I do have a notation from some marriages from the Weakley website--J.F. Simmons married S.C. Jolly on 17 Sept 1874, but I have no idea if this is John Sammons. What year did he go to Texas?

    3. Rhonda--You asked whether I could note the DOB and DOD for Matthew and Mary (Dick) McFarland and the names of their children. It will take me a few days to pull my McFarlin stuff out of my boxes. Should I just sent it to RHonda, or are others on the list interested?

    2. Thanks Shannon! Will look forward to hearing back from you.............I've been working on those Logan Co. McFarlands and found a Leven in Logan Co. in 1840 the right age, with a wife and three daughters........one daughter young enough to have been Martha. His wife is in the right age bracket to have been Elizabeth as well. Then, in 1830, there is a Leven McFarland in Guilford Co., NC right age bracket to have been my Levin and his wife in right age bracket to be Elizabeth. There is one son and three daughters that would have been older than Martha as she was born November 28, 1838. Do you know where in North Carolina that your Matthew & Mary stemmed from?

Here is what I have been able to discover on a sideline of my ANDREWS (ANDERS) / HOUSE from Wilkes / Lincoln GA line that came to St Francis / Monroe County AR, which ties later on to my McLAIN line from Weakley County TN. (ties to Weakely Co are: Juliann Caledonia HOUSE who married #2 to John L. ALLMAN in AR was half sister to my great grandmother Clara COOPER who married Wm. David McLAIN b 1859 Lawrence County AR to John Henry McLAIN b about 1835 - 37 to Charles McLAIN who was living in Weakley County TN with wife Perlina A. UNKNOWN b about 1811 TN. The ALLMANs and the McLAINs were living in 1900s in Jackson County, Newport, AR) The ALLMAN lineage I show: Unknown ALLMAN from KY prob b about 1830 and Wife UNKNOWN also born KY. Son John L. ALLMAN / ALMOND b aboaut 1852 KY, died after 1910 Jackson Co AR ...married Dec. 28 1880 Monroe County AR to Juliann "Callie" Caledonia HOUSE b Nov. 4 1853 GA (famioly bible) died June 8 1926 Jackson Co AR according to Arkansas Death Records for Callie ALLMAN. John ALLMAN was Callie's 2nd husband. Callie HOUSE BRUMBLEY / BROMLY/ ALLMAN, b 1853GA was the 1stborn child of my gg grandmother Parthenia ANDREWS-- b 1835 GA mar 1851 GA to ANDREWS family overseer George N. HOUSE. They came about 1855-56 by covered wagon to St. Francis Co AR with her Michael L. ANDREWS / ANDREWS parents and extended family of her siblings. Juliann Caledonia "Callie" HOUSE's first husband was T. S. BRUMBLEY b about 1844 TN. They married about 1875 in St. Francis / Monroe Co AR and I find only 1 child: Iola Ollie BRUMBLEY b about 1878, died Oct. 7 1955 Jackson Co AR (that child married Allan Cop COLLIER about 1902 in Jackson County and had a daughter Kathleen Marshall COLLIER ---who I think married Mar 5 1924 Jackson Co AR to a Henry Cecil GARDNER and I lose the line--- and a son Allan C. COLLIER Jr. Tracked him. He was in the military, 206th Cavalry Regiment died WWII June 3 1942, rec'd Purple Heart and is buried in Sitka,Alaska ..among the lost or buried at sea, so I assume a plane crashed.) I'm a bit off subject, but it ties in ..back to ALLMAN) 1900 Census, Breckenridge, Jackson Co AR with Callie and her daughter Ollie BRUMBLEY. 1910 John L. ALLMAN's occupation was Merchant, Notions Store, Jackson County AR and they are still in Breckenridge township. 1920 on the Jan. 12 census date, Callie or Julia is a widow living in Jackson Co, Breckenridge twp, Tupelo Town, AR. I wouldn't have likely found the marriages for Callie HOUSE and her marriage to John L. ALLMAN had it not been for the memory and old notes my mother (now 87) made. Mother was born 1921 Newport, Jackson Co, AR. She was young, but she recalls her mother Audrey McLAIN WASHBURN and her grandmother Clara COOPER McLAIN talking about Callie ALLMAN ...and also Callie's sister Mattie PUGH. Mattie PUGH was born about 1857 AR as Martha HOUSE to George HOUSE and Parthenia ANDREWS / ANDERS and about 1875 she married in Monroe Co AR to William D. PUGY, b about 1847 North Carolina.

Allman...ironically, his wife's name was also Susan. If this is true, William would be my 4th great uncle, I think I have that right. The Allman family in Weakley Co prior to 1900 was quite large. I can't keep up with all the great aunts and uncles and where they all went. Now the family is quite small...my father is still living and I have one younger brother, one 2nd and two 3rd Allman cousins which brings the total number of living Allmans who are directly descended from Seaborn Allman, the oldest Allman anyone has been able to find in Weakley Co, to six individuals. All the Allmans in Weakley Co are descended from Seaborn, so far as I have been able to tell. The different spelling of the name is really not unusual. My great grandfather, Bruce Allman, actually switched back and forth from spelling the name Allman, Allmon and Almon. I had some relatives living in Gleason, which is in Weakley Co, who spell! ed it Allmon but we were all the same people. Try looking for James (Jas) W. Allman and his father, William Worthy Allman. This may give you a good starting point for finding more about William. Like I said, if it was one of family members who left Weakley Co, I just don't know much about them. There are so many Allmans there in the 19th century who stayed that I'm still working on them. Sorry I got so long winded...just thought if I said enough it might give you something to go on.

