    1. [TNMAURY-L] FREEMAN - STOCKARD MARRIAGES abt 1905, also CANEER
    2. Janice R Freeman
    3. List, I need your help. I am looking for the marriage records of two FREEMAN males who were double first cousins who married STOCKARD sisters of Maury Co (poss Columbia or Mt Pleasant areas) abt 1905. They were: Charley FREEMAN who m Betty STOCKARD (no bd, but she died when their dau Bessie Mae FREEMAN was b June 1906 in Mt Pleasant). Millard F FREEMAN who m Bobbie Leona STOCKARD 1889 - 1963. Their oldest child, Maggie Sue FREEMAN, was b 1906 in Mt Pleasant. Millard was the son of Jack FREEMAN and Lucy Elizabeth BUCKINGHAM who later lived in the Florence, AL area. Both families (Charley and Millard) later moved to the Birmingham, AL area. At least one of the men, if not both, may have worked for the phosphate mines in the Mt Pleasant area. Charley's father, Nathan A "Nat" FREEMAN 1861 - 1904 was shot in Mt Pleasant in April 1904. Nat's widow, Margaret Caroline "Maggie" BUCKINGHAM COLLINS FREEMAN later married Edgar CANEER possibly abt the same time period in Maury Co. I think Ed CANEER worked at the phosphate mines, too. He was from Cornersville in Marshall Co. The CANEER's had 3 ch: Edgar, Sadie, and Ruth, all of whom died as young children. The CANEER's moved to Lewisburg when Otis Lewis FREEMAN b 1903 in Mt Pleasant, son of Nat and Maggie, was abt 6-9 years old, appox abt 1909-1912. Is there a marriage record in Maury Co for Edgar CANEER and Maggie FREEMAN ? Were any of these families in Maury Co for either the 1900 or 1910 Census ? Appreciate any help or clues.
