TUCKER
TUCKER, Charles Samuel died in Lawrenceburg, TN on May 12, 1907. He & his family came to Lawrenceburg about 1906. I’m wondering if there might have been some news worthy accident at that time that contributed to his death and was published in the local newspaper. I have been unable to find a official death record in TN

WESTER
Searching for the parents & siblings of Hartwell WESTER who came from NC into TN. His full name may have been Hartwell Washington James WESTER.

Private Private 222 602.” We know nothing about his parents or siblings, but we do know that he & his wife “Fanny” had 2 children before he was murdered in a dispute over land about 1823 Lawrence Co TN (a record shows payment of $12 to a coroner July 1823 regarding his death but exact date of death not shown). Children: son John J. WESTER born 1819 Lawrence Co TN died of pneumonia 1864. He was a Colonel in the US Standing Army listed as a wagon maker in U.S. Census of 1860, Lawrence Co TN. Other child was daughter variously mentioned in family accounts as Malica(?) or Lamecia(?) who died in early childhood. If you have any info on our Hartwell WESTER please contact me!
