One of my men, John Berry, married Elizabeth Prichard in 1878. Is anyone on this list who studies the Prichards. I think her father was J.B. Prichard, who lived in Civil District 18 of Wilson County. All these people were born in Virginia. If someone knows that J.B. wasn't her father, please let me know. Susan Lane

Thomas L. Partlow's WILSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE, CHANCERY COURT RECORDS 1842-1892, has the following entries which may be helpful. 1. Bill of complaint of John C. Sypert and Elizabeth Cook, executors of W. L. Sypert, against John J. Strong and wife Roxanna of Davidson Cunty; Mary Ann Rison of Gibson County; John Boners and wife Nancy Jane of Coffee County; Sarah Calloway of Henry County; and Thomas Sypert of Stewart County. Said Sarah Calloway and Thomas Sypert are minors. W. L. Sypert departed this life on 24 April 1871. 14 November 1871 (Chancery Book E, Pp. 295-296) 2. Bill of complaint of W. E. S. Cook against John C. Sypert, executor of William C. Dew. William C. Dew died in February 1868, leaving John C. Sypert as his executor. The Babb Farm was to be divided among three of his nieces, to wit, Roxalana Straughn, James Bowers and Mary Ann Rison. The remainder was to be divided equally between the widow, Ann Dew, and John C. Sypert. The complainant is a niece of said William C. Dew and a sister of the defendant. 5 September 1876 (Chancery Book 1876-1892, Pp. 35-37) I believe that Roxanna Strong and Roxalana Straughn are the same, don't you? I have been told that these records are now at the Archives in Nashville, and are probably ready for copying after microfilming. These are not my family. Just doing a lookup for you.

Hi folks, I'm new to the list and am searching out CARTERs in Wilson/Rutherford Counties. I'm told the particular family I'm looking for was in the FELLOWSHIP Community--can anyone help me locate that area? Any help appreciated, can't locate it on any current maps I have access to... Thanks Ed Waller

This is to let everyone know I found the Goose Creek Ranch. It is on Sherrillton Road. Now I have another dilemma. My ancester Joseph Berry was arrested and charged with house breaking, carrying arms and intent to murder in 1876. Also arrested was Alf Clark at the same time. Joseph was cleared of all charges, but I am puzzled why this mild mannered man would have done such an act and who was Alf Clark. Joseph had two daughters die about this time and I don't know from what. I am wondering if these charges had something to do with the death of his daughters, who were teens at the time. Does anyone have a clue. All that is in the court records are the charges and dismissals. Who is Alf Clark? Susan Lane

This is in response to the query about Rebecca RISEN and her possible connection with the SYPERT family of Wilson Co. TN. Mary Ann SYPERT b. 1823 in Wilson Co. TN was the daughter of William L. Sypert (1793-1869). William's parents were Thomas Sypert of Augusta Co. VA and Sarah Mary LASATER. William had two wives (at least), Elizabeth CANNON and Patsy DEW. There is a Wilson Co. TN record showing that "William L. SYPERT married Elizabeth JUSKEEP in Bowling Green KY on 12-11-1839. They lived together in Lebanon (TN) until her elopement in June 1846. Said William is seeking a divorce. Jan 1851). I don't know if this is Mary Ann and Roxalana's father but assume it is. The SYPERT family migrated from Chatham Co. NC to Wilson Co. TN in the early 1800's. Mary Ann Sypert married James RIZEN (RISEN). She had a sister Roxalana who married Peter Rizen in 1830. I have not yet located any further information about the Rizens. I wonder if James and Peter were brothers?? Let me know if there is any other specific information you need. I will be glad to share what I have.

He moved from TN to TX without his parents, and it is beleived that he made the move with a friend from TN. Can someone help me? Raphaela Axtell Buffalo, TX

Since my initial post I have received additional information that the EM very likley stands for Eli Massey and Lucinda's maiden name is James. The 1850/60 Census indicates he is the son of John Pemberton and Emiline Massey. Thanks so much to those that have helped.

Looking for ROGERS ca 1800 Wilson Co. TN. According to son, John M. ROWE @ MO Goodspeed's, my gggrandmother, Narcissa ROGERS was born 1824 in Wilson Co. TN. She married Elisha ROWE 1840 and raised eight children in Carroll and Benton Co. TN. Narcissa died 1864 in Benton Co. TN. Elisha died 1886 in Charleston, MO. Will take anything ROGERS! Susie T.

Do you have a name or a time frame? There are two Tarver families in the area which may or may not be connected at some point (no one can find the connection though but they did witness each other's legal documents). I don't have my records in front of me so this is from the top of my head. My GGGG grandmother Martha A. Tarver married Samuel H. Riggan. Her father's name was Samuel. I do have siblings names but not on me at the moment. One sibling was Tilmon Tarver who was in Clark County, Arkansas by 1859. I don't go back beyone Samuel Tarver in the early 1800's. Sorry. Also Tarvers at that time would marry first cousins so it is very hard to trace them. It has been a booger for me. cynthiajcline@yahoo.com
