Dawn I did eight courthouses between Monday morning and Friday 5 p.m. across the state of Tennessee and up into southern Kentucky. I KNOW what you mean about so much stuff! But I learned a lot! Morgan County was my last stop. We arrived in town about 4:25 p.m. We had been delayed by a stranger who graciously took us to two WEBB cemeteries in Scott County right on the Morgan County line. We felt we could not pass up this opportunity. When we arrived in Morgan County the deeds office was closed tight. . but the office that had the marriages was open for 30 more minutes. The guy was VERY nice, but we soon discovered that all the records from the time frame when our Webbs were in Morgan had burned :( There is a notebook in that office with typed up entries for some marriages. I copied the A's W's and M's but those are listed by groom so I have no idea if Elizabeth and James are in it. The library in Morgan is tiny tiny but the gal there who was just helping out during an illness was very helpful. I would imagine if you wrote or called them they would look in the research of a Mrs. Freytag (she is now in nursing home but donated her work to the genealogical society which is a tiny room in the library) to see if they were listed. It would not be a source document but may give a date for you. Is this the family you believe James to be from: 1850 Morgan Co TN 374 374 Hiram Stewart 30 m farmer 50 TN Charity Stewart 24 f TN Talitha Stewart 10 f TN Mary Stewart 7 f TN James Stewart 5 m TN John Stewart 3 m TN Ann Stewart 3/12 f TN 375 375 Nancy Stewart 64 f farmer 100 TN Mary Stewart 9 f TN Sampson Stewart 3 m TN Dionitia Stewart 34 f TN They were living next door to some Hambys and I have seen that surname on lots of Cutbirth Webb data. keep in touch I'd love to crack this one Marcia
