You may want to try to find the book at a Lib or ebay may have one to buy. I would love to help but there are just too many with these names you gave me. Good Luck If anyone knows of a good place to put the pages on line I would take pictures and put the entire book on line but I am not that advanced at web pages. I can put them on Ofoto if it would help. Someone feel free to jump in and let me know if this is something that could be done.

I take easy ones first and I will try to get to the many many requests as time permits. It would be helpful if you listed one surname at a time. Listing too many at one time puts it at the bottom of my list.

Woolard, Wollard of NC TN Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UiB.2ACI/1411.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi Sharon, do you know for certain who Alligood Woollard's parents were. There are so many John Woollard's in the line of descendancy that it's hard to figure out. I'm really confused on this because I have found (and I'm sure you have too) a John Woollard who married a Rebecca Alligood. Was Rebecca related to the Woollard family since John also had the middle name of Alligood...or was this a different John that didn't have the middle name of Alligood? Any help is much appreciated.

    3. Would appreciate any help in finding out who Joseph H Boon (12/4/1853-6/27/1911) father was. It should either be Thomas or George (bn 1/8/1796). Online trees show Thomas but family bible says George but census records cannot be found with George. Therefore, if a land record or will might be available to prove his name that would be a big help. Joseph had 9 other siblings and mothers name was Cyndarillah. Thanks so much __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

Mrs. John Spears who attended school there, thinks it was so named for the large oak trees near and on the premises." p 389 says Lt. Charles H Gerhardt was assigned as instructor of a military company at Cumberland University and resided here from about 1891 until called to another post just before the Spanish-American War; he built he residence now owned by Mr. and Mrs. John Spears Sr. at 319 East Spring Street p. 213 Under "The Newspapers " Roydon E. Hardaway died then the next paragraph reads; "After Hardaway's name was taken from the masthead on May 13 1926, it was replaced by that of the general manager, John A.

NOW FOR HALE There is too much for the Hale family to include it all in typing but I can make pictures of the pages and email them to you. but this one is too good not to type it out. Heading: "Wilson Countians in the war of secession" after a long letter written by T. J. Holloway to his parents the paragraph says this: " And the battle came. At Seven Pines, General Hatton fell. Thomas Holloway and Wiseman Davis are said to have been the soldiers who carried the body of the fallen general from the field. At Gettysburg, the Seventh Tennessee was first into action, and Henry Raison of Company B was the first soldier killed in the great battle. At Gettysburg the Seventy Tennessee carried its Stars and Bars to the fence at the crest of Cemetery Ridge and over the fence. There at the farthest advance of the Confederacy Tom Holloway and Jim Hale lay side by side, a shower of shot, shell and ball passing over them. "Let's surrender,' suggested someone nearby. Brave Tom Holloway lifted his head and said 'Let's never surrender,' and a bullet came crashing into his brain and there he died. Next J.R. Hale Reuben Hale T.L.

They had four children (Fourth child Tempy was born in Tennessee) in about 1840 when they removed to Madison Co., Missouri. Can anyone help me find them in tennessee? I realize that their stay in Tennessee was brief and between census'. I am hoping someone may have ties too this family. Any help would be appreciated wholeheartedly. Thanks for your help.
