Louis Cashdollar Blackwell,
pictured above on 31 October, Halloween, 2009. We thank a
gracious God for the birth on November 20, 2009, of Parker Louis Cashdollar
Blackwell's baby brother:
WYATT EWING Cashdollar Blackwell. Baby Wyatt
descends from WYATT folks--we
know that way way back in Mocksville, Davie County, North
Carolina, occurred intermarriages between Joyce Cope Huie's (my mother's) Cope
and Wyatt folks; and Cope and Banks folks. Little WYATT's "Ewing" comes
from his mother's grandfather Howard EWING Huie, 1907-1971, my father and the
father of Sophie Joyce Huie Cashdollar, little Wyatt's maternal grandmother.
---Jennifer Jones Kinnard and her late sister Mary Llew Jones McGuire, as well
as Diane Wyatt and Diane's sister Sarah Blanche WYATT Bundy, descend also from
Wyatt-COPE folks (as well as from the marriage of Sarah "Sallie" COPE to Ransom
Rivers BANKS). Well, the point is made: Baby WYATT Ewing Cashdollar
Blackwell got himself FOUR (4) family names, and that's special for him, I hope.
This webpage aims to preserve the genealogy and correspondence (from 1829) of the following families, and of many more:
Immigrants circa 1730 Alexander McCorkle, 1722-1800, & wife "Nancy" Agnes Montgomery McCorkle, d. 1789. Although parentage is as yet unproven, Alexander was probably the son of Scots-Northern Irish immigrant James McCorkle who with his wife Jane (??maiden name??) McCorkle ventured into the American colonies with son Alexander McCorkle, 1722-1800. We know that either Alexander McCorkle, 1722-1800, or Alexander's father (James? McCorkle) had a sister who became Mrs. ?first name unknown??? McCorkle Sloan (This sister was the mother of Elizabeth Sloan Morrison alias Mrs. Andrew Morrison, the Andrew Morrison who died after 1815 in Middle Tennessee). Source: an old letter from Elmira Sloan McCorkle Roach (a daughter of Margaret Morrison McCorkle, 1770-1848, Margaret being daughter-in-law of Alexander McCorkle, 1722-1800). The other candidates besides James for being father of the 1722-1800 Alexander McCorkle are Samuel McCorkle and William McCorkle. Alexander McCorkle, 1722-1800, did name a son each Samuel and William, perhaps not after his father but after his uncles; I do not know. Assuming arguendo that James McCorkle begot Alexander McCorkle (1722-1800), and I'm far from certain, then Alexander McCorkle (1722-1800) was not as some have written a brother to Revolutionary War major in the North Carolina line Francis McCorkle; he was, rather, a 1st cousin to Francis. Francis McCorkle married a Brandon woman and Alexander McCorkle (1722-1800) had a second wife named Rebecca (McNee?) Brandon. Francis & Alexander (1722-1800) would have been what southerners call "own" cousins. (Parenthetically, record of a James McCorkle exists--is he in fact "ours?"--in the area of Mecklenburg County, NC, around today's Charlotte, also the locale in the mid-1750s of my Huie ancestors.)
Discussed on this web site, also, are the ff. people, and more:
'Nancy" Agnes McCorkle's MONTGOMERY ascendants: John Montgomery & Martha FINLEY (Montgomery).
William Morrison (1704-1771) (son of JAMES MORRISON) & William Morrison's wife Margaret (maiden name unknown) Morrison, were the paternal grandparents, by their son ANDREW MORRISON who married Elizabeth SLOAN, of:
granddaughter (1) Margaret Morrison McCorkle alias Mrs. Robert McCorkle, 1770-1848, buried in the McCorkle Cemetery some 5 miles east of Newbern, in Dyer County, Tennessee. William & Margaret Morrison's other grandchildren included, through their son ANDREW MORRISON & his wife ELIZABETH SLOAN (Morrison), not in proper birth order:
grandson (2)William Hays Morrison, 1767-1837 (buried McCorkle Cemetery, Dyer Co., Tennessee, right next to his sister Margaret McCorkle). This William Hays Morrison m. Mary Haynes (who predeceased him and is buried easterly in Bedford Co., Tenn., part of which county was carved out as Coffee County, Tennessee); and
grandson (3)Andrew Sloan Morrison who on 11 March 1801 married Mary Haynes' sister Sarah Haynes, born Dec. 31, 1780.
A preacher, presumably Presbyterian, Andrew Sloan Morrison wandered into Tennessee on his journeys and appears as owning property in several places, including the Chilhowee Mountains. His sister Margaret Morrison McCorkle wrote daughter Elmira Sloan McCorkle (Roache) in 1838 that she --Margaret--thought her brother ANDREW was probably in Virginia "attending to an old lawsuit there." Andrew Sloan(e) Morrison may have died a resident in Indiana, but as to his meanderings I must defer to his descendant, today's Jean Morrison of Cincinnati; and
grandson (4)George Morrison, 1771-1854 who remained behind in Iredell Co., NC, and fathered, inter alia, George Milton Morrison, who had several children; and
granddaughter (5) Elizabeth Morrison Lowrie of Iredell Co., NC; and
granddaughter (6) Rachel Morrison Brown alias Mrs. Robert Brown(e) who d. 1 July 1835 (probably, according to an old letter from Rachel's sister Margaret Morrison McCorkle to daughter Elmira Sloan McCorkle Roache) and whose --Rachel Morrison Brown's--only daughter (I think) Matilda McKee Browne m. her Morrison 1st cousin (Matilda m. a descendant of her uncle William Hays Morrison, 1767-1837: either Joseph Pinckney Morrison or a son of J P M); and
granddaughter (7) Mary Morrison (Mrs. John Morrison) who m. a son of her uncle Patrick Morrison; and
granddaughter (8) Rebecca Morrison who probably never married (for her last name remained Morrison; but note that her sister Rebecca Morrison married a first cousin, John MORRISON), and Rebecca died between 1851 (mentioned in 1851 letter as being alive) and 1860 (by 1860 she was no longer present in Coffee County, Tennessee, census although her sister Mary was), dying near Hillsboro in Coffee County, Tennessee.
Two children above are missing, if we can believe Elmira Sloan McCorkle Roache's letter to her nephew, Dr. James Scott McCORKLE of Newbern, Tennessee, in which Elmira wrote that her Grandfather Morrison had raised ten (10) children.
It is a good thing for us today that the above George Morrison, 1771-1854, did remain behind in Rowan-Iredell County, North Carolina, because a Dr. Langenaur ?? or Langenhauer? ? (I think that's who did it) dutifully recorded what he could of the relatives of George Morrison and placed this information for the public to use, in the Statesville public library, genealogy room.

