FAMILY GATHERINGS

Prepared for publication by Mary Louise Graham Nazar

A YOUNG MANIS QUEST - Contributed by Mrs. Irene Tucker Chenoweth Alexander Douglass

5744 Barfield Circle, Memphis, TN 38119

A journal was written in Stewartsboro, TN by Hiram Kellogg NORTHWAY from December
1851 to December 1852. During this time he was getting established in the business
world, searching for his religious ideology, ;oining the Masons and sorting out his
feelings for the Southern belles before choosing the right one. He had come South
for his health. A daughter continued writing in the journal in 1875 when they were
living in Bexar Co TX. Hiram was born 8 Feb 1822 in Syracuse, N.Y., son of Josiah
and Ruth (Branch) Northway. He married 13 Oct 1852 Somerville, Fayette Co TN to
Susan Emeline PARKS, born 12 Jun 1831, daughter of John McDowell Parks and Hiley
TUCKER. H.K. died 20 Jan 1905 and Susan died Oct 1915, both in Nashville, TN.

Stewartsboro, Rutherford Co TN was a village near the Nashville Pike on Stewart
Creek and a place of some business, but when the railroad was completed in 1851 from
Nashville past Smyrna to Murfreesboro then business shifted to Smyrna. Hiram worked
for Mr. Fleming, a merchant in Stewartsboro. So how did he meet and marry a girl
living in Fayette Co TN? Susan/Sue E was visiting home of her cousin? Carrie Tucker
in Rutherford Co at the home of a Maj. Tucker. In the 1850 census Hiram is boarding
in the home of Silas Tucker. In the 1838 Fayette Co TN Deed Book is the following
entry: John M. Parks and wife H~ley and Ewing D. THOMPSON and wife Emeline, all of
Fayette Co, relinquish to Silas Tucker of Rutherford Co their interest in the dower
tract of Susan Tucker, widow of William Tucker, which land came to William by John
Tucker.

From this point let H.K. tell his story, but notice that he starts the journal on
Christmas day, a melancholy time to be away from family. Even if your surname is
not mentioned in this journal his words give an excellent picture of life in this
time period so you could imagine your ancestors and their activities day to day.

Stewartsboro, Rutherford Co Tenn Dec 25th 1851
To the one most dear the following pages are most respectfully dedicated. And altho
she will never read them my spirits musings shall be truly & unequivocably portrayed
so far as thoughts & feelings can be expressed through the medium of words. But the
one most dear: Who is that one? At twenty-eight I find this a difficult question to
answer. A sad predicament for an old batchelor. Does not this state of feeling or
want of concentration of feeling point out one of the greatest of my failings. I
have lived thus far without any definite purpose the sport of chance buffeted about
by every wave of fortune untill I have lost almost all individuality & have become
merely a mixture or compound of other peoples parts. If I had pursued one purpose
had kept one object in view & by the force of will made everything bend to that ob-
ject would it have been so difficult for me now to have told who that one most dear
was. Would there not have been one of all my acquaintances confessedly more dear
than all others? Yes habitual consentration of mind would have led to such a result

& I should not now have been left in the dark as to who that one most dear may be.

Well I'll have a general overhauling of all the caverns of my heart place each fair

friend separately upon the alter & see which causes the quickest pulsation. Oh Love

Love I once thought I had made your acquaintance but I more than half suspect that
had the sensation I called love been impartially analized it would have consisted

of Avarice Pride & Lust a sad trio to be amalgamated & pass themselves for Love.

But this is a great digression from the usual routine of Journalists but as I in-
tended it is rather a journal of thoughts or reveries than of events it must pass as
it is - Changing the subject \;fuat a strange way peop~e have of celebrating Christmas.
The most solemn event in the history of the world is annually celebrated by

festivities & frequently by excesses that would better become the triumphal celebra-
tion of a successful General. The day that should be spent in heartfelt Thanks-
giving & prayer in deep humiliation & contrition is spent in riotous living & bois-
terous amusements. "Tis Strange tis passing strange to mark our fallacies" I shall
soon have to leave the place I have occupied for four years past & cast my lot
amongst strangers. Nearly four years of my life has past here & how am I benefited.
Not in wealth for I have not accumulated any. Not in moral improvement for I have
rather retrograded. I have gained some experience it is true but it seems as tho I
had paid dearly for it. But vain regrets are useless. Warm cloudy & rainy through
the day but cleared off about 9 o'clock at night.

