Hi all I am still trying to nail down the marriage of Susanna Martha GIBSON b. New Market, Jefferson Co. TN abt. 1791. I know that she was in Martin Co. IN as early as 1830 living with her husband Benjamin COOPER. They are still there until sometime in 1871 when they moved down to Delaware Co. IN where she died on 21 Mar 1871 and is buried next to Benj. COOPER at the Rees Cemetery, Perry Township, Delaware Co. IN. I've been told that Benj. COOPER married contrary to discipline in OH and was disowned by the Society of Friends February 24, 1814. But my understanding is that the GIBSONs were long time members of the Society. So how could he married contrary if he married Garrett GIBSON's daughter? ANYWHO.... I am unable to find any records for the MM in Jefferson Co. TN, I think it was New Market! Can anyone please help?? I would also love to find out the names of their children. I know one of them married a SMITH because 5 of his SMITH grandchildren are living with him in Baker Twp, Martin Co. IN in 1850. Here are the census records for a 30 yr period between 1850 and 1880: 1850 Benj. COOPER listed as 63 Yrs old b. in SC Susan his wife was listed as born in NC age 58 Grandchildren: Benj.

Hi Karen, Those surnames sound very familiar to me, have you checked the Claiborne County Pioneer Website? <A HREF="http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ccpp/pioneer/index.htm">CLAIBORNE COUNTY PIONEER PROJECT </A>http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ccpp/pioneer/index.htm Click on "NAMES" and an index will come up for you to check.

My grandfather, Frank Clayton BRIDGES [sic Sr.], served in the military during WW1. I have found, on the internet, information from my other grandfather's service record... in the state of MO at http://www.sos.state.mo.us/archives/ww1/default.asp . Does anyone here happen to know if TN has a similar site for such a search? How fun it would be to get *that* lucky! Leslie Bridges Kohler Aug67@att.net

Thank you Darlene. Informed citizens are a big step toward preventing the destruction and loss of our cemeteries. If you have problems when you try the link for SavingGraves from Darlene's email, take out the period at the end. It should be like this: http://www.usgennet.org/usa/tn/state/index.html Also check the Friends of Metro Archives website for a list of Nashville area cemeteries with contact information, addresses, phone numbers, etc.: http://www.geocities.com/metroarchives/cemeteries.html

Are there any readers of this list that are researching the WILSON name and ancestors. I am trying to locate those who may be researching GEORGE WILSON probably of Nashville (or Davidison Cty.) who married EUGENIA G KINGSLEY on June 28, 1836. It may be that this WILSON may have been associated with the Nashville Gazette and the Knoxville Gazette. davidk

Can anyone advise me of a web site that lists names of Civil War soldiers from Davidson, Williamson and Wilson Counties, Tennessee? I am trying to find out if one of my relatives (not a direct ancestor..but his son) was in the Civil War. He died at age 22, according to family legend and would have been old enough to have served and died in the CSA. Thanks for any suggestions. Glenda

Hi, I am seeking info on TURNER's from Del Rio, Cocke, Co., Tennessee. I am looking for Dewey and Gracie Turner. Gracie's parents were Newton Turner and Charlottie Townsend/ Towson. Dewey's parents were Mass Turner and Sarah Brown but they were from Madison Co, NC. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thank you, Rhoda LostMtRose@aol.com

Jim, Thank you for the checking into this. Because of this I have found Andrew Stout's wife's full name and the decendants of Black John Stout's brother. You have opened up one of my brick walls, YYYiiippppyyyyy!!!! It is at the Hitchcock Family site you sent. Since Ike's (Andrew and Elizabeth Hitchcock McCoy's son) taxes were paid on 101 aces near the community of Dry Creek, And Isaac Hitchcock is burried at Dry Creek, Also I found a Dry Creek School in Hardin Co. that was listed as historial at the USGS site Bill sent me yesturday, I would bet Dry creek is/was more than just a dry creek bed. I'm all hopped up now, with this new info I'll be here all day like a bird dog broke to wing and shot, till someone tapps me on the side. (more like pushes me out of this chair LOL) Thanks again.......I am on the scent........ <<> I found the below which implies that the mentioned 'Dry Creek' is a > community and not just the creek - had it been, I think they would have > said 'on Dry Creek', but this does seem to link well to the above data.>>> "Sty yu Oginali(i)" <Tsalagi/Cherokee> (Have Strength in Your Journey my Friend(s)!)

131 years ago at this time of year, there was a cholera epidemic that was raging throughout the southern portion of the United States. In Tennessee, the first case was reported in Shelby County on 15 April 1873. By August, cases were reported in Carter and Hawkins Counties in East Tennessee. Congress ordered a study of the outbreak and that a report be made to the President and submitted to Congress. President U.S. Grant presented the report to Congress on 12 January 1875. Images of the Tennessee portion of that report may be viewed at URL: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/tn/misc/cholera/ A text file of the Title pages is available at: http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/tn/misc/cholera.txt Mike FM, Tennessee USGenWeb Archives

I have seen an index which says William T. MONIS is in District 22, page 5A in Weakley County, Tennessee in 1920. I believe this name to be MAYNES or MANESS or MANIS and, as usual, Ancestry.com is down. They must be working on Tennessee, because Weakley County isn't even listed there now. Sure would appreciate someone checking this for me. This is a major brick wall for me. Thanks, Peggy

Dody - A mapquest.com search for 'Dry Creek, TN' returns a community in East Tennessee, southwest of Johnson Ciry and northwest of Erwin in what looks like Greene County. There is a Dry Creek which feeds Pickwick Lake in Hardin County - just to the north of Lauderdale County, Alabama. I found the below which implies that the mentioned 'Dry Creek' is a community and not just the creek - had it been, I think they would have said 'on Dry Creek', but this does seem to link well to the above data. found at: http://www.couchgenweb.com/family/hitch.htm "Isaac Hitchcock was on the Hardin Co. Tennessee Census 1850. A number of these descendants are still living in this areaHe was born in Rowan Co. North Carolina & is burried in the Hitchcock Cemetery at Dry Creek in Hardin Co. Tenn."
