Folks, keep in mind there are two Cunningham families in Fayette Co and the two aren't related. One is out of Tennessee, the other, mine, began with an englishman, James Cunningham. I done had this dispute with cousins here...even produced census showing the differneces to no avail. Anywho, James Cunningham 1st married Rebecca Fitzgerald, had 9 kids. He later, at abt. 45 in 1863, married Rebecca's sister's 17 yr. old neice by marriage, the widow Lucinda Jane Bolton Jones. James and Lucinda had 10 kids. I am '2nd family'. I got the email from Gayle about Hosea Hammon(d)(s) and deduce from that you are '1st family'. We have no Cunninghams in the cemetery of that name, they are the 'other' C family in Fayette Co. from Tennessee. James Cunningham came over in 1835 at abt. age 17. He was born 11/5/1818. As my hand allows I will send what I have. Always good to find another cousin. teresa Parrish ----- Original Message ----- From: <ccbogieman@austin.rr.com> To: <TXFAYETT-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 01, 2005 5:42 PM Subject: [TXFAY] Re: Cunninghams, Cunningham Prairie and Stage Coach Inn, Cunningham Cemetery > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/mkB.2ACI/336.3 > > Message Board Post: > > Cunningham Cementery is behind a locked gate apparently on private > property.