Dec 26th 1851 Another day is past & has borne to eternity its record of
human events. Upon the Annals of eternity are recorded the various transactions of
every individual that is now an inhabitant of earth. One who rolls in wealth &
luxury who counts his gold by thousands whose broad acres extends for miles around
whose servants obsequiously stand to do his bidding has defrauded a poor widow of
her might & cast her friendless from her home & added her once quiet cottage to the
list of his possessions--Another with honede? accents & deceitful tongue has led
that fair being to her destructions & while an unfeeling world sends her forth as a
thing to vile for society it receives him the destroyer the fiend incarnate to its
bosom caressingly & prepares the way for another ruined character broken heart & un-
timely grave. Another by misrepresentation & falsehood has brought his neighbor to
disgrace & infamy thus probing that "Tis' ehe slanderer whose edge is sharper than
the sword whose tongue out venoms all the worms of Nile."

Spent an hour very pleasantly after breakfast and another after supper with "Car-
rie" & Miss Susan Parkes. Miss Carrie is a very sprightly girl with great origina-
lity perfect truthfulness & sincerity. With a heart alive to sympathy & kindness a
mind stored with a knowledge of the choicest literature of the english language she
is well adapted to promote the happiness of anyone who is worthy of so noble a girl.
Miss Susan is one of those rare persons who unite great piety with cheerfulness mod-
esty with frankness & an independent spirit with a proper humility of deportment.
She is well educated converses with ease & is on the whole an ornament to the church
to society & to her family - In the society of these two young ladies I feel more at
ease & enjoy myself better than with any body else. But do I love either of them?
If so which? I have not gone through that self examination yet. When I have done
so perhaps I can answer that question more to my satisfaction. Brown B has been
Sick and I have been alone for two days. Nothing remarkable has occurred. Felt
great depression of spirits part of the day. Lay abed too late this morning. Suf-
fered myself to become somewhat irritated very foolishly. Have not read a chapter
in the bible in a week. Have an invitation to go to Jackson Smiths. Cloudy

Dec 27th 1851 With a consciousness of great remissness & neglect of duty
I sit down to recount the transaction of the day. In the first place I got up too
late in the morning went to breakfast too late came back too late & in short was too
late about everything. The consequence is I have not enjoyed myself at all today.
I have been gloomy morose sullen dull spiritless soulless a curse to myself a blight
to society & a general nuisance in the most general acceptation of the term. The
weather has been cloudy & my spirits cloudyer storms without & storms within. It is
strange that I cannot learn from experience. When I do right I feel happy, when I
do wrong I feel miserable, thus proving in my case at least that even in this life
virtue has its reward & vice its punishment. That a correct course of conduct will
meet with an approving conscience & the smiles of heaven while the reverse invariable
attends the abuse of the talents that God has given us. Well they say the road to
hell is paved with good resolutions so I'll lay down another rock. Or in other words
make another resolution. But a resolution to do one single thing would do so little
towards reforming me that I will comprise several in one. I will try to do right in

Spring 1990 5

future. I wonder what it is that casts such a shadow over my spirit at times. If I

knew the cause I might possibly remove it. It is not because I have been disappoint-
ed in Love for it was the same before I ever dreamed of Love. I recollect my mother
told me once that I must overcome that spirit of Jealousy that I unfortunately pos-
sess or it would render me unhappy all my life. Is it not this feeling of jealousy
that sheds its mildew over my spirit. When I am in the company of two or more per-
sons that are very much attached to each other I frequently become very melancholy.
If I should meet with some person in whom I could place the most unlimited confidence

into whose willing ear I could pour all my sorrows & be sure of meeting all that sym-
pathy that my spirit craves one that I could love more than all other & meet with a
full return one that would make me their entire confident & look to me for sympathy
& consolation under all their afflictions would not this have a tendency to remove

their gloomy thoughts from my mind. If I could only feel that I was essential to the

happiness of a single being & that person one that I loved I believe that I should

enjoy as much happiness as usually falls to the lot of erring mortals. But the mis-
fortune is if I should allow myself to love the probability is it would not be re-
turned. My last status then would be worse than the first--Rained all day. Business
dull--

