Regardless, does anyone have any Hickman's in their files for White County, TN? I am looking for Hickman marriages, but definitely Mary "Polly" Hickman to James Cooper. This should be abt. 1825-1828.< KAREN - I sent a transmission last night to TNWHITE-L giving a background on the book everyone has been asking for lookups from for the past two days: "Oldest Marriage Book, 1809-1859" by Doliante and Mitchell (c.1977), privately published. A copy is on file at the White County Public Library in Sparta, TN. My posting on this book, tells you what is included and what is not, and why, etc. Be sure to look this one up. It may explain WHY you can't locate marriages you KNOW took place in White Co., TN. Since the book is in alpha order by GROOMS, I do not have the page you need, which is COOPER. I DO have the page that would include HICKMAN (your Bride). However, there are not any HICKMAN Grooms listed on this page -- only HICKEY and HICKS. Hopefully, someone else on the List will have the page with COOPER on it. A list of the pages I do have was posted in the previous message. You should have received it around 12:30 AM (last night). If not, contact me privately at <montco1@cwix.com> JEANNIE MONTGOMERY St.Louis County, MO
