Greetings, I'm new to your list. I have just found a chink in my WHITE family brick wall and it has led me to Meigs Co. I'm glad to be here. Here is what I know so far...I hope you all can add something to it! My gg grandfather (most likely), Daniel W. White (b. 4 Jul 1879) is listed as the son of John N. WHITE (b. ca 1854 in TN) m. to Susan C. (b. ca 1859) in the 1880 census, Seventh Civil District Meigs Co., TN. Susan C. must have been a second wife since she is only 21 and there is a 12 year old daughter, Ida Bell listed. Other children listed are Melbourne R. age 4 and Matilda L. age 3. I found a marriage record on the TNGenWeb Meigs Co. site. John WHITE m. Susan COUCH on Dec 31 1872. There are several COUCH/WHITE marriages listed. I found Susan in the 1870 Meigs Co., TN census. I'm guessing that she was living with her older brothers because the Head of Household was William COUCH age 21, John age 16, Isaac age 13,Margaret, and Matilda (unable to read ages). All of them were listed as born in TN and there was a mark in William's Deaf, Dumb, Blind etc. column. I'm searching for the names of their parents. I can't find them together in the 1860 census yet. Daniel W. WHITE is listed in the 1920 US Census in Cherokee Beat, Colbert Co., AL. His wife Lula V. age 30, Richard R. age 15, Cecil G. age 12, Myrtle L. age 13, Bennie A.? age 7, Dail J.? age 3 10/12, and Jessie C. age under 1 yr. Cora Lee WHITE is my ggrandmother (b. Jan 3 1903 in No. AL or TN) (d. Jun 7 1938) and is buried in Mhoontown Cemetery, Cherokee, Colbert Co., AL. Supposedly, she is the daughter of Daniel WHITE (b. Jul 4 1879 d. Sep 5 1943) and probably Martha Lula UNKNOWN (b. Jan 15 1886 d. Mar 3 1963) buried in Mhoontown Cemetery, Cherokee, AL. There is also a Dessie WHITE (b. Jan 21 1923 d. Jul 26 1939) buried next to Martha and Daniel. Cora Lee was married to Hamley Elisha "Ham" WADKINS (b. Sep 15 1895 in MS d. Dec 15 1959 buried in Mhoontown Cemetery, Cherokee, Colbert Co., AL) and their family lived in AL, MS, and TN. My grandmother Cynthia Pauline WADKINS was their oldest daughter (b. Dec 28 1918 m. to Sam ASKEW in 1938 d. Nov 9 1994). Ham was mostly Cherokee and it has been said by distant relatives that Cora Lee had some "Indian blood." However, they were all listed as White (Caucasian) in the info that I have found. If you have WHITE or COUCH family members I'd love to hear from you. I hope we can connect!
