Hey Brenda, I'm not sure where Mary Elizabeth BRADLEY is buried, but she died abt 1892. She has a daughter Mary E JONES BENSON 1877-1903. Three of her children are buried in Shady Grove Cemetery in Lincoln Co. Another daughter, and my great grandmother, Nurvie JONES BROOKS, is buried in Stewart's Creek Cemetery in Lincoln Co.

Alma: My father John R. Reed was born in Lincoln County in 1898. His father was William Sidney Reed, whose father was James Carroll Reed. James Carroll Reed was born in North Carolina, moved to Williamson County, and died in Lincoln County in 1897. We believe, but no definite proof yet, that James Carroll Reed's father was John Reed of Williamson County, Tn. who married Lavinia Williams. This John Reed moved to Lincoln County and is thought to be buried in Lincoln County. My mother was Nellie Lee Irvin who was born in Williamson County, Tn. and was the daughter of Thomas Dudley Irvin. The line goes Thomas Dudley, Jessee Iverson, Andrew, and Christopher Irvin, Jr., Christopher Irvin, Sr. Hope we can make a connection. Joyce (Reed) Cleveland Punta Gorda, Florida

Hello, What is the cost of the Moore County, TN heritage book? Does it have an index at the moore county site (what is the address?) with an index of included names/families?

Rita, I have a Mary BRADLEY born abt 1838 and then I have Elizabeth born 1854 So did your Mary Elizabeth stay in Lincoln Co after marrying and having children? Do you have any places where any of her children are buried? Do you know where she is buried? I bet our Bradleys are related.

Mary Elizabeth Bradley's first child, John, was born in 7-12-1874 in Lincoln Co and died 6-17-03. I would guess her to be around 15-20 when he was born so her birth date could be around 1859-1864. -----Original Message----- From: Brenda Campos [mailto:brecampos@mho.com] Sent: Friday, January 07, 2005 10:36 AM To: TNLINCOL-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [LCT] Bradley, Brooks, Jones, Wooten Rita, I have an Elizabeth and a Mary Bradley in my files that I have no husband for.

Bill, at one time Frances West would do look ups for a fee. I do not know if she does it anymore and I no longer have her address. Perhaps someone else on this list does. If you are looking for deeds they are at the Fayetteville Court House as are the wills do believe you have to have someone to go there to do look ups. But if you are looking for marriage licenses, bond, probate records and some legal records you can write for them at the Archives. The address is Lincoln, CO. Archives, 1000-B West Washington ST. Fayetteville, TN 37334. Just send a letter telling them who and what you are looking for. Be sure and send a self address stamped envelope so they can write back what they have and how many pages and the cost. The charge 25 cents per copy plus postage. I have ordered sooooo much from them that I send a money order, they do accept checks, and a bunch of large 10 x 14 envelopes with my address on each of them so they do not have to go out and buy them. I try to have everything ready for them so they can just make copies and send them on. They are very helpful. Julia .
