Subject: [TNWILSON-L] MOUNT/LANNOM
Hi List,
I just returned from a whirlwind tour of the southeast which included a
brief visit to Wilson Co, TN and the new archives facility there.
I found in one of the Partlow books there, court minutes 1861-1867. It
contained the following reference on page 51:
On 8 Nov 1862 Richard Mount (commonly known as Cedar Dick) did wilfully and
maliciously kill and murder Joseph Lannom by cutting, stabbing, and killing
him with a large and murderous knife. 19 sep 1866. (Pp. 612-613)
Can anyone tell me with some surety which of the Richard MOUNTs this is?
Is
he perhaps the one that married Nancy Edwards?

I applaud you Bob for your effort in working with the census records and
your
willingness to share your work. Thank you!
I have a scanner and would be willing to try a page or two to see if it would
turn out o.k. . . . if so, I'm willing to scan in the 1820 and maybe the
1830. The idea of all of us working together to share this information
is
great. It would seem to be more beneficial to more people over time
if it is
posted to the web page and not just to the list.

Bob and Nancy,
I have a scanner and would be willing to help with the project previously
mentioned. I would need to know how to save the image so it may be used on
a webpage. I would prefer to not do ALL of the scanning so that I wouldn't
"wear out" our scanner, but I would certainly be more than happy to help!
(I assume there are many pages involved.)

Dear Nancy,
I am primarily researching the families of William Greer, b. abt. 1822
in TN. & Asa Greer, b. abt. 1827in TN. They were both blacksmith's
in
Laguardo, TN. They were probably related.
My g-grandmother is Mary A. Greer Shepherd. She is to daughter of
either William or Asa. I'm not sure. She is buried near Asa but
William always lived next door to her all his life. I suspect William
is my g-g-grandfather.
I have not come across a John that I have noticed. However, I will
keep my eyes open and let you know if I do.
If any of my info looks familiar, please let me know.
Thanks,
Jim Moore

Subject: [TNWILSON-L] BROWN and RICE families
Can anyone help me with this? My gggg grandparents were Abijah RICE
and Jaley Ann BROWN. I have found amarriage license for a couple
that I believe to be them in Wilson Co., TN, dated June 19, 1817.
This couple is Jaley Ann BROWN and Elijah RICE, the Elijah I believe
to be a transcriptionist's error (as I found the listing in a book
entitled MARRIAGES OF WILSON CO., TN, as well as in EARLY MIDDLE TN
MARRIAGES).
Abijah was born about 1796 in what is now Cocke County, TN. I
believe that his father's name was William RICE.
Jaley was born about 1802 at a station camp on the Little Duck River,
near the Old Stone Fort near what is now Manchester, Coffee County,
TN. Her father's name was Leonard RICE and her mother's name was
WATHACAPEE (she was Indian).
The bondsman for Jaley and Aibjah's wedding was a Stephen BROWN,
possibly a brother to Jaley. Or in actuality her father may be
Stephen BROWN, and her grandfather may be Leonard.
Does anyone have these people in their databases? My Abijah and
Jaley went to Southeastern Missouri, probably via KY and IL. They
are on the 1830 census for Cape Girardeau Co., MO.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi Bob:
I've responded to you through the list because it was not me who
was looking for the Jones info. It was
VHULL@aol.com (see below). As a
BASS researcher, I was merely inquiring about the accuracy of a JONES/BASS
marriage they showed taking place in Wilson County 28 Feb 1809, when Sistler's
"Early Middle Tennessee Marriages" shows it as taking place in Williamson
County. Do you show this Thomas Jones/Polly Bass marriage in your Wilson
Co. book? If not, then it must be a Williamson County marriage.
Please let us know.

any type of text file to do your web pages with...
If you just add it into your email as you did the one you sent me
yesterday,
that works out fine....
(when you run out of room on one email, just go to another one....)
Whatever way is easiest on you will work for me.....if you want me
to email
some instructions on how to do text files in Microsoft Word, I will
do that
privately and not through the list.
Also, a great editing program that you already have on your
computer is
Notepad....Just go to the Start button, say "Run" and type in "notepad"
(without the quotes)......once you type your data into Notepad, and
save it,
you can either "copy and paste" into an email, or "attach" the file

