I also have a William Carroll Tucker, born to John Tucker and Elizabeth Rea in Franklin County, IL (he had a son Reuben Carroll, who had a son William Carroll... lots of Carrolls in this line)... Anyone familiar with them? -----Original Message----- From: Joan Flatt [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 9:13 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [TUCKER-L] William C. Tucker Mary, There was also a William C. Tucker in Dickson County, TN. He had some land dealings with a Lewis Tucker, whom I believe was his brother. And, this Lewis apparently had an estate in TN that was divided amongst some relatives in IL. It seems he didn't have children. Do you suppose that the William C. in this case could be the same as the one from White County? There was a Carroll Tucker who married Jane Frazier. Maybe William C. and Carroll are the same person? I know that we have a William Carroll in our line of Tuckers and I do know that the Tuckers sure did like to repeat names!!!!

2-1813 Bledsoe Co TN Deed Book B p. 63 ...Bill of Sale ... William C. Tucker of county of Nottoway, VA to William Rippeto of county of Bledsoe ... $250.00 ... one Negro boy slave for life, named George ... abt 9 yrs. of age ... signed Wm. C. Tucker. Witness: Wm. Roberson ... proven at Feb. session of Court 1813 ... registered March 6th 1813. Does anyone have more info on this Wm? Could he have been the same one who is found on the 1830 Census, Bledsoe Co., TN 9 houses from Caswell Tucker? Is this the same Wm C. Tucker listed in 1825 White Co., TN Lists of males over the age of 21 in Capt.Phillip Malroy's Company? This is definitely not the Wm R. Tucker of White Co. Mary

Hi, I just received a copy of the pension application of Robert Tucker from the National Archives. There is a discrepancy in age recorded on the internet for him and what I find in the actual record. So, I thought that I would post this for those who are researching this line of Tuckers. I would also like to know the names of his children, if anyone knows, since the only reference in the document is to a daughter "upwards of 30 years old" (unnamed) and a couple of step-daughters (also unnamed). His wife is described as being 58 years of age. The opening statements are as follows: "State of North Carolina} Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions Lincoln County" } July Sessions 1827 On this 20th day of July in the year of our Lord 1827 personally appeared in open Court, being a Court of record opened and held for the County and state aforesaid ROBERT TUCKER aged between SIXTY-FIVE and SIXTY-SIX years old resident in said County of Lincoln and state aforesaid who being first duly sworn according to law doth on his oath declare that he served in the Revolutionary War as follows in order to obtain the provision made by the acts of Congress of the 18th March 1888 and the 1st of May 1820; Viz: that in February in the year 1777 to the best of recollection, he the said ROBERT TUCKER enlisted for eighteen months in what was then called Amelia County State of VA in the company the name of the Captain of which he does not remember, and some short time after marched under Captain Samuel Booker to Fredericksburg, then was placed under the command of Major Anderson and marched from Fredericksburg near Philadelphis and when within nineteen miles of Philadelphiawas turned back and marched to Petersburg at that place met with the troops and all divided into three detachments when deponent was placed in the first consisting of four companies commanded by Captains Parker, Paine, Jones and Tollere(?) (*NOTE: I have seen this Captains name rendered as Talliaferro, but this spelling doesn't seem to be this particular surname. Of course, the transcriptionist could just have had difficulty spelling that surname???) (Actually, the name looks like it could be Tolliver or Tollene), deponent being in the company of Captain Tolliver?(again this is not a clear spelling). Colonels Parker and Hopkins, and immediately marched to Georgia and joined General Lincoln's army and marched to Savannah." This document is VERY lengthy so I won't post the whole thing. However, I did want to note the age discrepancy for Robert Tucker. On other net sites, I have seen that his pension began in April of 1828 and that his age was 72. He sure did age a lot in one year! So, I thought I would bring this to the attention of those researching the Lincoln Co. NC Tuckers. It is also interesting to note that he enlisted in Amelia County, VA. The George Tucker who is a Revolutionary Veteran from Rowan Co. is also listed as being from Amelia Co. Born there in 1745. From this pension application, Robert was born there in 1751/1752. So, could Robert and George be brothers? They settled in the same region of NC. Lincoln and Rowan are next door. Comments are most welcome.

