We had the best time tonight at the Borotellers Haunted Murfreesboro. There were lots of ppl there. It was cold but not too cold. The stories were all concerning old folk in M'boro....ghosts, etc. It was neat. They are gonna be doing this next weekend also. While several of the stores are on our web site, there were also new ones to me. Mari -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Thanks for the listing--I have many old court records, and it's hard to read all the old script--now I'll know for sure who the Justice was who signed them! Susi Godfrey

Hi Norma- On the run at the moment but promise to get back to you. I do not think I have any additional info on John or Sallie Shelton. But, I will look further. It will benefit me to do so and hopefully you also.

Hello Paul, Thanks for your reply. Haven't gotten many on this line so I really appreciate it. I've never heard of the book and have no idea as to it's contents or how to find it but it sounds tantalizing. Have you seen it? I'm sorry that ,at this time, I can't confirm a connection to the people you mentioned as Lyfus and Sarah are the only names I know going backward. I have their children and forward from there, but backward is what we need, of course. It would be nice if the people you mentioned are the same bunch as you are the only one who has suggested a name for Lyfus' father. Do you have any more information on John and Sallie; where they were born etc. Lyfus and Sarah ended up in Illinois. They were married in Rutherford County Tennessee in 1850 but by 1860 they were in Jackson County Illinois I think it was. It took forever to find them on the 1870 census but they finally showed up in Missouri then back to Perry County Illinois by the 1880 census and that is where they stayed. Each census lists his state of birth as Virginia but I have no idea as to when he came to Tennessee, if his parents came too or if he was already an adult etc. Still have a lot of hunting to do huh. :-) Anxious to know where John was born.

John W. Hall 1834-19?. Wife-Mary Jane Shelton 1838-? They likely lived in 4th District most of their lives. It's possible that Goodspeed's John W. Hall ( page 1037) is my Great-grandfather. However, middle initial of Daughter Mary is incorrect. I'm searching for some sort of verification. Thank you-Paul

Hi Mari- Forgive my ignorance but where is the Justice of the Peace index you posted? Such a list will likely prove very beneficial to my research about John W. Hall ( my g-grandfather) who is indicated in Goodspeed (p.1037) as having been a JP in Rutherford County Many thanks for the alert-Paul. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mari Byers" <keyofbflat@comcast.net> To: <TNRUTHER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 2:34 PM Subject: [TNRUTHER] Justices of the Peace-old > I just posted a great list of 1800s Justices of the Peace, thanks to Don > Detwiler of the Rutherford County Archives.

Mari, Yes, I do remember Herschel saying his shop was on a square. I need to write;-( Jim

Jan, Yes, that's correct. I'm pretty set with the McCullough line finally, but still having problems with the LOWE line :-( Jim

Mari, I don't actually know the name of the jewelry store...just that Herschel Mullins owned and operated it for years and turned it over to his son a couple years ago, but still helps there. Jim

Jan, I believe we've crossed paths a couple years back....maybe not..at any rate, I believe Cheryl Reed is a distant cousin I've never met. Jim

Joan, Herschel Mullins and I have the same great grandmother. He and I have exchanged letters. I believe my Aunt, Georgia Lowe was employed by J.T. Puckett. Jim

Were you looking for Cheryl for Reed connections?

There may be two. I just always see the Bell Jewelry spots. "Like the sparkle of a Bell diamond...etc" Seems like there was or is a Mullins Jewelry on the Square also. I'll look next time I'm by there.
