Henry B and Eddy B Hackett are nephews of Thomas Elijah Hackett. They are sons of Peter Mitchell Hackett, Thomas's 1/2 brother. Sue Gregory, 706 Scarlett Place Lebanon, TN, 37087-3263

Hi Sue, The Henry B. and Eddy B. in Macon Co. 1910 aren't Peter Mitchel Hackett and Luvernia Catherine Knights sons. They are still living at home with their parents in Smith Co. in 1910. And they are younger than the ones in 1910 Macon. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/tn/smith/census/1910/117-06b.gif Hackett Mitchell 50 1st mar mar 18 yrs Hackett Vernia L. wife 41 1st mar mar 18 7ch 7liv Hackett Nannie dau 14 Hackett Benton H. son 13 Hackett Henry B. son 10 Hackett Curtis W. son 5 Hackett Marvin A. son 3 Hackett Eddie E. son 8/12 I've been searching and here's what I think. Rutha Jane Gregory b. ca 1852 daughter of William J. "Jabe" Gregory & Mary Ann Celia Davis. married November 02, 1871 to William J. Brim. By 1880 Smith Co. census Rutha Jane is widowed with 3 children. I find this marriage record online. Hackett, Elijah T. Brim, R. Jane Oct 19, 1884 So I think Thomas Elijah Hackett's first wife was Rutha Jane Gregory Brim(m) Then when did Rutha Jane Gregory Brim (Hackett?) die? I don't have a death date for her. Then I think Thomas Elijah Hackett married Letha E. Knight in 1895. Mary Knight Mary, from what "I" know?? Henry B and Eddy B Hackett are nephews of Thomas Elijah Hackett. They are sons of Peter Mitchell Hackett, Thomas's 1/2 brother.
