I don't have access to the census and can't get to a library to check at this time. Would really appreciate thre help Ann

Ruth, In the north west area of Rutherford Co., the Smyrna-Loafer's Corner Community. I believe that there is a connection between the Mullin and the Carter families because of these details. My Carter family came from "Old Virginia" to be the overseer of the Mullin family farm. I have been told that only family would be sent to be put in that position on the farm. Who knows, someday I will find the link to the family I need. In the mean time I have a lot of information on both families and waiting for that link. I am willing to share any information if you think any of this you might be able to use please help fill in my blanks also.

Jim, Thanks for dropping me a note, perhaps we can help each other. My McCulloch family begins in Belfast Ireland with the marriage of Thomas McCulloch and Mary Walker who died in Alamance, Co., NC. They had five sons, my line is Joseph G. McCullough. Yes the spelling changed with this generation. Let me know if you think any of this will help you and I will send anything else I have on the remaining four sons. ----- Original Message ----- From: <Fifthavegnu@aol.com> To: <TNRUTHER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, June 29, 2001 3:09 PM Subject: Re: [TNRUTHER] Fellowship Community - Rutherford County > Anita, > Would be interested in knowing which McCullough lines you are connected with. > Jim > > > ==== TNRUTHER Mailing List ==== > Smyrna Public Library > 400 Enon Springs Road West, Smyrna, TN 37167 > (615) 459-4884 > >

Anita: Could you tell me what the Mullin's Hill Quadrangle is? ruth

Anita, Would be interested in knowing which McCullough lines you are connected with. Jim

Ed, I may not be of any help to you at all but, I thought I would send you this little bit. My Fields, Lannom, McCullough, Barber and others are from Fellowship Community in Wilson County. This little community would have been near the Wilson/Rutherford Co., lines a part of the community was taken in by Percy Priest Lake several years ago. Now, on with the rest of your request I have a LARGE Carter family that intermarries with the my Fields family from that area and lived in Rutherford Co. near Smyrna in the Loafer's Corner and Mullin's Hill quadrangle. Please let me know a bit more about the family you are searching and perhaps I will be able to help out.

Ed, I have a copy of a letter written in 1873 by a Rexanne CARTER to her uncle Aquilla DAVIS of Lavergne, who was my great great grandfather. He was married to Mary MORTON, daughter of James Wilson MORTON and Nancy Newsom Morton. Your name is familiar to me. Did you ever live in Nashville or go to VU?

I'm looking for information regarding Nathan Petty who was born around 1827. He shows up on the 1840 census living next to several other Petty families; Micajah Petty, James A. Petty, and Ambrose Petty. He's not on the 1850 census, but he shows up again on the 1860 census. Does anybody know what the relationship may be between these Petty families? 1860 Cannon Co. census Page 119 Nathan Petty, age 37 Rebecca (wife) age 37 Charles age 19 Jas. age 17 Adline age 12 Martha age 8 (she married Joseph Prater, and they are my husband's 2nd great-grandparents) Nancy age 6 Ambros age 5 William age 2 Did Nathan and Rebecca marry in Rutherford Co? What was her maiden name? If anybody has access to the 1850 Rutherford Co. census, could you do a lookup on this family for me? I also see a William Petty and wife Elizabeth in the 1920 Rutherford Co. census with a brother Ambrose Petty living with them. Are William and Ambrose the son of Nathan Petty above?

Is William H. Allen a slave or an owner? In the slave census all that was given was the owner's name and the number of slaves, broken down in sex and age groups.

The East Tennessee Historical Society is unveiling a new family heritage program, Civil War Families of Tennessee. Civil War Families of Tennessee (CWFT) seeks to identify and honor the sacrifices of the valiant soldiers on both sides of the conflict. This lineage program will link current descendants with their Civil War ancestors, encourage new research, and combine the experiences of thousands of individuals and families to tell more fully the story of the Civil War in Tennessee. If you are a direct or collateral descendant of any individual who served in Tennessee during the Civil War-Union or Confederate-you are eligible for membership in CWFT. Service may have been in either a Tennessee unit or any non-Tennessee unit which was active in the state. Membership is also open through an ancestor who served elsewhere but lived in Tennessee either before, during, or after the war. In order to recognize the service of the many young men who died unwed and without children, CWFT offers membership through collateral descent also. Like its sister program, First Families of Tennessee, CWFT applications and membership files will be housed in the Calvin M. McClung Historical Collection (Knoxville, Tennessee) of the Knox County Public Library System where together the two projects will provide an unparalleled resource for family and historical research in the Volunteer State. CWFT members will receive a handsome certificate with the names of the applicant and the ancestor, along with the name of the ancestor's company and regiment. A roster of the members and their ancestors will eventually be published in book form. CWFT members will also be recognized at a grand reunion to be hosted by the East Tennessee Historical Society. For additional information about the Civil War Families of Tennessee project, including a downloadable application form, please visit the ETHS web site at www.east-tennessee-history.org. Anyone unable to download a form may request an application form by sending a stamped, self-addressed envelope to: Civil War Families of Tennessee c/o ETHS PO Box 1629 Knoxville, TN 37901-1629 Additional questions about the new CWFT project may also be addressed to civilwar@east-tennessee-history.org (Please note that ETHS does not provide email-based research assistance at this time.) The East Tennessee Historical Society, founded in 1834, is one of the oldest cultural institutions in the state of Tennessee. ETHS, a non-profit organization headquartered in Knoxville, is dedicated to preserving, interpreting, and promoting the history of East Tennessee. The society's programs and activities are made possible through the support of its membership. The society's First Families of Tennessee family heritage program was founded in 1992 and now includes more than 13,000 members in 50 states and eight foreign nations.

Thanks so much for your help, Mary Pat. I found the info on Lt. James Blythe Morton very interesting. Just recently I found out that in VA there were two separate MORTON clans. One clan members of the Church of England and the other were Presbyterians. My MORTON line as far back as David were Methodists, so not sure which they would have belonged to previously. It gets more interesting, but sure learning a lot. Again, many many thanks. Nina

Nina and others - I got this one also. Came from a trusted source on another list, and my McAfee did NOT catch it. My USUAL rule was to NEVER - NEVER - NEVER open an attachment. It is now my ALWAYS rule. Spent all day yesterday cleaning up and changing my anti-virus to a real-time Innoculatel program, recommended by the smartest computer tech I know. It had to be downloaded because my CD was not working. I don't think I spread it to anyone on this list, but it did get out before I realized what was happening. Those little &%$#@*& are fast!

Mapleview is easy to find and if they have headstones they will be easy to not too large of a cemetery. Good luck!

I am not sure, but I don't believe that the Roselawn Cemetery was open that early. I am thinking maybe late 50's or early 60's it opened. Just not real sure.

I would say that would be Mapleview, on Maple Street. It is the only Large cemetery in Smyrna, hope this helps
