Tammy, I knew it was too late to send that post last nite...Charles Clayton Nutter's first wife was NOT Ruhama Stallman (Ruhama was married to John Wesley Kerby). Nancy S. MITCHELL b 29 Jun 1868 in Roane County, d. 19 Apr 1910 in Calhoun County. They married in Roane County...I have a copy of the marriage return. Charles and Nancy Nutter were Eva's parents. They had 5 children...Commodore, Effie, Eva Mae, Anderson Ray and Sarah A., who either died at birth or very young. Sorry for the confusion.