Dec 28th 1851 Well I formed a resolution yesterday to do right in future.
And how have I kept it? By transgressing in the very way that I did yesterday. I

lay abed so late that I could not go to breakfast in time & finally concluded to do

without it. The consequence was I suffered with a most intolerable head ache all

day. Mrs Jas & Miss Jane Canon came home with us from preaching at the Ewing Church.
I went there in the Barouche in company with Miss Susan Park & Carrie. Mr Hill

preached from the first part of the first chapter of the epistle of Paul to Peter

commencing "Now add to your faith etc" & ending at the 8th verse. He gave a clear &

practical deffinition of the terms faith patience hope brotherly kindness charity etc
etc. Showed the effect of these principles upon the human mind the way in which we

are benefited by practicing them & evil effects of a neglect of a proper culture of
them. The Sermon was not long but still comprehensive 6tle plain practical & inter-

esting. On the whole I think it one of the best sermons I have heard him preach.
After returning from preaching I should have enjoyed myself very well were it not for
the before mentioned headache. We sat in the parlor most of the evening conversing
upon various subjects but chiefly the great & important subject of matrimony. Mr.
Canon seemed to be somewhat devoted in his attentions to Miss Carrie & "him" I felt
equally so in my attentions to Miss Sue. I am afraid I stand on dangerous ground.
I am rather inclined to think that Miss Sue is already engaged. Well I'll try to

guard that truant member the seat of life alo? & love too from becoming too much in-

terested. We took a walk in the evening nearly to the toll gate. Miss Sue became
more than usually animated & interesting. Were it not for fear of disinterested eyes
I would confess to you my dear Journal that I am more than half in Love with that
same Miss S-- But a "burnt child dreads the fire" consequently I dread falling in

Love. I wonder if it hurts any body else to be discarded as bad as me. If it does
they have a better faculty of concealing it. If it does not I pity their insensi-

bility, for I had rather possess a sensitive mind & suffer in consequence than to

pass through life without possessing these finer sensibilities-- After leaving the
Ladies room I had a long & interesting conversation with Mr. Canon. I like him much
better than I do many of greater pretense. His kindness to his parents his unassum-

ing worth & real piety render him a more desirable companion or friend than is every
day met with. The weather was warm & cloudy with some appearance of rain--

Dec 30 1851 & 31st Tuesday was an important era in my history. The pre-

vious evening I recd an invitation to attend a party at Mr Lytles. It rained nearly
all day. I staid in the store untill dinner & then got ready to go to the party.

Went in the barouche in company with Miss Susan P & Carrie T. Enjoyed the ride very

Family Gatherings (continued)

altho it rained all the time. The Ladies were in fine spirits conversed upon var-

ious subjects such as love future prospects matrimony choice of companions qualifi-

cations necessary etc etc. Got to Col King's before dark & proceeded to J Lytles

where we arrived about dark without any serious accident. Found a large company

there notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather. The cheerful sounds of the

violin accompanied with the gingling of the banjo soon set the company to dancing.

This was continued until about 2 oclock when the Ladies retired to their beds & the

gentlemen to the card table & whiskey bottle. A few choice spirits assisted by

liberal potations of alchoholic spirits continued this exciting amusement until the

eastern horizon was illuminated by the rising sun. Before breakfast the dance was

resumed & continued without interruption till dinner. About 11 oclock I left on

horseback in co of Col King & Jas B. Moore for the residence of Col King. After en-

joying a comfortable dinner I rode with Jim Moore to his plantation the future re-

sidence of himself & his fair "Ladie Love. II The situation ,vas pleasant but the

dwelling & out houses were sadly out of repair. But with youthful weded love for

their guest it may still be an earthly paradise. Came back to Col Kings & found

quite a large party of young ladies & gentlemen congregated in the parlor. After

supper each sought his or her favorite amusement. Some conversed others played

drafts thimble, honor", & other similar intellectual amusements. As for me I

sat in the corner & looked on as I usually do. But afterwards was guilty of perpe-

trating the following for which I pray forgiveness -

The first day of Jan 1852 Our hostess as clever as clever could be

The ladies were witty & fair to behold great & small

The gentlemen groggy vulgar & bold For myself in the presence of beauty I'm

Our host was obliging generous & free a fool

So I'll take my seat on the penitents'

stool

The Company was what is called the upper ten but I found to my utter astonishment

that there were some drunkards some knaves & more fools even on the upper shelf.