Mary, Two of my grandfather's sisters married POTTS. His sister, Jane Tucker, married Charles Alonzo POTTS and his sister, Belle Tucker, married Lew Lemard POTTS. Also, my grandfather's first cousin, Emma Tucker married their brother Benjamin POTTS. These three POTTS brothers were the sons of Isaac Joshua POTTS and Theresa PANKEY. Joshua POTTS was the son of I.J.POTTS Sr., and Patsy Ann THOMPSON. It is also interesting to note that the POTTS family settled in southern IL in the same area as my Tuckers. I feel sure that George W. Tucker was somehow connected to my Aaron Tucker and that is why Aaron was in White County, TN in 1825. There was also a Stephen Tucker there at the same time. There are two Aarons listed, but I really think that this was just an error by the one who was assessing the taxes and perhaps Aaron was counted twice???? I wish we knew more about this George W. Tucker and his wife. I also know that this family was connected to the DAVIS family as well as the FRAZIERS. They are buried in the FRAZIER cemetery. Do you have the names of the Tuckers who were in White County at the same time as George W. Tucker? I know that tax lists and census records sometimes missed families completely. Have you found a lot of Tuckers in the land records (other than those that are attributed to George W. as his children)?

I am wondering > if this isn't a mispronunciation of the surname of POTTS. Yes, it is very likely. Ross and Potts are two old names here. "Potts Knob" is located right where my Tuckers lived near the White and Cumberland Co line. I'm still working on the Wm Tucker of Bledsoe and White Co both born abt 1800... I can't prove it but I feel they are the same person. Digging in deeds and neighbors to try and sort them out... After all these years thinking my Elijah was b. in NC because of an ancestor's old letter I finally checked myself and he was b. in TN according to 3 census records :-{ His grandson that wrote the letter probably meant his father... It would REALLY help me if he wasn't missed in the 1850 census, Ha! Not strange around here as his son, my great grandfather was also missed in the 1880 census but he was here for sure! I got so disgusted I've left off working on Tucker for a while and have been working on my mother's line, Lawson. There are as hard to find as the others of course... What Potts are you related to? I have a few in my database. Mary

The will of Frances Coomes stated that he wanted his wife Nancy and Annafnan (I think it must be Annafran) Tucker to be the sole executers for his estate. This was in 1817. Nancy was pragnent with the "unborn childed" mentioned in the will along with the names of his other children. I am searching for the name of that child. My ggrantgrandfather was born in 1817. We have no record of his parents names. It seems that these people could be his parents, Frances and Nancy Coomes. Nancy being pregnent, her husband dying, and Nancy having to take care of the will, with several children she must have leaned on Annafran Tucker. My ggreatgrandfather's name was James Tucker Coomes. I thought he might have been named for Annafran. A lot of supposition. I also would like to know what he died of. Our family legend says that James father died at sea. We don't really know. I would appreciage hearing from anyone knowing of a Annafran Tucker. It is possible that she is a Native American. Patience

Mary, I too have seen this reference to Elizabeth as being a Poss. I am wondering if this isn't a mispronunciation of the surname of POTTS. I know that some of this line of Tuckers married into the POTTS family as well. My line also married into the POTTS family and also were in White County, TN.

I've seen references to this George's wife Elizabeth's surname as Poss (Ross?). I would like to know the source of that info. Could see have been a Frazier? Notice who is buried right beside her below: Elizabeth Tucker is buried in the Fraiser's Chapel Cemetery in White Co TN. Fraser Nancy 3 Sep 1818 9 Sep 1897 “Nancy wife of Tucker Fraser.” The year of death may be incorrect as the last digit 7 is faded. Tucker Elizabeth 25 Jan 1787 17 Oct 1872 “Elizabeth wife of G. W. Tucker.” The day of birth may be incorrect as the 5 in 25 Jan is faded. This info is from the cemetery listings on the Genforum page for White Co TN. Who is that Tucker Frazier?? I know that 3 of GW Tucker's children m. Fraziers.

