WEBB, SMITH

I am researching John WEBB (b. abt 1825 in Ireland? or TN?) and Louvica SMITH (b. abt 1829 in Jackson Co, Tn?) m. abt. 1839 or 1840. Their 1st child was born in 1840. They had 12 children the last of which was b. 1858. The family is found in the 1850 census for Smith Co but I believe that Smith was formed from Jackson Co. Later the whole family shows up in Iron Co, Mo in 1870 census, minus John Webb. What happened to him?Did he die or did he go back to Ireland? any info appreciated.

CANTRELL, FRY, FRYE

Hello, I am Dr. Richard Cantrell and I was raised in Albany, Georgia. I was born in 1954 and my father was James Howard Cantrell. He was born in March 1915 or 1916, probably in Tennessee, his father was Marion CANTRELL. He supposedly was married to a Cherokee Indian, last name FRYE or FRY. As both grandparents passed on prior to my birth and my father spoke little of them except of his Indian heritage, I have little to go on. I know that my Grandparents were married in Tennessee probably at the turn of the century give or take ten years but I don't know the county or anything like that and I know that the Cantrell's came to Tennessee from Georgia or South Carolina. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Looking for information on the ancestry and decendents of Dow STAFFORD, b. 1840(?). Dow was married to Martha STAFFORD and had several children, including my g grandfather, William STAFFORD. William married Celina STAFFORD and they had several children: Van, Frank, Cordell, Vilvie, Averette, Lovell, Hattie, Versie, Rosco, and Monedith. From census records at the Jackson County library, Dow may have been the son of Wriley STAFFORD (William Riley or Riley) and the great grandson of Joseph STAFFORD, Sr who came to TN in the early 1800's from NC. According to my records, this line of STAFFORD's liked to marry other STAFFORD's so the above female entries are not mistakes. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

JACKSON, BILLINGSLEY, PIPPIN, JULIAN

My mother's great-grandfathers on both the maternal and paternal sides were named JACKSON from Jackson County. One was Silas JACKSON dob around 1830 (It showed on the 1880 Census that both his parents were born in NC but we do not know their names) who married Susanna BILLINGSLEY dob around 1822. Her mother's father was Joseph JACKSON dob around 1819 (IT showed on the 1880 Census that both his parents were also born in NC) married Martha _____? dob around 1826. America JACKSON, daughter of Silas JACKSON, married James K. PIPPIN and Tennessee JACKSON, daughter of Joseph JACKSON, married?-had a child, my grandmother, named Olive Eve JULIAN. Tennessee later married a Rains JACKSON. With so many JACKSONS involved-would anyone know if Silas and Joseph JACKSON were brothers? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also I know nothing about the BILLINGSLEYS except for the name Susanna and would love to connect with that line.

WEBB-MINOR -SMITH-TAYLOR-SIDWELL-MARSHALL-HISER

Jesse TAYLOR was said to have been born in Jackson Co,Tenn. Sometimes around 1850's or 1860's. His first wife was Ellen SIDWELL. They had a son, Samuel TAYLOR, who married Lillie Myrtle SMITH. Her parents were John J. SMITH and Sarah J. (MINOR) SMITH. Was Granville MINOR, Sarah's brother? Was William Washington WEBB their uncle? He is said to be their mother's brother. So that would mean that A Webb female, married a male Minor. I know not-the names of Sarah and Granville Minor's parents. Could someone fill me in? William Washington WEBB lived in Metcalfe Co,Ky., at one time. His son was Lester WEBB, who is said to have married an Edwards.
