Jan: So very good to see your composition, always enjoy them. Wish more of our kin would get interested in their ancestry before they get as old as I did before I began. We miss a lot by not talking to our elders when we are young...Roe

Jan, Thank you so much for the 'Sunday Afternoon Rocking' article. The ones I had saved so long ago were mostly lost in a computer crash. It was wonderful to find this one today. Betty

Sorry...first post was befuddled...like me.   One is Silver, The Other--Gold From the Sunday Afternoon Rocking Series: Jan Dennis Philpot    I clasped the worn leather pouch in wonder. I had not seen it in a very long time. Now I wondered what to do with it. I had not come looking for it; I was actually looking for a document I was needing for legal transfer of property. Last week I visited the lockbox I keep to secure away those family items that don’t need to be "found" very often.   What I found was my grandfather’s pouch -- the same pouch I had discovered in my own father’s lockbox twenty-five years ago at his death. It was a heavy little bundle, and even then I had realized that what it contained must simply be placed back in my own lockbox…kept. For what? I wasn’t sure then, and I saw no pressing need at the time to figure that out. Youth was on my side. It isn’t anymore.   I am now nearly fifty-six years old. I have eight grandchildren and five of those are biological grandchildren for whom this family legacy could be especially important. Could be…but can they possibly understand? I know what the 1920’s and 1930’s were to my grandfather. I have read letters between family members of the time period. I have poured over old tax bills and deeds. I interviewed my elders before their deaths. What did that pouch contain? Can I ever make my grandchildren understand the gift I want to give each of them as they enter adulthood?     In the 1920’s and 1930’s my grandfather owned a farm in Tennessee that was approximately 180 acres. Some of it was fine rich bottomland. Some of it was timber. None of it was easy to scratch a living from. The family ate what they raised and bartered for what they could not produce themselves. They had no cash, but then no one around them did either. It was a self-sufficient bartering era in rural middle Tennessee. One of my grandfather’s daughters was a teacher. That made paying taxes on the farm easier. The county could not afford to pay its teachers. They were often given an IOU. My aunt would give her father the IOU in return for a portion of what he produced on the farm. My grandfather gave the IOU back to the county in lieu of the cash to pay the tax on the farm. Sometimes that didn’t work. Sometimes he had to put a lien on the farm, and hope the weather cooperated and the tobacco crop turned out. Sometimes he resorted to selling off some of his timber.   In the 1920’s and 1930’s a strong man worked all day on another man’s farm for fifty cents and a home cooked meal. In the 1920’s and 1930’s a strong man worked at hog killing time on another’s farm to be able to take a piece of the meat home with him for his own family. How do I know? My uncles who did this told me it was so. Fifty cents a day for hours of long hard back-breaking work. I saw the same documented in my grandfather’s farm journal.   What is fifty cents to my grandchildren? Hardly enough to buy a soda or a candy bar. Often it won’t even purchase that. What does fifty cents these days look like? The coins are not even pure silver. They are so nonessential, they are thrown into "wishing wells" and tossed carelessly into game slots at restaurants and arcades.   Silver. Silver is what that pouch contained. And amongst that silver are ten heavy pure silver dollars--no alloys. They are heavy and substantial, those dollars. They are weighty because of the purity of the silver they are molded from, yes…but also because they stand for something. With dates from the 1920’s, each one represents two long days in the sun for a strong man. With dates from the 1920’s, I cannot imagine how long it took my grandfather to even accumulate such a hoard. I have wondered why he kept them…how he was able to….if this was his "secret stash" in case he should need it in old age. Silver. My grandchildren should each receive one of those silver coins that belonged to their great great grandfather. But how can I make them understand what they really are, really mean? How can I make them understand that the sheer existence of each one of those dollars represents tremendous self-sacrifice and self-denial for their ancestor? How can I make them understand a time period in which a silver dollar was something truly weighty, truly to be considered, truly not to be frivolous with? How can I make them understand I am giving them silver -- but the message is gold?       c2009janPhilpot ________________________________________________ (Note: Afternoon Rocking messages are meant to be passed on, meant to be shared...simply share as written without alterations...and in entirety.

A friend of mine found a bunch of old letters, deed records. etc. and let me look at some of it and I found the following Song Lyrics. I believe they were from around 1909 as most of the records are from that era. Guess writing song lyrics was a pretty big past time during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Am writing as it is written and spelled. Song Ballid Gambled on the Sabith Day 1. Oh who can tell a mothers thougs. When to her the news was brought, that her dear son had bin caught. And to the Prison he was brought. 2. This mother Sixty years of age with the counsel is ingaged to see if something could be don to Save her boy her only son. 3. But nothing could the counsel do the witness was all to true. The proof was all to plain. For him to ever be free a gane. 4. Oh. Gray haired mother fare you well I am sinking downward for to dwell from your advice I straid Awaintag and gambled on the sabith day. 5. Oh darling sister fare you well with the condemned I am to dwell My sole is filed with minerl hell So darling sister fare you well 6. Oh yonder stands my little wife She will greave for me all throw Her life but from her side I straid Away and gambled on the sabith Day. 7. Oh wife come lay your head rite here. That I may see your falling teares. The time has come for me to die but it breaks my heart to see you cry. 8. The cruel men will take my life take me from you my darling wife. I leave with you one presious boy and that is our darling babby boy 9.

