SPIVEY, BOWEN, DUKE, FREEMAN

Seeking information on JEREMIAH BOWEN (1770-1822) and his wife, MARTHA POWELL SPIVEY (b.1797, Bertie Co., NC), who lived in Carthage, SMITH CO., TN. JEREMIAH and two of their sons who died young are buried in a graveyard on the banks of the river at Carthage. It seems that MARTHA and her siblings (PHEBE and NANCY SPIVEY; perhaps wives of OBEDIAH FREEMAN and MICAJAH DUKE) came to Smith Co., as children. All of the above names appear in the appointment of a guardian for THOMAS S. SPIVEY in Smith Co. in the early 1820s. I think the SPIVEY father was the JAMES SPIVEY who appears in Smith and Jackson Co. census records. Can ANYONE help?

Nothing is known of them until the 1830 census where Margaret appears as the head of household in Smith County Tennessee suggesting Andrew was deceased prior to 1830. Andrew and Margaret had a son, who I am descended from, named Thomas M. WALLIS/WALLACE. He was born in 1805 and claims Smith/Macon County, TN. as his place of birth. Thomas M. WALLIS/WALLACE married Jane CALBREATH, his cousin, in ca. 1825. Thomas M. WALLIS/WALLACE appears in census of 1840, 1850, as head of household with Margaret as a member of his household. Possible siblings of Thomas M. WALLIS/WALLACE are David, James, Jefferson, William C.and Sarah. Any information regarding Andrew WALLIS/WALLACE or Andrew W. WALLIS/WALLACE is dearly needed.

DICKENS, GLOVER

George Washington GLOVER married Charlotte DICKENS. Charlotte (I believe) was the aunt of my great-great grandfather Edward Glover DICKENS, b 1812-1815 in Tennessee, son of John DICKENS, possibly Smith County or Sumner County. Edward moved to Iowa in the 1830's and was one of the first settlers in Clayton County. (He built the first log cabin there.) In the 1860 census a young man named Felix G. DICKENS (the G stands for GLOVER, I believe) was in Edward's household. Felix G. DICKENS of Smith County later fought in the Army of Tennessee, 28th infantry, company G, from 09-07-1861 until 1865. Does anyone have any information on George Washington GLOVER or the DICKENS family? Obviously the DICKENS family thought fondly of him if they named their children after him! Any help you can give is appreciated. My web page is at: http://www.uftree.com/UFT/WebPages/DHoffman/DICKENS/index.htm

PRENTICE

We are seeking information about Robert Prentice (DOB c1777 - possibly in VA). He lived in Smith and DeKalb Counties. He may have served in the TN Militia from Smith County in 1796. He married Spouse #1 Ann and their children were: Jackson (DOB c1818), who married Rachel; Margaret (DOB c1815), who married Nicholas Parsley; and Isaac who married #1 Phadey M. and #2 Rhoda. Robert then married Spouse #2 Sarah, who helped him raise these three children. He and Sarah's children were: John (DOB c1826); and Robert (DOB c1831), who married #1 Elizabeth and #2 Adelaid Wallace Smith in Dec. 1887. Margaret and Isaac took their families and moved to AR c1860. Robert (c1831) moved to Silver Point in Putnam County, TN. We believe both John and Jackson Prentice may have died in a "poor house" in DeKalb County, due to mental problems. Any informtion on Robert (c1777), his parents, siblings, any ancestors, where he is buried, etc. would be greatly appreciated. He was my Great, Great, Great Grandfather.

Hello: I am interested in finding out any information on Allen and Nancy BULLOCK BARGER my gr-gr-grandparents. Allen BARGER was born in Tn. ABT of 1801. Nancy was born in Tn. ABT of 1815. I don't know where either Allen and Nancy were born. In 1829, I found a land grant for 100 acres of land in Morgan Co. Tn. issued to Allen BARGER. I now have a deed for this property out of Morgan Co. Tn. for the 100 acres signed by Governor William Carroll of Tn. It is my belief that Allen and Nancy lived in Bledsoe Co. Tn. beforing moving to Ripley Co. Missouri in the 1830's. I am interested in who Allen and Nancy's parents are; were there any siblings? When was Allen BARGER and Nancy BULLOCK married? Any information would be appreciated. Carl Barger, Superintendent of the Warren Public Schools, Warren, AR.

ALLEN

Interested in communicating with descendants of Robert ALLEN (1778-1844) who died in Smith Co., TN in 1844. I understand he had a will. I further understand that he was a Lt. Col. in the War of 1812 and served in the House of Representatives from TN. I further understand that he was born in Augusta Co., VA. I further understand that he was buried in Greenwood Cemetery in Lebanon, TN (Wilson Co.). I descend from a Robert Allen, Sr. of Augusta Co., VA (c.1715-1791) and I am trying to determine whether this Robert ALLEN is a close relation of my Robert Allen, Sr. of Augusta Co., VA.