Subject: [TNWILSON-L] Re: Looking for other people researching Riggan
and marriage bond question
Is there anyone out there looking for Riggan family from Wilson County? My
ggg grandmother was Fredonia Elizabeth Riggan. Her father was Samuel
H.
Riggan and her mom's last name was Tarver. Does anyone who lives in
Wilson
County know any Riggans that I could correspond with? Fredonia was
married to
Sam Tripp/Trippe and had two children Henrietta and Tilman Valrus.
Unfortunately can't find any more records on Sam or where he came from
or
when he was born or when he died. Was their marriage records
of any kind or
any requirement for the posting of marriage bonds in the early 1860s
in
Wilson County? I was hoping that would give me a clue. Cynthia Cline

Gale,
The Knight Cemetery is on Knight's Creek Road. This road is about a
half mile SSW of Statesville , turning south off the Greenvale Road.
The cemetery is about a quarter mile up this road, on the west side.
There was also a Knight School located nearby. Other cemeteries close
to Knight's Cemetery are Spurlock on Jaco Hollow Rd., the Old Spurlock
and Stroud Cemeteries, both on Knight's Creek Rd.

Cynthia,
The Ricketts' Cemetery is located on Rocky Branch Road which is west
of the road between Watertown and Statesville. It is on the south side
of the road, between the turnoffs for Bug Hollow and Griffin Hollow.
Both these roads go north from Rocky Branch but this would give you

Does some one have directions to this cemetary, and or know where I

On another subject (so to speak) I also saw an article in the

sustained in an automobile accident... Mr. and Mrs.Burns had moved to
Texas some years ago. For those who might not know of Frank Burns,
he was one of the historians for Wilson County [note: I don't remember
if it was in an official capacity or not], but he was the author of the above
book on Wilson County, plus some more, I think.... I assume the
designation of "Cumberland Archivist" before Mr. Burns' name means "Cumberland
University (in Lebanon) Archivist" I thought I had saved the
article, but can't find it now.....if I do locate it, I will post it to the

Dear Nancy,
Frank is the archivist at Cumberland University. The last several
years he has spent several weeks in Lebanon a couple of times a year.
Frank was one of the youngest of the Wilson County History Associates
who wrote the original History of Wilson County under the editorship
of Dixon Merritt that was published in 1961. Frank revised the
original book (among other things, adding a much needed index) and now
has written a second volume. I believe he also still writes a
column in the Wilson World.

Hi,
After stumbling on the list, subscribing for a week or two and
lurking a bit I have found to my amazement that there are really people
that are researching Wilson County. My ggf was James B. MOSER, (b Tn
9/1847) I have found him in the 1900 AND 1920 census along with Mary
my ggm and my gf Milton Moser. I have had no luck in finding who James
B. Mosers parents were. There is the MOSIER/MOSER conflict to contend
with,as in the 1920 census, James son Kelly is now Kelly MOSIER. I visited
the Nashville Archives in 1992 in hope of having some luck in figuring
this out. Needless to say that didn't happen. Any direction or help
that anyone could give would be more than appreciated. Have thought
that possibly one or two of the Wison County books recently mentioned
might steer me in one direction or another, any thoughts? Have been
looking now for a number of years and can only make a few very limited
guesses at who they might be.
Thanks,

It refers to a person who is a member of the Cumberland
Presbyterian denomination. A denomination that was formed as an
outgrowth of the Great Awakening of 1800 when revivalism was rampant
on the frontier, especially in Southern Kentucky and
Tennessee. Cumberland Presbyterians, Baptists, and
Methodists were very active in these revivals and well received among the
people in these areas. The Cumbeland Presbyterian Denomination
still exhists. If you want to learn more about it, check the following

Cumberland Presbyterian is a church denomination that was organized
in Dickson Co., TN, February 4, 1810. Three ministers in the
Prebyterian church rejected certain doctrine and decided to form the
Cumberland Presbyterian Church.
Cumberland University in Lebanon was started by the Cumberland
Presbyerians.