Thanks for your time. I have seen the Outlaw book and ancestry trees. My reasoning was that David Outlaw Andrews' mother may have been an Outlaw.

I'm working on my Hays/Hayes family and trying to locate more "cousins". I'm comparing that old paper passed around through the family called the "Hayes Family Tree" (that in years past I've said isn't accurate) to Bible records and census records. I THINK I have the names/dates/families as accurate as possible given the conflicting information! If a name looks familiar or if you see something I have wrong, PLEASE contact me! James Washington Hayes married Mary Bartee in Dickson County in 1836. JW died by 1856 and Mary moved to Stewart County by 1860. JW's mother (Catherine) and brother (Solomon) were living near them per the 1850 census. I have no idea what happened to them after JW died and I don't know anything else about them (yet). JW and Mary's children: 1. William Hartwell married Sarah Ann Hamlett in Stewart Co, 20 Mar 1857. He died 29 Nov 1861. They had one son named Larkin. (Larkin's children were Wm Hartwell, Leslie, Hamlet, Lizzie, Perry, and Minnie) 2. Araminta Hudson married W R "Bill" Mitchell 24 July 1856 in Dickson County. They moved to Texas but I have information on this line thanks to Lenora Anderson. 3. Andrew Wallace was born 25 Nov 1840 and died 19 Mar 1841. 4. Emma Eugenia Darthula married Dillard Turner (children James Howard, Sarah E, Molly) and Bud Hasley (Will, Eula, Sammy). 5. James Washington Polk married Elizabeth Bradford Jones 24 Dec 1867. (Children James Edward, John Lee, Sarah Jane, Dora Ann, Zella Mae, Ida Etna.) 6. Jesse Jacob Dallas (twin brother to Polk) was born 20 Apr 1844 and died 5 May 1845. 7. George Robert Bruce was born 10 May 1846. He married Matilda Hasley 27 Dec 1868. (Children Mary E, Wm Hartwell, Fannie Yodora, Sarah Emma, James Dillard, Catherine Bulah, Arminta Nell, Allis Ava) 8. Benjamin Loudolphus (Thieudolphus) was born 18 May 1849 and died 13 Aug 1850. 9. Theodore Baxter was born 18 Nov 1850 and died 28 May 1920. He married Clara Ann Trump 28 Mar 1896 in Christian County, KY. I know this family moved from Stewart County to Montgomery County---they are my gg-grandparents. (Children James Isaac, Eugene Pearl, Benjamin Loudolphus, Lucretta, Bertie Lee, Mary Ann, Lula Theodore, Jesse Hartwell, John Henry, Oscar Lloyd, Addie Arminta, Horace Lyman) I look forward to hearing from ALL of you! Sandy

I am confused by your memo. If your ancestor was David Outlaw Andrews, then his father was an ANDREWS, not an Outlaw, right? I have no Andrews shown in any of my listings in the Outlaw family tree. There was a David Outlaw (born about 1785 and died in 1849 in Tennessee), but that is the only one I have. But there were many other Outlaws from the families in North Carolina who later settled in Alabama and Mississippi. I have not followed any of those lines since the line I was interested in moved to Stewart and Montgomery Counties in TN. There is an Outlaw family history book somewhere that lists many other Outlaws. I think it is posted online. Have you seen it? There is also a family tree posted on ancestry.com for these other lines. Gerry Parchman

Hi Gerry, My brick wall is my great-great grandfather David Outlaw Andrews b. 04 Jun 1819 (Stewart Co. I believe) as he was licensed there in 1844 as a Methodist Episcopal circuit rider for northern MS. Married Minerva Horton May 1851 (don't know where). Died 14 Jul 1853, buried Friendship Cmtry., Como, MS. Seeking his parents. Would appreciate any information you might have.

I did a search of the early Outlaw families for a cousin some years ago, but only did the first 4-5 generations in Tennesse, plus some ancestors in NC and England. Some of the connections are speculation and unproven. There was an Edward Winn Outlaw born in Montgomery County in1843, but all I know about him is his parents. There were several Outlaw brothers who settled in Montgomery County and two (William III and Seth) settled in Stewart County. I tried to send an appendage to this memo with a summary of my research but it was rejected for being too long, I think. I have notes on many of these early Outlaws as well if anyone is interested. William III came to Stewart County from Bertie/Hertford Counties in NC in 1804 and owned a lot of land as well as a ferry on the Cumberland. He also surveyed the land for laying out the town of Dover. Seth settled in eastern Stewart County about 1800 near the Montgomery County line. The others came to Montgomery County during the next decade. Gerry Parchman
