is generally current to within an hour. *HB2454 by *Jones S, *Shepard.

Fiscal Summary for *HB2454 / SB2551 Increase Local Govt. Expenditures - Not Significant Bill Summary for *HB2454 / SB2551 This bill would prohibit persons from going to cemeteries or graves that are located on private property unless the person has first notified the property owner, occupant, or both, and unless the person is coming onto the property to visit a grave site, maintain the grave site or cemetery, bury human remains, or conduct genealogical research. The landowner would be allowed to designate a particular access route to the graves or cemetery if no obvious route is visible. Those persons accessing the property would be liable to the landowner for any damage occurring from their access and would be expected to refrain from causing damage to the property. Any eligible person denied reasonable access to graves or a cemetery located on private property could seek injunctive relief from the chancery court of the county in which the cemetery or graves are located. Herein lies the problem still, if the denial is made, it becomes the responsibility of the person who wants access to file a petition to the courts to allow this. I'm sure that the court costs are not going to be paid by the landowner! -Sherry Jesus is my rock!

    1. Re: [TNLINCOL] Cemetery Laws
    2. Donna Hanlon
    3. Texas also has laws on the books. There is a permit form online that can be printed to show the landowner. The rights of ingress & egress are limited to twice a year(fall and spring). I've helped with a lot of genealogical cemetery surveys and we never have problems with landowners giving permisssion to survey. I guess it would be a real pain if there was steady procession across their land of people to view tombstones. I could see where a decoration day or specific days of entry would be a better approach in all fairness to the landowner. He could make sure his prize bull wasn't running loose in the pasture. that would be to the best interest of family member wanting to view the cemetery too. I think you can see this permit and laws on the TXGenWeb site and navigate to cemetery project. Lewter Cem in Giles county was in similar disarray, but there was a family member from NC, I think, that came out once a year to weedeat and mow and do gneral cleaning. this cemetery is now fenced and in better shape. It is still visited, as there were new silk flowers on our ancestors' graves when we were there in 2000. >From: "john v. burns" <[email protected]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: <[email protected]> >Subject: Re: [TNLINCOL] Cemetery Laws >Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2006 18:13:57 -0400 > >Sherry, > >Are you talking about legislation in Tennessee?
