CULLOM, BROWN

In 1940 the Historical Records Project apparently transcribed Tennessee Bible Records, then they were microfilmed by the Genealogical Society of Utah in 1940. One bible that was transcribed was the Cullom Family Bible. The provinance of the bible was that it was owned by Mrs. R. H. Brown of Cookeville, Tennessee and previously owned by Alvin Cullom, Livingston, Tennessee. I would like to locate the current owner of the bible because I believe there are errors in the transcript. Does anyone know any of the descendants of Mrs. R. H. Brown? I will appreciate any help you can give me.

BRASSELL, ALLISON

Maryville Index (Maryville, TN) April 3, 1878 The hanging of the Brassell brothers at Cookeville, Tennessee has created a great deal of excitement. Their names were George Andrew and Joseph Lewis Brassell, and were hanged for the murders of Russell and Claude Allison in the presence of a crowd of people estimated to be 10,000 in number. George denied being connected with the murders, but Joseph confessed his guilt. It is the same old story of bad company, disobedience, Sabbath breaking, whiskey and murder. Joseph made the following farewell address: "Gentlemen and Ladies: I wish to speak a few words to you if you will hear me. I am here to die today. And what is it for? Murder, murder! What is the cause of it? Whiskey, bad company and hard seeking after money. I was a reckless boy. Let me give you some advice--let whiskey alone. Have nothing to do with whiskey. Take warning by me. It has brought me here in this fix, and you are all liable to be put in this condition by following the same course. Young men,

ANDERSON

I am researching the family of my G. Grandfather George Hubbard ANDERSON. His family lived in Putnam County Tennessee before the 1900's. George Anderson came to the OK Indian Territory with his brothers Walter and Samuel and married Pearl Bertha Hart, my Choctaw G. Grandmother. While he was living near Soper OK in Choctaw County, he received a letter from Putnam Co. Tennessee addressed to him and his brothers stating that their father had died January 12, 1895 and was buried near the front door of the family home. The letter mentions Vernie Austin and is signed E.E. Anderson. The letter indicates that their grandmother was still living at the time and that their mother has already passed away. If anyone has information on the history of this family, I would appreciate hearing from them.