Think if I should go in company more my organ of self esteem would become wonderous-

ly developed for I find there are other fools in the world beside myself.

Jany 1 1852 Breakfasted at Col Kings & left about 10 oclock for home.

The weather was cold & drizzly the roads rough & muddy. Notwithstanding all this I

enjoyed the ride very well. There is something in the society of these lovely girls

that interests me to say the least. Look out you crabbed old batchelor you may be

entraped notwithstanding all your boasts of unsusceptibility. After dinner I went

to the store. Nothing of interest occurred. Gave Miss Sue a christmas gift con-

sisting of a copy of Campbells poems. Felt much more like giving her myself. But

feared the gift would be less acceptable. Passed the day without doing one good

deed or forming a good resolution. I hope this day may not be an index of the year.

If it is it will be a year lost. A year lost: How awful that will sound at that

bar before which we must all stand. Life is short at best & still I loose fully one

half my time or misspend it which is still worse.

Jan 2nd 1852 Arose & Breakfasted early. Spent an hour or so with the

girls in the parlor & then went with them to Mr. Hazlewoods. Took the buggy after

dinner & carried them by Mr Flemings store where we called a few moments & then we

went home. Passed the day pleasantly tho unprofitably. Heard of the iniqutous pro-

ceedings of Mr J Bennets wife. Weather cold & cloudy as it has been several days.

Jan 4th 1852 Went to the chapel at Asberry to preaching. Arrive a few

minutes before close of service. Went as usual in the barouche with Carrie & Susan.

Spent the day very pleasantly though I fear it will be recorded in the annals of

eternity as a day lost. If I don't leave the society of these Lovely young ladies

Spring 1990 7

I shall loose the last vestige of a heart--
Jan 5th 1852 Went to Murfreesboro in the barouche with Carrie & Susie.

Had a bad cold & felt very unwell in the morning but soon forgot it after starting.
Carried the young ladies to Mrs Elliotts & called for them in the evening. Snowed

Jan 6th 1852 Went to Mr Pope's to make arrangement about going to Nash-
ville & setting up our business. Found him at Jackson Smiths. He promised to go to
Nashville on Thursday but I fear he will disappoint me. Several Ladies at Jacksons
Miss Ellen Buckhanan & two Miss Williams. Very pleasant girls all of them. snowy

Jan 7th 1852 Talked with the girls went to the store went to John Popes
Jan 8th Mr. Pope having disappointed me about going to Nashville I staid
at home most of the day & then went to his house. He took up his old note of $702
& gave me two in its place payable in bank & requested me to present them to Lucket
Davis for endorsement. Was to have been received into the Masonic Fraternity but

the weather being bad & my health worse & if I must say it my Company so good that I

declined going. Snowed blowed rained etc all day.
Jan 9th 1852 Went to Nashville though before going went to Luckett Davis'

& presented the notes that Mr Pope gave me for his signature which he gave without
any hesitation. Went to N on the cars [railroad] in the morning & returned in the
evening. I wonder if any body but myself suspected the cause of my haste. Hope
they did not but fear greatly that they did. That girl or these girls will be the
ruin of me yet I fear. Yet I must acknowledge their influence has had a very salu-
tory effect. I am a better man while with them than when I am with any body else.
Passion seems to slumber & the better feelings of my nature are awakened & brought
into exercise. Weather warm & cloudy--

Jan 10th Stayed at home in the forenoon & assisted Major Tucker & C.L.
Davis in their settlement. Went to Jefferson in the evening & traded J. McDowels
note for a horse? with Mr Waller. After supper assisted still farther in the settle-
ment as in the morning. Snowy cold & rainy

Jan 11th 1852 Went to preaching at the academy with C & S as usual. Felt

very low spirited in view of my coming separation. Found but 8 or 10 at church.

