Duncan, James Whitten “Jamo”

Posted on by

DUNCAN, James Whitten “Jamo”, was born in Hardin County, Tennessee, the son of Alsa and Elizabeth DUNCAN. He was called to the Army when he was 23 years old on 6 Aug 1918. He served as Pvt., Battery “B” 137th Field Artillery. He served overseas from 6 Oct 1918 until 23 Dec 1918 and was discharged at Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indiana on 13 Jan 1919. At enlistment he was 23 years old, a farmer. He had brown eyes, black hair, a dark complexion and was 6’1″ tall.

He married Sina WILBANKS and they had five children: Harry, Mary Elizabeth, Ruth, Patsy and Polly. Harry’s children are Harry. Jr., Larry, Janice, Ann, and Tommy Joe. Mary Elizabeth had one son, Ronnie; Ruth had three children: Maxel, Gary, and Deanna. Patsy had one daughter, Jean Ann. Polly had three children: Joe Denton, Jeff and Joan.

Jamo’s mother would tell his children about him riding a boat to Perryville, Tennessee and walking on home. They were all asleep when the dogs started barking and she heard someone whistling. She knew it was her precious son, Jamo, coming home. She awakened everyone in the house shouting, “Praise the Lord!” This was the best Christmas present she ever received.

He was a fine person and a wonderful father. He worked hard and taught his children well. He died in 1963. He was working for the State Highway Department and is buried in Savannah Memorial Gardens. Written by his daughter, Mary E. DUNCAN WILKERSON.

Salem Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery

GPS Coordinates: 35° 26¢ 07² N, 87° 41¢ 34² W

Submitted by David & Martha Montgomery. This enumeration was completed on Thursday, March 29, 2007. Updated 16 February 2009.

To reach the Salem Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery, from the courthouse square in Waynesboro. Travel east on highway 64 for 1.2 miles and turn left onto highway 99. Go approximately 2.5 miles to the Wayne County Memory Gardens. Continue on highway 99 by turning left at the Memory Gardens and go 4 miles. Turn left in front of the Topsy Fire Department onto Topsy Road and travel 3 miles. Turn right onto Pea Ridge Road and go .5 miles. Turn left onto Salem Church Rd. and go .3 miles down the hill. The church and cemetery are at the base of the hill overlooking the Buffalo River. The church was organized in 1821.

The following remarks are those of Clifford Allen Meredith on March 11, 2007 during a Wayne County Historical Society meeting at the church.

The first settlers came to Wayne County in 1815 by wagon train. The members of this party camped at a big spring overnight. Lovic & Jane Rasbury were traveling with the wagon train. Their child became ill, died and became the first grave in this cemetery. Jane Rasbury would not move on because her child was buried here.

The total members being ten, Lovic Rasbury, was chosen and ordained deacon. The door was opened for reception of members. Lonnie Staggs & Elijah Pope were received. Elder, Willis Dodson of Hickman County was the first pastor. Lovic Rasbury & Thomas Meredith were the deacons for many years. Elder, Edd Perkins became a deacon in 1834. By 1900 the membership was ninety-one.

About 1875, the log church building was replaced by the present building. In 1929, the association discontinued church at Salem. On November 15, 1953, the church was reorganized with R.G. Rhodes called as pastor with Stanley Hinson as assistant. Ordained deacons were Clifford Meredith, Clemon Meredith and Floyd Broadway. Present deacons are Jimmy Doyle Meredith & Clifford Allen Meredith, the latter also serving as church clerk. Presently, the pastor is Elder Clifton Johnson.

Enumerators Note:
There are approximately 100 unknown graves in this cemetery. Of the approximately 450 persons presently buried here, 42% of those were born in the 1800’s. Of that number, 25% of those were born and also died in the 1800’s. Lovic & Jane Meredith, born 25 Feb 1781 & 21 Aug 1777 respectively were the parents of the child who was the first person buried here.

Little Hope Cemetery or North Highland Cemetery

Posted on by

This cemetery is located on Hwy 13N less than a mile from Bell Bridge. A Church of Christ was started there in abt. 1946. The site also held a Methodist Church that has been torn down.

There are several names on gravestones of living people and people who were not buried there. I am enumerating all the names on all the gravestones.
