You may already be familiar with Images of America, our pictorial history series, but Making of America is a new narrative-based series, focusing on the history of towns and cities, and their dynamic uniqueness, across the nation. The idea behind Making of America is to map, town by town, city by city, the entire country, creating a quilt of stories to unite the nation. We have only two not yet published Making of America books out of Tennessee and we'd like to see that list grow. Books in this series contain a comprehensive, chronological history of a community's development over the centuries, highlighting major events that had an impact on its citizens and landscape. The narrative consists of roughly 45,000 to 55,000 words and is accompanied by an average of 120 historically relevant images (photographs, postcards, sketches, maps, etc.). Each town holds a unique fragment of United States history; we strive to capture these moments in time for everyone to enjoy in a highly readable and visual way. If you are interested in this new publishing opportunity from Arcadia Publishing or know someone who might be, please contact me at swilliams@arcadiapublishing.com to request a basic information packet. We look forward to hearing from you.

Carroll. According to his death certificate, Delbert was born 11/30/1897 and died 1/21/1968. He was a retired farmer, a widower, and was the son of Henry Carroll and Alice Dean. He was buried in Cobbs Chapel Cemetery, near Hornbeak and the informant was Jennie Montgomery (his daughter?). His wife was Mary Gills Carroll (1/14/1900-6/14/1959). She is also buried in Cobbs Chapel Cemetery. I believe (and this is the part I'm trying to confirm!) that Delbert's mother, was the Alice Deen or Dean, born circa 1881, the daughter of Monroe J. Deen (1854-1922) and Jennie Pyles (1861-1924). Can anyone help me confirm or disprove this information about Alice Dean?

Surnames: JONES Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/TgB.2ACE/2206.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi David, I appreciate the offer of information. I still don't know a lot about my Jones family, but from what I can gather they seem to have lived in Weakley Co., almost exclusively. This may prove to be incorrect when I find out more about them so if it's not too much trouble I wouldn't mind having a look at whatever you might have from 1800 to around 1900. I know that my A. J. Jones (my gg grandfather), son of one of the Williams in my line, died in 1895. I have his will, but only his brother, W. T. (He'd have been born prob. bet. 1810 - 1820.), his sister, Ada, and an Aunt Rebecca Jones are mentioned. He did have other siblings named Sarah H., b. 1812 (married W. S. Scott who owned thousands of acres around McConnell, TN. McConnell was part of Weakley at one time and then Obion - (or vice versa; I don't have my notes in front of me.) due to boundary changes.), and Stephen F., b. 1823. I can share what info I have with you by snail mail if you'd like to have it. At this poi! nt, I have no idea whether there might be a connection between the Weakley and Obion Joneses, but there's always a chance. Since Jones was such a common name, I've found it a difficult line to research. Thanks very much. Brenda
