Jeannie, Cordell was Dudley Cordell Slate...he was married 3 times. 1) Eunice M Craighead on 26 Feb 1918 in Smith Co. They had as son, Ivory Glendle Slate, b. 26 Aug 1919, RBS, Macon Co., TN and d. 14 Oct 2001 in Madison, Davidson Co., TN. I'm not a Slate researcher but the name jogged a memory. My father, who was also from Smith Co. TN, used to talk of a one legged barber named George Slate who lived in Goodlettsville, Davidson Co. TN in the 1930's. Goodlettsville is just down the road from Madison, Davidson Co. TN. George Slate was married into the Henry Hardcastle family. Just a thought. . .he may be a member of the Cordell Slate family judging from the proximity of Madison to Goodlettsville. Bobby L. West
