Feb 2 1855 in Wayland Springs and d.Dec 18,1940)and Sarah Jane(Jamie) WILLIS(b.Nov 10, 1860 in Lawrence Co. Tn. and d.Jan 20, 1930). Both parents died in Savannah,Hardin Tn. William and Jamie ADKISSON were married on Aug 7, 1879. I assume in Lawrence Co? If my only source is correct, Mabel ADKISSON’S siblings were Virgil S., Hawtie M., Ida B., James Walter,and Edgar Trew ADKISSON, all born between 1880 and 1889. It appears that all or most of her family moved to Hardin county sometime after her birth. Mabel ADKISSON married Judge E Everett MABRY in Hardin Co Tn. They had one child, Raymond Earnest MABRY. I would appreciate a 1980 and\/or 1990 Lawrence County Census lookup and any information anyone might have in regard to my grandmother and her parents, grandparents and siblings.
