    2. Barbara: My great grandmother, Mary (Polly) Ann Gregory, daughter of Smith and Rebecca (Kemp) Gregory, first married James Newton Parker, son of William and Elizabeth (Williams) Parker. They lived in Polly Ann Hollow, which is just north of the Will Gregory Cemetery and south of The Sycamore Valley Baptist Church on Peytons Creek. It is now in Macon County but right on the Smith/Macon county line. Family rumor is that James Newton went to Red Boiling Springs and joined the army. He died (apparently from a disease) in December 1863. Polly Ann then married his older brother, Richard. They had 3 children (one was my grandmother) and in 1878, she took the children and moved to Madison County, Missouri leaving Richard behind. We have never been able to locate any records on James Newton or Richard. Would the list you mention have either of them? I would like to find where they are buried. Regards, Curt Johnson
