Greetings List,
I am looking for information about the Mulbery Methodist Church. According
to one of my sources, my great grandfather Epps L. Jones was a local deacon
there sometime in the mid to late 1800's. It is said that he performed
marriages and that there are records of the marriages somewhere.
Is there someone who has the history of the church and may know if his name
is there?
Thanks for your help.

Lincoln couty, so I want to throw this out one more time.

Billie, I had not seen you post that you have the Dickey connection also.
My gg-grandfather Bradford married Laura Elizabeth Ann Dickey, youngest
child of Ephriam Dickey. Then my grandfather comes up with "Hurley" as a
middle name. Must be a connection here somewhere as they were all in
Lincoln County. Haven't added the Dickey to my list as I've found a lot of
info on them in a book in the Lincoln County Library (I live about 30 miles
south in Huntsville, AL). There is a book in the genealogy section of
Does anyone have any knowledge of the following family? I beleave Mathew
Moss was born in Lincoln County as he appears there through 1850. After that
he seems to have been beamed up by aliens. Most of his children were married
in Polk County Missouri after 1856. Any help will be appreciated.
Mathew Moss Born: 1815 Tennessee
Father may have been Edward Moss

Does anyone have information on the following:
Joe Owens married to Ann Evans
their children were:
Joe Jr.
Sarah (or Mary) married Sanford White of Giles County
Logan married Sarah Evans Whaley
John (my direct line) married Elizabeth Brown, Ann Brown and is buried next
to his third wife, Martha Ann Walker
I have good records on the descendants of John Owens but NOTHING on Joe, Joe
Jr., Ann Evans, or the ancestry of the wives of John except for family lore
that Ann Brown was the widow of Sam Brown.
Sorry. Individuals listed below would be CHILDREN, not siblings of James.

I remember seeing a small family history in the Lincoln County Genealogical
Society Library that had some information about this line of McAfee and McCree.
But, I cannot remember which family history it was. Maybe someone else can
remember.

Dear List,
Those of you who are trying to separate out the various
1830 era and earlier times for STEWARTS, STUARTS of Lincoln Co.
should keep in mind Peggy Stuart, listed in the 1830 census for
Lincoln Co. She was a widow with up to 10 children. It is very
likely that she and her husband, (whose name I don't know) tried
to settle in Mississippi, prior to 1823. Anyway some time after
1825, he died, I don't know where, and by 1830 Peggy moved (to)
or (back to) Lincoln Co.
Peggy and her
I came across the listing of available newspapers on microfilm:
Name of Roll Title
FAY 101 The Village Messenger 1823-1828 (the one I'm viewing now)
FAY 102 Lincoln Journal 1840-1861 (I bought this one also.)
FAY 103-FAY 132 Lincoln County News 1876-1976 (approx. 30 rolls)
FAY 201-FAY 238 Fayetteville observer 1850-1965 (some of this is posted at
the Lincoln Co. USGenweb page.)
FAY 239 Elk Valley Times 1966
The above microfilm rolls can be ordered @ $20 per roll from Tennessee State

Amen and Amen to both. And what about my Indian ancestors - how were they
treated. My Irish ancestors - how they were treated. I haven't found ANY
rich plantation owners in my ancestors. Just people who fought in the War
of Northern Aggression to protect their families.
