WILSON, DUMFORD

Looking for information on Andy (Andrew) Wilson, born ca 1810-1820. He had a farm in Tennessee during the Civil War; it was somewhere between Tullahoma (Coffee County) and Nashville. He had a daughter Mary Erastus Dumford (born ca 1831) was a Union soldier from Ohio who was injured in the Battle of Chickamaugua (sp?). Erastus deserted after that and somehow, ended up at Andy Wilson’s farm where he died around 1864-65. His wife’s name in Ohio was Josephine. His first wife was Susanna South (she died after they had five children). A son was Isaac Dumford. I’m trying to find out where the Wilson farm was. Erastus Dumford was buried on it or in a nearby cemetery. It is thought that he might have married Mary Wilson.

BARRETT, HOLDSWORTH

HENRY BARRETT, married to my great-great-grandmother. Story has it that he was killed by a splinter from a tree. He was a foreman or boss over some men cutting logs in Georgia. The splinter stuck him in the heart, he pulled it out and died. I believe that HENRY BARRETT was Granma’s 2nd Husband. LILLIE BARRETT is another name given, I think she’s an aunt. First husband was JAMES HORACE HOLDSWORTH, he died of cancer. MY GRANDFATHER was JAMES HORACE HOLDSWORTH, JR. Aunt Rosie told me that Jim was just a little boy at the time, and his mother stayed in a dried goods store to get money to raise Jim Jr. At some point he must have migrated to DeKalb County where he married Winnie (Robinson) Holdsworth. They had about 10 children–Sophia Holdsworth (Pete) is my mother. If anybody from Pittsburg Tenn is willing to help, I’d really appreciate it. Need something else to go on. Thanks.

Mothers name was Nellie Cody Anderson, later remarried and became Nellie Parrish. Jack married Della Ethel Graham also born in Whitwell, April 6, 1900. They were married in Whitwell around August 1917. I saw you have a book that is a Whitwell Scrapbook. I know you cannot do searches, but I am desperate to find out what happened to Jack. My father-in-law was only nine when his mother (Della) died. Jack abandoned the family and we do not know where he died. He has not been seen since early 1940.

ROBERSON,FUQUA

James ROBERSON, Born 1737 in Scotland, came to America and Married Mary FUQUA at Bledsoe in 1756. They had a number of children, including Roysdon ROBERSON born 1757 in Bledsoe He married Mary Lou STOVALL in that area and they had children including William ROBERSON born in 1806 they moved to Missouri in about 1827. Mary Lou died in 1822 and Roysdon died in 1828 and they were buried in Maries County Mo. However, the two elders James and Mary(Faqua) were buried in The Old Indian Burial Grounds at Marion.. Questions: Did James travel from Scotland alone to Virginia? Is the fact that he came to Cherokee territory and was buried at the old Indian Burial Grounds significant? Who are the other children of James and Mary & Roysdon & Mary Lou? What do you make of the unusual given name Roysdon? Roy’s sire? We have this end of the puzzle with more than 1,000 descendents of James R. Happy to share all of this! Rev Hubert Roberson

KILGORE’S

1850 Marion County Census shows NANCY KILGORE, age 51 LOUISA 20 JAMES A. 34 ALEX 15 ISSAC 6 Issac’ Death Certificate shows Father; JIM KILGORE, Mother: HALEY STINNETTE. ALEX’S Death Certificate shows Father: JIM KILGORE, Mother: SUSAN KILGORE. Does anyone doing Marion County research on the KILGORE family know who NANCY’S husband was and when he died? I’ve heard NANCY was ISSAC’s and ALEX’s mother but Military Records and Death Certificate’s do not bear this out. NANCY also had ason JOHN who moved to Arkansas in mid 1880’s. Is NANCY the Grandmother and JAMES A. the father? Will be happy to exchange info with any interested.
