MAUK, John – Seeking all information about this family group, which appears in the Census records from 1830 thru 1850. The 1850 record was inproperly transcribed as “MANK, John – farmer, age 73 born VA, living with Sarah, age 72, born NC.” I believe this is the patriarch of all the MAUKS who lived in Hawkins Co. I also believe John’s father of Henry MAUK of Sullivan Co. TN, who served in the Rev. War., originally from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. I am also seeking to identify the wife and children of this Henry MAUK. Thank you, Steve by the Golden Gate

Walter G. Palmer Sat Sep 14 19:46:21 1996
My ancestor, Malachi Parmer moved to Hawkins County circa 1823 and appeared on the 1850 census living with another family. I suspect a John Parmer, age 46 and born in VA on the 1850 census was his son. A Mary Parmer, listed as head of household, was also on the 1850 census with the following children: Matilda, Anderson, John, Jane, Enid and William. I suspect she was John Parmer’s wife but they were living apart. On the 1860 census they were evidently living together. There is a marriage listed of John Parmer to Mary Underwood on 8/15/1851 which is confusing unless the previously mentioned John and Mary had children and then legitamatized their marriage. There is also a marriage of Samuel Parmer to Mary Jane Loughmill on 11/2/1860. I suspect all these people may be related and would appreciate any information on these individuals. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Albert Loyd Starnes Fri Sep 6 07:29:50 1996
LOYD
Trying to find information on Charles LOYD who lived in Green Co., TN from 1830 – 1870. Need to find who his father was. Anyone researching this surname? The following is information that I have gathered. 1850 census lists Charles’s age as 33 making birth around 1817. In 1860 census it lists his age as 41, making birth around 1819. In 1880 census shows his age as 61, making his birth around 1819 as well. Pleasant Vale cemetery records show his birth date 6/29/1814. Seeing as two different census years indicate birth to be around 1819, I feel that they are more accurate. 1880 census also shows that he was born in Tennessee, and that his father and mother were both from Virginia. He is living with “adopted daughter” Jane E. Jones (35). ERASMUS LOYD had a daughter by the name of ELIZA JANE. Charles was the executor of ERASMUS’ estate. Could this Eliza truely be an “adopted” daughter? Per information gathered by Pat Rowe, genealogy researcher for the Greeneville Library, she believes that Charles’ father could have been either a Thomas or Robertson/Robinson Loyd. After further research on my own, I’m inclined to believe that Charles is the son of ROBINSON LOYD and PHEOBE PHILLIPS. Reasons: When Charles marries, Britton PHILLIPS is a witness. Charles PHILLIPS was a brother to Pheobe PHILLIPS who were the children of Dyer Phillips who loaned money to JAMES LOYD as shown in court records. Apparently, Charles Loyd may have been named after his “mother’s” brother CHARLES PHILLIPS. Charles and Margaret’s wedding was from Greene Co. TN Marriages 1783-1868 book by Goldene Fillers Burgner c. 1981. It shows that ROBINSON LOYD and PHOEBE PHILLIPS were married Dec. 30, 1807. Charles and Margaret had a BRITTAIN PHILLIPS as one of their witnesses. This could be another possible connection between these two LOYD families. There are no land records that would indicate that there is a connection to Robinson Loyd seeing as most all of the land that Charles acquires is through his wife Margaret’s side of the family….ROGERS.
