Possible his father was from Tn, hence the Tn. suggestion, but again, she could have been sent there to have the baby with relatives of the family. God knows how many times that has been the case, (mine including). I thought of the name Babe being that no name was given for a while also. The stories our families could tell us, if they had all just kept daily diaries. My mother did just that thing for the first 4 years of my life. Reading back on her thoughts back then is a total pleasure. I turned out to be a lot like she thought I would be, funny how that happened. She told me I was her favorite. I come to find out that each one of us were told we were her favorite. She is such a wonderful mother, and I tell her she is my favorite too.
