According to a family letter my gggGrandparents (Isaac and Elizabeth Wise) or their children "lived in the Piney Community just south of Jackson, TN" - perhaps around 1860's, during the Civil War or later. The letter also says that another family member "taught school there". Any ideas or information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time!