I am researching my family "Tucker" the farthest back I can get (at this time) is Daniel Tucker b. 1780 d. 1863. He is buried in a Tucker family Cemetery in Anson County near the Cason Old Fields. His Family mostly stayed in and around this area with the exception of a son Woody who moved to Alabama, and grand daughters whom married and moved out west to Arkansas, Texas, & New Mexico. Most the Tucker family is buried at Thompson Creek Cemetery, SC, Deep Creek Cemetery, NC, Elizabeth Cemetery, SC. Pleasant Grove United Methodist Church, Chesterfield Co., SC Surnames within my research: Massey, Linton, Moore, Sellers, Gulledge, Rushing, Hurst, Helms, Polston, Roscoe, Funderburk (e), Boatwright, Waters, Rivers, Davis.......... Any help with Daniel Tucker or any Tucker from this area will be appreciated. Michael Tucker

Hello to all the members of this list. In particular, I address those persons looking at this list, who may be interested in a TUCKER household which was located in Perry Co., Al., during, before and after 1830. The father of the family group was John TUCKER, and his wife was named Mary ??. There are several persons from this household who are mentioned in the administration papers of the estate of John. His widow, Mary, was co-administratrix with Samuel W. Davidson, in the evaluation and distribution of the estate, and the various properties which were valued, and either sold or disposed of to the heirs are listed in detail. Included were several slaves, as well as land and personal property. The papers are in script, which is the way of the times, and totally standard, and the hand-writing is fairly easy to read. Anyone who would like to receive a type-written transcript of these documents should let me know, by direct response, off this list, since (I feel that perhaps) not everyone would have an interest in it. I can provide a list of the heirs, but the relationships are not spelled out, so some may be children, and others may be grand-children. I will be glad to assist anyone with this document, to the limit of my meager abilities. Also, any suggestions as to a proper archive for these documents will be considered. It is most likely available in one or another of the Perry Co. Probate Court records of the time, but it has come to me from a descendant of the family, and I felt it should be made available to any others who have a like interest!! My regards to all those TUCKER descendants who may have an interest in this offer.

Hello Carol, I just tonight read your query about the Tucker Reunion at Hopewell. Our leaders did not do a good job on getting the word out this year. I think you were the one last year who put out the word here on the Tucker list. I had to call Janette Herrin to verify the date and then got the one and only newslettter of the year on either Tuesday or Wednesday before we left on Thursday for Winfield. She was supposed to have contacted me to see if I would help with registration, but she forgot to mention that when I called her. At the meeting she brought the box of materials just as it was boxed up after last year's meeting. Nothing had been done to get ready for this one. Margaret Wallace volunteered to help me and did a great job of fixing the name tags while I registered their names in the book. The Herrins had a copy of your correspondence at the meeting at their home. Thanks for the input. It certainly claifies what I was thinking that George was not likely to have been in Maryland after the war. I had a nephew from Birmingham who met us and I was talking with him for the first part of our time at their home. When I joined the others, Bill said they had been talking mostly association business. Apparently there was no discussion of any further research on Bill's latest thoughts on the Tuckers being from Maryland. I wish our genealogy meetings were structured. I have not benefited from any during the four years I have been there. There was a couple from out of state that had information on an heretofore unknown line. I referred her to Bill but apparently she never got to talk with him. They must have left without ever sharing anything. I could probably identify them from the register, but it was already boxed and in her pickup when I asked him about them. He had no idea who they were. That has concerned me greatly -- that we have someone come and they get ignored -- doesn't speak well for us at all. Sorry you could not make it. However, the rain storm and the cold front that came through Friday evening almost spoiled everything. It was so cold we could barely manage. There were at least 96 attendees, but after registration many of them had to return to their cars for warmth. None of us were prepared for such a drastic change in the weather. There was a good turnout for the memoral and dedication service at the Daniel and Prudence Tucker cemetery. It was very well done. I didn't hear anyone say whether or not they agreed or disagreed with Bill's information. If you have the newsletter, then you may notice that he has kinda backtracked on several things. If he is on the right track, then a lot more is going to have to come to light to support what he has presented thus far. Keep in touch, Jynelle

Does anyone have any information on the Tucker reunion that is to be held at the Hopewell Cemetery near Glen Allen, AL tomorrow ( May 18)? I assume it is still planned, but have not received any information on the schedule. Thanks, Carol
