I am searching for information on Charles HAYS, born about 1780 in Davidson Co., and his wife, Mourning ENOCHS. They were married in Davidson Co. on 3 Apr 1805 and had at least 3 sons: Samuel HAYS, Chad HAYS, and John C. HAYS.
The family moved to Claiborne Parish, Louisiana before 1830. I am interested to know about Charles and Mourning's parents, etc. as well as where the family was from originally.

Hi,
I have been researching the Ozments and IDDINGS family for a while now (have already talked to Lon Martin and Howard Ozment), and an IDDINGS researcher I corresponded with wrote that EDDENS was origially IDDINGS. Had you ever heard of this before?
I have been trying to find out some information on Rebecca "Becky" PEAVY/PAVEY who married a Richard OZMENT in 1816, in Guilford Co., NC. I believe she was the daughter of my ancestor, John PAVEY and his wife (Mary?) Anderson. John PAVEY was on the 1790 Caroline Co., MD census, bought land in Guilford Co. in 1803.
Some of this Anderson line migrated to TN. ca. 1807. I have never been able to find out what happened to this Richard and Becky Ozment. There was a will (1816) in Guilford Co. of a Margaret COOK who left things to Becky Pavey and Isaac Anderson.  Joseph Iddings and Richard Ozment were witnesses.
Does any of this sound familiar to you? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Marsha McWilliams

William was born 2-10-1818 in Clarksville, son of Eaton POWELL and _______MARTIN. Rhoda was born 12-11-1814 in TN, parents unknown. They had 12 children.
The family moved first to PA and then sometime in 1840's to Bond Co., IL along with William's brother, Benjamin Eaton POWELL born 1815 in TN. He was married to Nellie Cossie from KY. Records in this area and time very hard to come by.
Anyone who has information, please contact me at:

Thank you,

Nancy, in addition to the Davidson Co, Tn List, I also subscribe to a Horn (family) List. I would like to send your message on, to the Horn list but wanted to ask your permission first. I think it might be of some use to other Horn researchers. Unfortunately, my Horn family came from Md. in Rev War and then to other places. Waiting to hear from you,
Joyce

"I copied the information given here in case it helps someone researching in Davidson County...
this is not my Phillips line; but maybe it will be of use to some of you for the other names given.

Page 72-73: Bible Records and Marriage Bonds, compiled by Jeannette Tillotson Acklen; originally published, 1933, reprinted 1992 by Genealogical Publishing Company for Clearfield Company, Baltimore, MD.
Joseph Philips was an early settler, emigrated in 1891  
(Note: this date is obviously a typo, and probably should be 1791)
with his wife, Milbrey Horn, from Edgecomb County, N.C. to Davidson County,
and settled six miles north of Nashville. His ancestry for several generations, both paternal and maternal, were natives of Edgecomb Province under the Colonial government.
"Joseph Philips served as guide for the Continental forces and participated in the Battle of Kings Mountain. Mathew Philips, brother of Joseph Philips, commanded a regiment of troops and died preceeding the Battle of Kings Mountain, from an overdraught of water."
Joseph Philips served as Justice for Davidson County in 1796.
Joseph Philips was born in Edgecomb County NC, Oct 31, 1763; died in Davidson County, TN May 22, 1832; married 1785, Milbrey Horn, born in Edgecomb County
NC, Dec 4, 1764, daughter of Henry Horn, Jr., second husband of Sarah Battle,

The homestead of Joseph Philips, six miles north of Nashville, TN., was known as "Sugar Tree Grove." He and his family are buried in private burial ground on his home place.
--------The above-listed Philips family is not connected (that I know of) to my Ezekiel Phillips, born 1778 in MD and was in Robertson County by early 1800's; however, Ezekiel's son, Preston D. Phillips, born 1820 in Sumner County was married in 1835 to Amanda Appleton in Davidson County TN...
I am still searching for more on Ezekiel's ancestry, and on Amanda Appleton.

HORN, WARD, WEATHERFORD, FREEDMAN:
Subj: Horn in Tennessee  Date: 98-06-09
From: McAfre@aol.com
To: Genny1
A message was forwarded to the Horn-L with your message referring to Milbry Horn. My Horn connection is with Rhoda Horn, Daughter of Elijah Horn, Edgecomb County, NC. Rhoda married Mercer (Messer) Ward, date not know, by the early 1800s they were living in Middle Tennessee. Militias Lists and land records place them in Stewart County by 1812. Their daughter was Wealthy Ward m. John Weatherford with children Wiley and Milbry. By the 1820s, Wealthy had moved to Hickman Co, Kentucky; her parents soon followed. (John had fought in the War of 1812, and the Indian Wars; then there is no known information.)
I have read but not confirmed that Elijah Horn and Henry Horn, JR. were brothers; can you provide a source for confirming this information?
Would you know of someone who would be willing to check on the marriage of Wealthy and John Weatherford? In exchange, am willing to check the Library of Congress, National Archives and DAR library (I live in Northern Virginia).
I am in the process on computerizing my information which I have inherited from my sister and a cousin. I am drowning in unorganized papers! .....
I have gathered from the National Archives any possible relevant information with Ward and Horn on the War of 1812 and Indian Wars; if I can assist you in any way, please notify me.
Best regards,

To: Genny1@aol.com
Hello, Nancy,
Many thanks for your email. I have considerable material from other Bowker lines not yet entered; perhaps this will fit in somewhere, but it will add to my database for future use.
Again , my thanks.
My English ancestor came from Manchester, as did your husband's, but a couple of hundred years later.
Best wishes.

Subj: Hutchin(s) Ussery
Date: 98-06-14
From: kerse@flash.net (Barbara S. Kersey)
To: Genny1@aol.com
I am interested in the Ussery's and the Rushing families of Tennessee.
Hutchin(s) was born about 1798 in Montgomery Co. N.C. and died in Giles Co., Tn about 1836. He was married to Francis "Fannie" Rushing about 1813 or 1814. He was found as head of household in Perry Co.,Tn in 1820 census.
Fannie Rushing was supposed to have a brother Burrel Rushing. Nothing could be found on him.
I can find information on the children but not on the parents Hutchin(s) and Frances (Rushing) Ussery.
Thank you for any help on any information that anyone can find.