Jan 12th 1852 Went to J Popes in the morning & then to Flemings to com-

mence my life of servitude. I would confide to my only confident my feelings upon
leaving my home but they are past description. But if my feelings upon leaving home
were past description what were they when about to part with two friends the only
two female friends I have. I did not weep but there was a choking sensation about
the region of the throat that almost deprived me of the power of speech. I wonder if
I am in Love. If I am not I do not know what kind of a sensation it is that draws me
almost irresistably into the company of that girl or those girls for I hardly know
which I love the best. I love them as friends thats' certain. Well they say that
"absence conquers love" so I'll test the matter for a week at any a rate. cold/clear

Jan 17th 1852 From Monday 12 to Saturday 17th I have been engaged in the
store with nothing hapening of peculiar interest. Today the Legislature of the state
that body of wisdom the Savans of Tenn took a pleasure trip in the cars to the end
of the road. Found things more pleasant at Mr Flemings than I anticipated. Mrs F
is a very pleasant lively lady with the bump of don't-care-a-tiveness largely devel-
oped. Mr F is a perfect tyrant in his disposition but still he governs himself very

well & has treated me as well as I could wish. Mr Davis went away after supper to-
night very much to my satisfaction. A more conceited arrogant ignorant & ill maner-

ed1y young man it has seldom been my lot to associate with. With just sense enough

to raise him above the idiot he has an immoderate deg~ee of self esteem & impudence

to match. However I have to endure his company a burthen placed upon me I have no
doubt for some wise purpose probably to teach me lessens of forbearance towards in-
feriors for such cannot but esteem him altho my organ of self esteem according to
phrenology is not largely developed. Mr. Champ is in almost everything the reverse

of the one above mentioned. With a naturally good tho uncultivated intellect he has
great modesty a quiet orderly deportment & a natural inclination to please. I be-
lieve him to be honorable & highminded doing right for the sake of right. A greater
contrast I have seldom seen between two young men-- I had like to have forgotten to
tell my good friend that I was admitted into the lights or a portion of them of
masonry. It is an institution which rightly carried out must improve the mind &
heart-- The weather has been very fine today the first in several.

Arose about sunrise but got ready for breakfast before the bell rang. It
rained quite hard but my anxiety to see my fair cousins (as I have permission to
call them) was such that I concluded to go notwithstanding the inclemency of the
weather. I found them both at home comfortably seated around a cheerful fire. Mr
Hazlewood & Margaret were there also. The day passed very pleasantly altho I was
guilty of becoming a little offended at a remark made by Maj Tucker. I still think
it was a very unthoughted & foolish remark to make under the circumstances but still
I ought not to have allowed myself to become irritated by it. I was surprised at
some remarks made by Mr Hazlewood evincing a great disregard for the sabbath & for
the institutions of religion. But still I could hardly regret it inasmuch as it
gave me an opportunity of witnessing with what boldness yet modesty Cousin Sue ad-

vocated a strict adherence & obedience to not only the letter but the spirit of the

Gospel. She openly avowed her belief of the necessity of remembering the Sabbath
day to keep it holy that it was wrong to do or cause to be done anything that could
be done on any other day to indulge in any kind of light reading or thoughtless con-
versation pleasure rides or any kind of amusement that would produce a train of un-
holy thought or cause others to sin or bring a reproach upon the cause of religion.
I was very much pleased also to see how heartily Carrie coinsided with her in her

views & opinions notwithstanding she makes no pretension to piety. It shows that
she is not insensible to the requirements of the Bible & that she is not so thought-
less as she often appears. Stayed till after supper & then rode home & to Mr Flem-
ings. Before leaving I made an engagement to return next Sunday morning. Carrie &

Sue requested me to go to Marshall with them but owing to my other engagement it was
impossible for me to comply unless they could induce Mr Fleming to consent to my ab-
sence. This they said they would attempt. Brought my horse that I traded for in
Saturday to Mr F.

Tuesday Jan 20th How weak & puerile are all human resolutions unless sup-
ported by that arm that is willing & able to help those who put their trust in them.

"0 how weak is mortal man how trifling how confined his scope of vision" He resol-
ves today in all the pride of conscious strength tomorrow finds his resolutions un-
performed. And what is worst of all the failure to perform his resolutions weakens
his mental power in all future time. Instead of growing in strength of character by

vowing to the Lord & performing his vows he becomes weak & imbecile by excessive in-

dulgence. And here the question arises. Ought we under these circumstances to form
resolutions that there is a probability of our failing to carry into effect. One

thing is certain we ought to weigh well the matter & view it in all its lights be-
fore forming a resolution & when we become convinced that it is our duty to adopt a
certain course of conduct then the resolution should be made & its performance in-
variably follow. I resolved to discontinue the use of all bie? words & vulgarity.

