Nine or ten children were born to this union of which five have been positively identified. Prior to 1840 two of his sons, Lewis & Allan, left Dickson Co. TN for central Missouri (Carroll, Chariton and Putnam Counties).

Lewis was first married to Sarah Angelina WRIGHT who died about 1840. Alan, wife Pernina FREEMAN and their family remained in Missouri. The oldest daughter, Martha TYCER married John NESBITT.

Actually, this is a nation-wide database available to the different states - each state using a different name & each online availability uses a different name inside that state For instance....... Longview library was given TexShare... while a high school was given TexConnect So if you live in a state other than Texas, call or visit your local library & ask if they have ProQuest - Heritage Quest online availability... The only condition is that you have a library card You certainly don't have to live in Texas to enjoy this wonderful database Linda -----Original Message----- From: Carolyn Willis [mailto:traincw@pacbell.net] Sent: Monday, May 26, 2003 10:12 PM To: TXGREGG-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [TXGregg] TexShare Database Please note the TexShare Database is not available to anyone outside of Texas. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elaine Martin" <McStumped@cox-internet.com> To: <TXGREGG-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2003 8:48 AM Subject: [TXGregg] TexShare Database > Below is an appeal from Sharon Spencer concerning Tex Share Funding by the Texas Legislature. > She suggests contacting our State legislators and asking their support for the funding. > Heritage Quest is a website that contains US census records online. > Pro Quest who owns Heritage Quest has newspapers, biogrpahies and obituaries available online Sanborn Fire Maps are online ALL free and available online (as long as it lasts) from your home computer and courtesy of TexShare funding through the Texas State Library. > > > > > The TexShare databases are in jeopardy courtesy of the conference budget committee leaders who are wanting to further reduce funding for that resource. The current budget level is $20M/biennium, and the level to only sustain as is would be $12.1M/biennium per the Texas State Library. The committee is looking at cutting that in half which will, in effect, gut the TexShare Databases. The effect to genealogists would be drastic as the Heritage Quest/ProQuest database is one component of the TexShare Databases. Many other databases would be effected as well which are used by students, professional individuals, and residents all across the state who would be unable to obtain information otherwise. Having access to these databases via the internet at their local library makes possible acquisition of information many people simply would not be able to get otherwise. > > If you could send out an SOS via your mailing list, newsletter or whatever, maybe it would have some effect on the people of this committee.
