The best source is the book Early West Tennessee Marriages. I do not have the book, but check your library for it. I have copied some pages from it, but not the ones that you need. Sistler's has the book, but it cost $122.00. That is the web site that I sent everyone. If you have an LDS Family Research Center near you, they may have it. I wish I could be of more help.

Thanks for the reply and guidance-I will check the LDS and see if they might find it-I checked online the library catalog but couldn't find it. Does Tipton Library do inter-library loans??

In answer to your question, David Gwinn is a county employee and serves as the Tipton Conty Genealogist. Many of the old archived documents have been moved from the court house to the old legal building on Highway 51. David was the person who oversaw the transfer of irreplaceable documents into a safer environment. In order to reach David, probably the best way to reach him with genealogy questions is after hours at home by phone. I normally pay David for the work he does for me. He never asks for money, but his job is more of a voluntary position than a paying one. I will be glad to supply you with his home phone number if you will contact me privately.

Hello, I have found a web site that sells genealogy books on TN, NC, VA and KY. They have a great deal of books that could help in your research. The prices are reasonable. Go to it and see what you need. I especially liked the typed censuses! I have nothing to do with this web site, but it is awesome. They will do a census research on a surname for very little, if you do not want to purchase the book. They have other books too that will interest you. <A HREF="http://www.mindspring.com/~sistler/index.html">GENEALOGY BOOKS FOR SALE: RECORDS FROM TENNESSEE, VIRGINIA, NORTH CAROLINA, AND</A> Happy Hunting!

Could you look up the marriage of Lemon Woods Hamilton and Martha Richard Bird in 1870....also if there is any information as to their parents I would appreciate that too.

Barbra, Would you please check for Samuel Darby Simons and Nancy Harrison? Thanks, Nancy Harwood

Barbra, What a wonder! I just came upon something that I need during those years. What do you have on a John James possibly marrying a Morrissett (spelled different ways)? I believe that he married in 1859 or 1869. Could you help? Thanks so much!

Would you mind checking on John W. Crowder married to Jane or to Lucy Jane or to Elizabeth? His oldest daughter was born in 1837 in TN but her mother died, probably at birth. Thanks Dawn

Barbra, I had a relative Paoli Probert Collier who married a second time to Mary E. Feezor May 1845. I would love to know if this is in the booklet plus the marriages of any of his children: Eliza W. Collier Susan Elizabeth Collier Probert Collier Joseph T. Collier Those Probably in 1860's.

While going through my research materials, I found a booklet I forgot I had. Tipton Co. TN Marriages - 1840 to 1874 I am more than willing to do lookups for anyone who thinks that their ancestors might fall into this catageory. Barbra

Barbara: Would those marriage records also include divorces? I need to find a record of one real bad. Frank

Barbara, Can you find George W. Barnett and Mollie Greer in 1874? Thanks. Fred
