Dear Jeannie, I am the 1900 Census Lookup person for Sumner Co. I know I have contacted you before, but never about a May/Maye. I believe my May(e)(s) to be descended from Frederick May and William May who came from Montgomery Co.VA to Simpson Co. KY to Sumner Co, TN. My great-great grandmother was Sarah Ann Mayes b. 1826 who married Calvin Hunter b. 1813 Sumner, TN in 1846 as his third wife. Their dau. Mary Jane Hunter b. 1858 (officially 1860) m. Thomas Inman "Inney" Summers in 1874 and they divorced with her maiden name restored in Jan 1879. No children. She m.2 my great-grandfather William Oliver Read b. 1853 Sumner Co. TN in Dec 1879. Nine children were born incl. my grandfather Ollie Witham Read b. 1893. Mary Jane Read m.3 S.L. "Fate" Biggs in 1925, but he died in 1927. I have had a nearly impossible time tracing the May(es) girls who married Calvin Hunter. I have no idea who Calvin married first (one ch.Mary born mentally handicapped). His second wife was Susannah Mayes m. 1837. (5 ch) and she probably died. in childbirth in 1846, so he m.3 Sarah Ann Mayes. They may have been sisters or cousins or not related at all. I also can't locate any Hunter graves even though they lived in Northern Sumner. The women could very well be May/Mayes from Northern Robertson Co. too. Calvin's parents m.. in 1802 in Sumner Co., and those records are lost. They were Cader Hunter and Phebe Dinning. Please write if you find anything. Also: Robertson Co. Lookup: I really need help with anything Read/Reed/Reid before 1830 in Robertson Co. TN My 4th great-grandfather was James Read who d. 1826 and is buried in or near Springfield. Which cemetery could that be? He was once married to a woman named Lydia. His father was Moses Read who died in the Revolution and may have been born or killed.in PA. James Read's son was Lunsford Read b. abt. 1804 d. abt. 1856. There was also a Lunsford b. in the 1830s who was a grandson of James Read. I know with the exception of James Read, the man who died in 1826, they all moved to Montgomery Co. TN later, but I need the earliest marriages, land, will, probate, cemetery and any other records that can be found in Robertson Co..for anybody Read/Reed/Reid. There may be two "Moses Read's" who journeyed this way. I don't know if I will ever get down to Springfield. Thanks so much for trying to help me.
