    • I found a James Jordan of Woodland Mills, TN who was born January 1, 1910 and died in May of 1987. Does this sound like who you are looking for?

      • The information on James Jordan of Woodland Mills is correct. Is there any more information on him, I know my grandmother was Ruth (Watson) Jordan, is there any information on her. Where can I find out about their parents, I can’t find any birth certificates..I know she lived in Gibson county growing up. Thanks so much.

  1. I am looking for any information on Julia Holloway (Shoemaker) died sometime between 1909 in Obion County Tennessee. He husband at time of death was Robert Caleb Holloway a merchant at Obion. No place of burial known.
