Subj: East Tennessee Genealogy Date: 97-11-02
From: jcavener@unomaha.edu
I would enjoy the exchange of information about the CAVENER, EARLY, ARMITAGE, HARTSILL/HARTZELL, and MCFERRIN/MCPHERON families of Greene, Washington, and Cocke Counties (TN).
My ancestor, Hugh Cavener/Cavenaugh settled in present Greene Co ca 1786.
His son, John fought in the War of 1812, and his sons, Dr. William Cavener (USA) and George Crawford Cavener (CSA) both fought in the Civil War.
George married Amanda Early of Limestone, TN in 1862.
Their first son, Thomas Pitt Cavener was born in 1863. He went to Hiwassee College, and married in 1913 (when he was 50) to Mabel Tippin of Rome, GA.
They stayed in Rome, where my father, Thomas Summerfield Cavener, was born in 1919, along with six siblings. He married Vera Alicia Parsons of Tecnor, Siskiyou County, CA in 1939. They presently reside at Dorris, Siskiyou Co., CA
Their third son of five, I was born in nearby Klamath Falls, OR on 9/20/45.

Subj: Hello Date: 97-11-02
From: tanners@ykt0.attnet.or.jp (Samuel E. Tanner)
Ms Goodman
My name is Samuel Tanner and I have been surfing the web for information on my family tree, with no luck so far. Came across your home page and all the links and info that you have put together. I am impressed with your work.
I am also intrigued by your connections to Houston County. Understand you went to HCHS, class of 61. I too went to HCHS, all though a few years latter, class of 72.
Been wondering where you came up with the example; Tanner, Sam on one of your pages. I am in the Army and am stationed in Japan.
This makes genealogy research a real challenge but home pages like yours, Dan Martin's and others gives me a chance to find family ties.
Keep up the fine work.

Civil War Soldiers & Sailors System: http://www.itd.nps.gov/cwss/
The Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System is a computerized database containing very basic facts about servicemen who served on both sides during the Civil War; a list of regiments in both the Union and Confederate Armies; identifications and descriptions of 384 significant battles of the war; references that identify the sources of the information in the database; and suggestions for where to find additional information. The facts about the soldiers will be entered from records that are indexed to many millions of other documents about Union and Confederate Civil War soldiers maintained by the National Archives and Records Administration. Additional information about soldiers, sailors, regiments, and battles, as well as prisoner-of-war records and cemetery records, will be added over time.

SKILES, WEYER:
Subj: Skiles Date: 97-11-03 11:08:11 EST
From: bearbird@erols.com (DWWeyer)
Good morning,
I am looking for John and Pauline SKILES. I know they were somewhere in TN in Dec 1860. I haven't been able to track forward or backward on them. Their daughter, Martha SKILES (DOB: Dec 1860), was probably in Louisville, KY in 1881. In 1884, she was in Union County, KY. She died in Evansville, IN in 1917. Pauline is supposed to be full blooded Indian (Cherokee?). I have yet to prove the Indian blood except to say that some of Martha's children strongly suggests the presence of Indian blood. Any tidbit that anyone has will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Walt Weyer in MD

Hey Nancy I ran across this Biography project while doing some KY research. They don't have anything going for TN but the KY site is a good one. Thought maybe you would know someone who has nothing to do who would volunteer to take on a TN Biography Project... Seriously, this would be a good thing. If you know someone who might be interested forward this on.

Where would we get hold of the book that's mentioned? If there's any relation I'm sure he'll want to know.

From: KLWRAGEG@aol.com
Seek maiden ID of Cynthia (nee?) GUNTER, wife of William T. GUNTER, both born 1817 TN.
William T. GUNTER, born in Warren Co., TN. His father, John G. GUNTER (b. 1793 NC), moved to Marion Co., TN with his father, Augustus (1) GUNTER (b. 1760-70), about 1818-1820.
About 1825, John G. GUNTER and his wife (Lavinia Arline THOMASON GUNTER) and children, removed to Bridgeport, Jackson Co., AL.
It's probable that William T. GUNTER and Cynthia were married c1840-42.
Their eldest child, Lavinia Ann GUNTER, was b. 1843 in MO.
Family tradition is that William T. GUNTER and his younger brother, Caldean D. GUNTER, left Jackson Co., AL 1839 and rode horseback to MO to visit kin.
It's possible that William T. GUNTER was married at the time of that removal.
It's also possible that he met and married his wife, Cynthia, while in MO.
Cynthia's census record indicates in 1880, Leon Co., TX was that her father was born in AL and mother born in TN.
It is possible that Cynthia was a part-Cherokee, as was Caldean D. Gunter's wife.
Despite the Missouri interlude, William T. GUNTER and Cynthia were back in Bridgeport, Jackson Co., AL by the birth of their second child, Charles F. GUNTER, b. 1845.
I descend from the 3nd child,
Mary Susan GUNTER, b. 1847 AL.
Other younger children of this couple:
Horace GUNTER,
Taylor B.GUNTER,
William T. GUNTER
and Malinda GUNTER.
Any help appreciated.
