Tere, There was an article in the Clarksville Leaf Chronicle on 9-10-1928 regarding Captain George Hatton Weems who was visiting his relatives in Clarksville Judge John T. Cunningham and E. C. Cunningham. It does mention several other relatives in the article if you cant get the article let me know and I will type it out for you it is 3 paragraphs. It does mention Captain Weems Homeplace was on the Dickson/Montgomery Counties line and the bedroom he was born in was in Montgomery County Side.