EDWARDS and HENRY are two Wilson County, Tenn. names. Parts of

While looking through Ford & Nagle's site at

I see they have several intesting EDWARDS and HENRY photos for sale which
give some hints of relationships:
A. John EDWARDS, CDV by W. E. Johns of Lexington, Ky. (Same studio
as #C-1 below, so John and Will must be related.
B. Rebecca HENRY EDWARDS, mother of William Edwards, Latour
Studios, Sedalia, Missouri.
C. Will EDWARDS 1. CDV by W. E. Johns of Lexington, Ky.
2. CC by B____ Photo, Louisville 1887
D. John HENRY, uncle of William EDWARDS, taken in
Indianapolos, Indiana.
A Carte de Visite (CDV) would like have been a photo from 1860s-1880s.
Cabinet Cards (CCs) are larger, and would have been 1880s-1910.

_The History of Wilson County, TN Volume II - Its Places, Its People,
Its Progress_ , is subtitled _After a Decade 1980 - 1998_, and was
originally published in 1998. This is Volume TWO.
If I'm not mistaken, the original _History of Wilson County, TN_,
which could be called Volume ONE, was published in 1961. It was
reprinted in 1976 with some editing and/or corrections noted.
This book, Volume One, was reprinted yet again (this time without editing)
in 1998 to coincide with the publication of the new Volume Two.
Both books, Volumes I & II, are available from the public libraries
in Wilson County.

Subject: [TNWILSON-L] New to list looking for WOOLARD
HI I am new to this list As I have just been told that My WOOLARD family
may have come from Wilson County, TN, I know from Census On My LuVicie b
1846 in MO that her parents were born in One census TN another IL
Another WOOLARD researcher told me that she had found out that the
Wayne Co. MO WOOLARD'S were from Wilson Co. TN and then Saline Co,
IL at least it is a starting place.
What I do have is her father was Named ALFRED WOOLARD (from Cletis
Ellenhouse, History of Kim, Area, Wayne Co. MO). Cletis sent me the
information he had on LuVicie as she was a member of his book review
and study grope so was able to learn a little about her. She married James
Robert CASEY In Wayne we have found an Alfred Woolard in MO in 1840
and Martha his wife as a widow in 1860 Census I also have Nancy Casey
b 1846 sister of James, Married John WOOLARD Not sure of his relationship
to LuVicey but since James and Nancy are brother and sister I am assuming
that John is related to My LuVicey I just got the information that last night
that My Woolard family may have been from Wilson County so don't have much
information about Wilson with out an age on Alfred makes it hard but
would quest in the early 1800s any help or suggestions would really be
appreciated Than you

Well-guess if it sounds too good to be true-it is!! Besides, there are TOO many US jobs going overseas!! Pamela
Hi Pam,
I ordered microfilms from this Microfilm Expeditors and waited
5 weeks because I ordered 12 rolls at once...if I had ordered (I was
told) one or two rolls I would have them in the short time that was
advertised. When they arrived, an archivist was visiting our library
and he advised us not to order any like it again as they emitted chemicals
which would ruin other microfilm which had been processed properly (ones
that will last a lifetime) It seems the cheaper ones don't last, and
you do get what you pay for. When I last visited with the man in this
company. He was in transit and planning to move the business to China
for cheaper
labor, among other things. Just wanted to share our experience. The
film is okay - not extremely clear as others we have ordered and paid
$20 for. Judy in OK

Subject: [TNWILSON-L] LANE, LAIN etc. in Wilson Co., TN for 1850 Census
LANE / LAIN / LAYNE / LANES / LAINE / LAINS
The following entries are the LANE / LAIN, etc. households enumerated
in Wilson County, TN during the 1850 Federal Census, according to
Byron Sistler's 1850 Census - Tennessee.
I found it interesting that there were no families spelling their name
LAYNE in Wilson Co. at that time. Also, there were several LANE/LAINs
enumerated in OTHER households. They are included here.
In addition, I included one entry from Sumner Co., (Thornton & Fanny
LANE) because of their Wilson Co. ties.