I have failed to carry out this resolution. But being convinced that it is a good
resolution I will double my diligence in the future. Mr F returned from N today.
The truth is if I had some one depending upon me for support some one into whose
willing ear I could pour the tale of love in return I could perform my daily duties
with much more cheerfulness. But I am conscious that I shall never be so situated.

So I will endeaver to amass sufficient to support me & prevent me from ever becoming

a tax upon others •••

FAYETTEVILLE OBSERVER, Lincoln Co TN, April 11, 1872, V. XIX #9 - A FAMOUS FAMILY from Memphis
Appeal, April 7, 1872. No one familiar with the political history of the U.S. for the past 40
years is ignorant of the personal history of George W. JONES who through an almost ordinary
lifetime represented the Lincoln District of Tennessee in the Congress of the U.S. and the Con-
federacy. The history of Mr. Jones' family, of whom there are five brothers and a sister is
remarkable. William D.C. Jones, the oldest brother, was born 13 Dec 1799 and resides in Bastrop
Co TX. Henry T. Jones, born 3 Apr 1801, resides in Shelby Co TN. Martin S. Jones, born 5 May
1802, resides in Marshall Co TN. George W. Jones, born 15 Mar 1806, resides in Lincoln Co TN.
Richard M. Jones, born 22 May 1807, resides in Greene Co MO. Mary J. Jones, wife of George
SMALL, born 16 Sep 1810, resides in Shelby Co TN.

The above five brothers and one sister were born in King & Queen Co VA and are the children of
James Jones, a native of said county, and Jane SLAUGHTER, his wife who died in King & Queen Co
on 1 Oct 1810 leaving surviving her the above named six children and one other daughter about
18 months old. She died about 2 years after her mother. There has been no other deaths among
this family of children now nearly 62 years ago. James Jones, the father, removed with his fam-
ily to Giles Co TN in the spring of 1816 where he died on 20 May 1820. The five sons and the
daughter separated in 1820 and met for the first time since that year on the 4th instant at the
residence of Judge Henry T. Jones, of the Shelby County Court, a few miles from this city. All
6 were in Memphis yesterday and had their photos taken at Y. DAYS Gallery on Main St. opposite
Odd Fellows Hall. The whole party as guests of Judge WALKER dined together at Madame VINCENTS,
the happiest convocation to meet in Memphis during the century.

26-2-1813 Petition of 0 WILLIAMS, Attorney for the heirs of Edwin HICKMAN, "who

time for filing and adjudicating. (No date) (1 page)

27-2-1813 Petition of Lewis DILLAHUNTY, Major in Majr Genl CARROLL's Division, TN

Militia in the service of the US ... "the war lately terminated has proven

that the present organization & discipline of the Militia of Tennessee is full of

imperfections ... " Dillahunty continues with recommendations to appoint Inspector

Generals, adopt DUANES Handbook for Infantry as the system of discipline & to re-

organize the militia companies. "'An army without discipline and subordination is

but a mob more dangerous to itself than to its enemy.'"

clearly indicates that 1815 is correct.] Sep 1815 (3 pages)

28-2-1813 Petition of Chloe HENDRY of Washington Co TN for a divorce from William

Hendry who removed to Greene Co "where he has taken another wife." Chloe

the prosecutor. John EDWARDS of Warren Co certified that in Sep 1813 he heard Samuel

Smith relate the above facts and that "it was his opinion that the said negro man

INDEX TO PROBATE RECORDS IN MEMPHIS/SHELBY COUNTY, TENNESSEE ARCHIVES

(Continued from Winter issue, Vol. 36, No.4)

The index to Probate Records in Memphis/Shelby County, Tennessee Archives includes the names of
Deceased, Administrators, Executors, Guardians, relatives, persons of the same surname, wit-

nesses to wills and persons or places of special interest. Some estates contain many more names,
such as lists of persons who purchased at a sale. These are not included in the index. The ID
(Identification) column indicates the relationship of that person to the deceased. Besides the

normal abbreviations, two additional ones were used: frmly = formerly and decd = alternate

spelling of deceased surname. See page 105, Vol. 36, No. 3 for photocopy service information.

