BARR
Lonnie Elrod Thur Oct 29 7:41am 1998
I am looking for info on John BARR who is listed in the 1820 White County Census. It shows him having in his household 3 male and 4 female children under the age of 10 as well as 1 female between 26-45. I believe he could be my g-g-g-g-g-grandfather. A
ll that is known is that he was born in NC in 1788, his son William was born in 1811, and before William had his son Jacob in 1832, the family had moved to White County, TN. I believe this means that the BARR family moved from NC to White County between
1811 (when William was born) and 1832 (when Jacob was born in White County). Does anyone have any info on this BARR line?

KNOWLES
marcia Sat Sep 12 1:16am 1998
KNOWLES. My husband's ancestors where the KNOWLES family of White Co., headed by Irishman John W. KNOWLES, b 1749, d 1838, bd Mt. Pisgah Cemetery. My query specifically involves this cemetery which adjoins Mt. Pisgah Church. Could anyone tell me the origin of the unusual style of stone slab grave markers in this cemetery? Countless graves (indeed, the majority) are marked by large rectangular stone slabs leaning at an angle against each other at the tops, forming a triangle with the ground below. Mos
t have upright stone markers standing in front with identifying name-date info. I have never seen these stone slab markers in any other cemetery in our nation, although the style is similar in some ways to a style used in some parts of Ireland. When I vis
ited Sparta about 6 years ago, Mt. Pisgah's pastor did not have an answer. If anyone knows why this particular cemetery used this particular marker --- and in such large numbers, I would greatly enjoy hearing the explanation. Many thanks! Marcia.

He married Margaret SCARBROUGH of Putnam County (Board Valley) in 1868 in Sparta. They had a daughter, Molly who later married Willie STULTS. The surname BRAMLET may be a clue, but I have not had any luck finding Simeon in 1850 or 1860. There was a Simeon Bramlet living in White County in 1850, but he has no 2 or 3 year old son. There is a Simeon Rogers in Maury Co. and a Sion Rogers in Warren, but upon investigation these are not my G-G Grandfather.

Elvira Jane Denton b. 1845 was a daughter of Hightower Denton and Nancy Witt. In all the transcriptions I have seen of the 1850 and 1860 census records, Elvira has been mis-translated. She was called "Virey" and I believe the census taker tried to write t
his but it has been transcribed as "Mary" and "Marv". She married George Washington Roberts and they moved to Morgan County, Al in l867. I have more info if anyone is interested.

RANDOLPH
Jo Hughes Thur Sep 3 1:20pm 1998
RANDOLPH - My ancestor, Euretha Randolph, was born in Sep., 1866 to a mixed marriage. Her father was Eugene B. RANDOLPH, Cherokee - the mother's name is not known. Would a mixed Indian/White family have been listed in censuses or any other record in White County in this timeframe? I am hopeful of finding some link to their existence, perhaps in the 1870 census. Please let me hear any comments about finding this family. Sincere thanks, Jo Hughes, Seattle
LETT - IRICK

Need information on family of John Lett found in 1840 U.S. Census, White Co., TN.
Besides counting his spouse there were 6 males (all sons?) and 2 females (all daughters?).
This Census was enumerated by John W. Lett who may have been the same person. Could not find the family in 1850 White Co.Census. There was another John LETT in Anderson Co., TN at same time, but it's a different family. Wondering if the John JETT in White Co., a sheriff, was the same person for have often observed the similarity of the letter "L" in old handwriting appearing as a "J". Thanks for any help.
