Odd but she says he lived in Stevenson all his life too and I presume she means Stevenson Al.-- He was 21 years old in 1886. I am not sure there wasn't a Sunnyside just outside ( same side of the river) South Pittsburg-- I found a mention of another name man, that died in South Pittsburg and was buried in the City cemetery across the street from Sunnyside manor??????

Dear Gladys, I am thankful for the service of your family members. I'd like to ask about Landon Carter. Do you know how/why that name was selected by your family? Landon Carter was a signer of the Watauga Petition and same name seems to pop up throughout TN as a first and middle name in families. Such as in mine: Landon Carter Reagan. I have not been able to tie the Landon Carter Watauga Signer into my REAGAN family. Landon Carter REAGAN born 1871 was the son of Erasmus Reagan and Nancy Amner Mize. They lived in Sweetwater, Monroe County, TN.

Yes Shelias I have some to add to your list. Marcus K. Carter U.S. Navy burried in Camp Nelson National Mem. Park. Nicholasville, Ky. WW II, and Korean. My brother. David L. Kahofer Vietnam, died of Agent Orange. My son Frank C. Kahofer Germany My son Woodrow Carter WW II Germany My brother Landon Carter WW II Germany My brother Douglas Carter Vietnam Nephew Jeffrey Martyn Nephew Korean Joseph F. Martyn WWII Germany (Prisoner) So Thanks to all them. Also to the ones that are seviceing now. Gladys -- WOW! Homepage (http://www.wowway.com)

Also, I wanted to bring attention to these names of our veterans still with us and say "Thanks!" for all they have done for our country. I know the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day but I also believe we should say "Thanks" to our veterans whenever we have the chance. To all veterans: "Thanks! We Salute You!". Here are some of my relatives who are veterans and we are fortunate to still have with us: My Dad, James L. Nelson WWII Veteran Eighth Army 457 Bomb Group, 750 Squadron, Stationed Glatton, England. My uncles: Charles Nelson, Bill Nelson, Luther Nelson, George Nelson. My cousins: Jay Nelson, Jeff Nelson. Anyone have any veterans to add?

Not sure if everyone knows about this organization, but they are wonderful. They keep alive the memories of men who were killed in WWII. On Memorial Day, they place wreaths on graves of veterans buried overseas. You can join as a collateral relative; I joined under my uncle's name as he died without ever being married or having children. American War Orphans Network: http://www.awon.org/awmain.shtml My veteran ancestors: Samuel C. Thompson (WWI) John McCoy Patrick (WWII - KIA Dec. 25, 1944 - buried @ Luxembourg) Hugh Slaughter (WWII) Keeping their memory alive ...

I think everybody on here should email and tell names of veterans they know or knew--family or otherwise--so we can all remember them and take the time to honor them. Some of my uncles who were veterans and from our area: Halbert (Hab) Cash WWII D-Day Veteran, John Roberts, Jr. Korea Veteran, Clyde Cash WWII Veteran, Bob Roberts WWII Veteran, Bobby Morris Roberts Vietnam Veteran, Roy Roberts Korea (?) Veteran. Great uncles: John H. Nelson WWI Veteran, Abe Glenoy Nelson WWII Veteran, William B. Nelson WWI Veteran. These veterans may be gone but they are not forgotten. Would like to hear from everyone else of any and all veterans who touched their lives.

Remembering my grandfather~ Jack Landis Goff US Army WII HQ Company, 3rd Battalion 5307 Composite Unit CBI Theater (Provisional) Merrill's Marauders Served in Pacific Theater, Panama Canal, Burma February 12, 1913- February 23, 2001 Buried: Mt Garner Cemetery, Decherd Tennessee

Have a safe and sane Memorial Day\Decoration Day and please remember our Veterans that sacrificed so much for each of us, that we may live in freedom and peace. Please if you know of some grave that their descendants are not able to decorate, due to living far away , have all passed on or unable to physically get to the cemetery, or even because they don't have knowledge of the graves location, please put an extra flower on that grave, so all can be remembered. Thanks Betty McBee

Hoping someone on the list might be able to provide some insight into the above mentioned marriage. My great aunt was Lula Davis b. abt 1906 in TN. She is the daughter of William I. Davis and Martha Jane Turner. I was looking for marriage info on Ancestry after Bill mentioned it on the list yesterday and found Claud McBee married Lula Davis on 14 Jan 1928 in Marion county. I was wondering if anyone might have them in their database and would care to share their info with me to see if they are part of my family. Thanks for any help, George Davis

well betty maybe the following ad from 1831 might help you deside about the moonshining. FARM AND GOLD MINE FOR SALE. The subscriber offers to sell his farm, containing 88 acres, situated on the waters of Alston's creek, which empties into Green River. On said farm is a gold mine which as far as has been tested has proved to be rich and valuable. The same will be sold at private sale, for cash; and the purchaser may secure a bargain by examining and purchasing it. Also for sale, two new stills; one set of mill-stones.