    1. [TNWEAKLE] Update for MORRIS-WATSON pic
    2. MaryCarol, I can't remember how long it's been since I submitted this photo, but it might be more useful if you could update it with some identification I was too lazy to include at the time, and maybe a plea for help identifying all the rest. I decided while typing this to send it to the list as well, in case any names ring a bell out there. The MORRIS-WATSON photo can be found here: _http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnweakle/photo_1924morris.htm_ (http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnweakle/photo_1924morris.htm) The ones I can clearly identify are on the right and in the front of the picture: The couple at far right in the back row are my g-grandparents, Morgan Daniel MORRIS and his wife Mary Jane Flora Ruth "Mollie," nee WATSON. Kneeling in front of "Dan" MORRIS is Mollie's father, my g-g-grandfather, Samuel Allison WATSON, b. 1844, migrated to Weakley Co, TN ca. 1867 from Rutherford Co, NC. 2nd and 3rd from the right in the front row are Aubra Carl MORRIS holding my mother, Ruth Ellen (MORRIS) SCHORFHEIDE and Carl's wife Jessie Lillian, nee CANDLER holding Mom's older sister, Alice Jean (MORRIS) HEGGEMEIER. Mom was born in 1923, and looks about a year old, so I can pretty definitely date it to 1924-25. What I know about the location of M.D. MORRIS's home is that it was about a mile and a half north/northwest of Dresden, and there was something about crossing the Meridian line to get there. I'm betting Joe Stout (among others)would know what that means. The rest of the folks in this photo would be Grandpa's siblings and in-laws, including some or all of the following: Vera Lillian MORRIS b. 1886 m. Almarine "Jack" C. ALLEN Lyda Maud MORRIS b. 1888 m. Wesley VICKERS Floyd Leonard MORRIS b. 1895 m. Opal Mae MOON in 1917 Aubra Carl MORRIS b. 1897 m. 1st Annielar ADKINS, 2nd Jessie Lillian CANDLER in 1921 Zula May MORRIS b. 1899 m. Calvin INSCO in 1915 Orpha Talulah MORRIS b. 1902 m. Sam WRIGHT Hubert Finch MORRIS b. 1905 m. 1st Hortense SMITH, 2nd Pauline BOYTE I remember meeting Great-uncle Hubert, who would be 19-20 in this picture, and would bet money he's the tall man standing next to Great-grandma MORRIS (third from right in back row). I've seen references to some of the in-laws' names on the list, so thought it was about time I took the time to spell it all out. Feel free to post as much or as little of this info as you want, MaryCarol. And you can add my last name if you want; there are several of us Peggy's on the list these days.

    2. Jenwyl
    3. Hello everyone, MaryCarol has posted a picture on the Weakley website of a few of my Parham relatives, but with several unidentified people. It looks like a school or church group to me, but I don't have any way of knowing for sure, and some of the guys in the back row look a little old for school. The Parham family went to the New Salem Cumberland Presbyterian Church near Sharon and some of the children went to the New Salem school. There is a list of the people I know posted with the picture. I would appreciate any help anyone can give in identifying any of the other people or place. I'm not sure if the link will work this way, but it's under the OLD PHOTOS section, under P for Parham. http://www.rootsweb.com/%7Etnweakle/PARHAMS.html Thanks, Jenwyl

    3. In the 1910 Census, Esther , listed as a daughter 14 years old, was listed as Esther Brummitt, age 4. daughter, in the 1900 Census. Confusing, yes, because the 1900 Census would lead one to believe that Esther was a child of Bettie by a previous marriage to a Brummitt--yet it says that she is a daughter of John P. Also, in re-looking at the 1910 Census, Madgie's age could be a 3 rather than an 8. And Madgie and Maggie aren't shown together on the 1920 Census. So I would have to agree that Madgie (1910) is most likely the same as Maggie (1920). Still believe, by the data, that Madgie/Maggie is a daughter of John P. and Bettie. Yes, I have the Census images--1910 lists Brummitt (the son) as age 6 rather than 5 as you show. I could find no previous marriage for either John P. or Bettie and yet John P.'s age would imply an earlier marriage. Do not have a death date for Madgie but my data shows marriage to A. J. "Bud" in about 1921when she would have been only 14 years old if born in 1907. Strange!?!.

    3. Thanks, Len. Yes, it's been a mystery to me for several years. Every once in a while I try again to figure it out. It's very possible that she and "Bud" married when she was 13 or 14. The funny thing is that I remember "Bud" Jones from my childhood as he was a frequent visitor at our house, being a relative of my mother's. He never married again after his first marriage and, during my childhood, lived with his unmarried brother W.T. (nicknamed "Dick") in the home of his daughter Virginia Ann and her husband, Willie Klutts. What a trove of information those people from my childhood could have provided. I wish I'd been genealogically inclined at a young age! LOL Thanks again for your help.

    3. Hi Len, I got my census data from transcription so I'm wondering if the transcription is incorrect. Here's the transcription below. Maybe you have the images, and the transcription is wrong. Also, from this transcription, I thought it possible that Maggie and Madgie were one person. In the 1910 census below, Madgie was 3 (tombstone (if it's hers) shows birthdate in April 1907). Then in 1920, dau., Maggie (Madgie spelled incorrectly???) was 12. This census was taken in Jan. so she'd have been thirteen in April if it's the same person who is buried in Freeman Cemetery. Thanks for your response, and I'd appreciate your thoughts on this census. Could the transcriber have mistaken the 8 that you mentioned for a 3? If so, what happened to dau., Madgie by the 1920 census? Maybe the Madgie Sadler who married A. J. Jones wasn't the dau. of John P. ???? 1910 Weakley Co.