BOOK REVIEWS

Lincoln Johnson and Bess C. Twaddle

UNITED STATES CENSUS OF 1850, DEKALB COUNTY TENNESSEE compiled by Jorene Washer Parsley. 1988.
Soft back, 8ixll. Indexed, 103 pp. Order from compiler, Rt. 5, Box 43, Smithville, TN 37166.
$21.50

There is an advantage to having a census which has been read by a resident of the county in
question, as is true in this case. Ms Parsley is familiar with the names in her area which
helps to interpret the old handwriting of the enumerator. Moreover, she has enlisted the aid
of fifteen friends, who have added helpful information to the usual record, such as "father of
Ebenezer who m. Charlott McGuire." A map of the civil districts in 1850 giving their names
and numbers is a very helpful addition.

THE JONESES OF KENTUCKY'S CALLOWAY AND MARSHALL COUNTIES, 1820-1910 by Henry Earl Jones. 1988.
Soft back, 8ixll. Indexed, 498 pp. Order from The Kentucky Joneses , Southern Mycology, Inc.,
P. O. Box 982, Fairhope, Alabama 36533. $18.45

Being a Jones, both of whose parents were Joneses, is reason enough to try to sort out the
lines; but when 93 of 130 Jones families are concentrated in one area, the author felt compel-
led to identify every possible individual. Computer technology made it possible for him to
accumulate and manipulate a large data base for correlations between person, place, time etc.
The author says that this impressive volume is "by no means an exhaustive study of the Joneses
of Calloway and Marshall counties. It is a beginning!" To use this large computer-generated
volume, one should begin with the index, which provides each person with a record identifica-
tion number, indicating that person's paternal line. Maps of the Middle Mississippi Valley
(1793-1819) and the Purchase Area (1818-1886) provide valuable sources for all persons re-
searching in western Kentucky.

MACON COUNTY, TENNESSEE CEMETERY BOOK - VOLUME II compiled by members of the Macon County His-
torical Society. 1989. Hard back, 8ixll. Indexed, 531 pp. Order from the Society, % Kay
Crowder, Treas., Rt. 3, Maple Terrace, Lafayette, TN 37083. $53.00

This volume contains information from 280 cemeteries. It includes listings from the remaining
Macon County cemeteries not published in Volume I, plus selected ones in surrounding counties.
There are approximately 12,000 names in the full-name index. Separate sections give additions
and corrections for Volume I and valuable information gleaned from research of mortuary re-
cords. A few errors in the index may be corrected by looking on the preceding or succeeding
page.

INTERNATIONAL VITAL RECORDS HANDBOOK compiled by Thomas Jay Kemp. 1990. Soft back, 8ixll.
Alphabetically arranged, 355 pp. Order from the Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1001 N.
Cal vert St,., Baltimore, MD 21202. $24.95

Genealogists always need information on where to write for birth, marriage and death records.
This book not only tells where to write, but provides facsimilies of each necessary form, and
offers helpful advice and information, such as: "No personal checks are accepted"; " ... you may
call and charge your certificates to Visa or Master Card." "The Maryland State Archives has
restrictions on birth records for 100 years and death records for 20 years •.. " Divided into
three parts, the book covers sixty countries and territories. The section on North America
covers the U.S. States, Territories, Canada, and English-speaking Caribbean. The other two
sections cover the British Isles and Europe.

1870 UNITED STATES CENSUS OF PUTNAM COUNTY, TENNESSEE. 1989. Indexed, 164 pp. $25.00
1880 UNITED STATES CENSUS OF PUTNAM COUNTY, TENNESSEE. 1989. Indexed, 210 pp. $30.00
Transcribed and compiled by Norman T. and G. Kay McGee. Soft back, 8ixll. Order from Lilac
Hill Publications, G. Kay McGee, 6201 Patton Rd., Arrington, TN 37014.

Each census schedule contains an introductory guide to abbreviations of occupation, column
headings, states and countries. There is also a guide to miscellaneous microfilm data and a
plat defining the civil districts. The 1870 list has 8,698 individuals, and was later used as
an aid to correct information in the 1880 census, whose film-quality was variable. Both covers
feature an attractive illustration of the Buffalo Valley Post Office; the 1880 census includes
one of the Bird S. Jones Cemetery & U. S. Jones Family Home, both by Ernest L. Jackson.
