There is an Oakdale community in Morgan County, TN. That is close to Scott County. There are also at least two Davis Cemeteries. One is called Davis Cemetery the other sometimes called Davis-Wilson Cemetery. I believe they are between Harriman, Roane County TN and Coalfield in Morgan County.

My earliest Litton in Scott Co, appears to be Sylvester Litton b. 30 Mar 1821 Oneida TN, d. 30 Oct 1851 Oneida TN, who m. 1840, Nancy Anderson b. 12 Mar 1826. Sylvester is the first child of James Taylor Litton b. 13 Jun 1797 VA, d. 24 Mar 1887 Oneida TN, who m. 15 Oct 1818 in NC, Anna Foster b. 12 May 1800 NC, d. 21 Dec 1887 Oneida TN. That's why I'm related to what seems to be 3/4 of the population of Scott Co :) Sylvester and I have a common ancestor, John Richard (Letton) Litton Sr b. 04 Jul 1726 Rock Creek Parish MD, a descendant of Thomas Lutton b. abt 1555 Ottery St. Mary, Devonshire, England. I'm interested in any Litton, no matter how their surname was spelt. I research interrelated families, because I get quite a lot of Litton data from them. Anyone who has a Litton in their database, please let me know. Daryl

Looking that up, I discovered 6 different places in TN have that town name, making this more difficult...and none of them being Scott Co! My question: does anyone on this list researching CHITWOOD have Chitwood family from Oakdale? And which county's Oakdale is closest to Scott Co? At this point, I am wondering if the info I found w this list's help even relates to the Chitwood I am trying to research! Jacqi

Some folks have asked what program I'm using, that reports "oddities" in my database. Well, I've been using Brothers Keeper ever since it first came out. The newest version was just released yesterday, the home page is at http://www.bkwin.net/ The "oddities" or "Reality Check" as I call it, is the BK "Reasonableness check" report feature. You can customize the fields it uses. I have it set to report people who lived to be older than 100, who was born after one of their parents died, who married younger than age 13, who married a spouse 30-yrs older than they are, and who had parents younger than 13 and older than 80. After I enter a batch of people into the database I run the Reasonableness check, then double-check the people it reports on. It's a great feature, but I'll have to warn you...I also recommend a bottle of aspirin to go along with it :) Daryl

Several researchers have the dates for Vanilla and John as: Vanilla "Nell" West b. 14 Dec 1889 Scott Co TN, d. 12 Apr 1983 Scott Co TN, m. John Lay b. 15 Jan 1885 Scott Co TN, d. 19 Sep 1964 Scott Co TN, both buried Carson Mem. Cem, Oneida TN. Can anyone confirm the birth year for Vanilla? I suspect it should be 1898 instead of 1889. I've got her parents as Nancy Lucinda "Nan" Phillips b. 22 Feb 1878 Oneida TN, d. 20 Oct 1976 Oneida TN, and m. 03 May 1896 Scott Co TN, Alfred West b. 27 Sep 1874 Scott Co TN, d. 12 Dec 1948 Oneida TN, both buried Sexton Cem, Paint Rock TN. I have the rest of their children as: * Florence B West b. 22 Mar 1897 Scott Co TN, d. 19 Jun 1947 Scott Co TN, m. 09 Apr 1922 Scott Co TN, Elmer Duncan. There is confussion over who this Elmer is. Some think he is Rev. Elmer Duncan (also in this database) who m. Emma Childress, but the detailed obit of the Rev. does not indicate this in any way and lists his children by Emma some b. aft 1922. * William Osborn "Oz" West b. 09 Aug 1901 Scott Co TN, d. 01 Oct 1989 Onieda TN, m. 12 Jun 1928 Scott Co TN, Lucy Burchfield b. 18 Oct 1911 TN, d. 15 Jan 1992 Scott Co TN [daughter of Levi P M Burchfield and Margaret Carson]. * James Lone West b. 02 Mar 1903 Paint Rock TN, d. 20 Sep 1985 Huntsville TN, m. Dorothy C Bell b. 06 Aug 1906 Nashville TN, d. 20 Jan 1992 Scott Co TN. * Erie Viola West b. 28 May 1906 Huntsville TN, d. 06 Jan 1975 Huntsville TN, m. Joshua Jonathan Sharp b. 05 Oct 1901 Huntsville TN, d. 03 Mar 1976 Huntsville TN [son of Joseph Jonathan Sharp and Caroline Hembree Lewallen]. * Elmer S Posey West b. 07 Jul 1911 Scott Co TN, d. 29 Oct 1982 Pine Hill TN, m. 24 Oct 1932 Scott Co TN, Lillie Mae Carson b. 19 Sep 1912 Scott Co TN, d. 30 Nov 2001 Lockland OH [daughter of James Leonard Carson and Rosa Belle Keeton]. * Etta West * Oscar West b. 29 Aug 1913 Scott Co TN, d. 23 Mar 1959 Brimstone Creek TN, m. Altha Gibson. Oscar was killed in an accident at the West Brothers mine at Brimstone Creek. Nine miners were killed that day, the worst mine accident in Scott County. * Hester West b. 20 Jul 1916 Paint Rock TN, d. 08 Dec 1994 Oak Ridge TN, m. James Elmer Newport b. 28 Jan 1908, d. 24 May 1992 Scott Co TN. I sure do want to thank everyone who has helped with this database! There aren't many more 'oddities' to try and figure out, such as Vanilla's birth year, and then the database will be online. Daryl
