    1. [TNMARSHA] William & Nancy Swiney/Swinney Burial Site
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Swiney, Swinney, "Sweeny," and all the endless variations Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/zhB.2ACI/1108 Message Board Post: Does anyone have access to cemetery records from Marshall County, who could tell me where William and Nancy Swiney/Swinney are buried? They were living in the Farmington area in the 1870s, and had been long time residents of Marshall County. William Swinney's will does not mention his wife, Nancy, so presumably she predeceased him. He died between 1876-August 1877. William was born in North Carolina between 1795-1798, and Nancy was born in Georgia in 1802. William was doing quite well before the war, and at the time of his death, still owned 160 acres in Marshall, and some land in Bedford, so he wouldn't have vanished without a trace. There would have been a headstone. Swiney Hunting is maddening at the best of times. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