The hyperlink immediately above picks up:
Generation I. James Morrison, born circa 1675 in Scotland. Wife: MARY---;
Generation II. William Morrison, 1704-1771, who called himself the "first inhabitor" of Loray community near Statesville, in what is now Iredell County, North Carolina. [Iredell Co. was carved from ROWAN County in 1788.] This William Morrison's Wife: MARGARET ____-- ;
III. Patrick Morrison, a brother to "my" Andrew Morrison. That is, this Patrick Morrison was brother to the Andrew Morrison who married Elizabeth Sloan (Morrison). This PATRICK MORRISON was therefore an uncle to Margaret Morrison McCorkle (Mrs. Robert McCorkle), 1770-1848. The life of Margaret MORRISON McCorkle began in the Iredell County (carved from Rowan in 1788) part of ROWAN COUNTY, North Carolina, and ended at what she called VERDANT PLAIN, now Churchton community in eastern Dyer County, Tennessee, just west of the Gibson County line. I think her father, the Andrew Morrison who married Elizabeth SLOAN(e) (Morrison), died in 1815 in Bedford County, Tennessee, probably in the part that was to be carved out as COFFEE COUNTY.

James Huie (flourished 1800) & son Benjamin Huie, born c.1798 in Cabarrus County, NC - d. 1879 in Newbern, Tennessee, in the home of his son Joseph G. Huie--James Huie & son Benjamin Huie each known to have been in Cabarrus then Rowan-Iredell Counties, NC. I hope "my" James Huie, father of Benjamin Huie, was not the slave-trader in the area of Iredell County circa 1800, but I'm afraid he was, for I've wondered how "my" Benjamin Huie got the money to come to West Tennessee and buy up land in Dyer and Gibson Counties. ???

Revolutionary War veteran Jacob Thomas & wife Margaret Brevard (Thomas) of Rowan/Iredell County, NC, whose son William Thomas married Elizabeth Purviance. Quaere: Was Margaret BREVARD (Thomas) a daughter of ZEBULON BREVARD, as some have written in handwritten and/or typed files placed in the Statesville Public Library in Iredell County, NC, in the genealogical room in Iredell County, North Carolina? I do not know who the parents of Margaret Brevard (Mrs. Jacob Thomas) were, but if she was (subjunctive mood: were) a daughter to Zebulon Brevard & Ann Templeton, that makes her a TEMPLETON descendant of a passenger on the Mayflower. From Winchester, Tennessee, Sir John Templeton of the Templeton Growth Investment Fund went on to endow Templeton College at Oxford University in England. Good grief, BREVARD relatives!!! He graduated from Winchester high school in 1930.

But John Templeton has made the real goal of his life the elaboration of a new concept of spiritual progress. While recognizing and appreciating the great religious insights of the past, he envisions a new era of spiritual discovery that may rival the astounding physical discoveries of the past few centuries brought to us through science. "Sir John Templeton drove a small red rental car out of the long sweeping drive of the big brick house at 600 South High Street in Winchester,Tennessee, and proceeded down High Street. It was the beginning of two days of travel down memory lane—to recount for me some of his experiences growing up in a small town in middle Tennessee. The big brick house had been built by John’s father for his parents, Dr. John Wiley Templeton of Beech Grove, Tennessee, and Susan Jones Templeton, formerly of Canton, Mississippi. Dr.Templeton had received one year of medical training in Nashville, and had been a regimental surgeon in the Confederate Army during the Civil War. After the war he practiced general medicine for some forty years in Wartrace, Tennessee, and then retired to live in Winchester. His mother VELLA's family. Her father, Robert Clinton Handly, had been a businessman in Winchester, with a busy grain mill on Boiling Fork Creek. The Handlys were also prominent politically. John’s maternal grandmother,Elizabeth Marks, was the sister of Colonel Albert Marks, governor of Tennessee. John can even boast of a Revolutionary War-hero ancestor, Virginia-born Samuel Handly, whose parents emigrated from northern Ireland in 1740.
Elizabeth Purviance (Mrs. William THOMAS) was a daughter of "colonel" John Purviance of the North Carolina line in the Revolutionary War & of John Purviance's wife, Mary JANE WASSON (Purviance). John Purviance Snr was, I think, a lieutenant in the NC line, although his brother Captain James Purviance ranked higher. ] [John Purviance and Mary Jane Wasson Purviance had a son also named John Purviance. In 1792 this son John Purviance was scalped by hostile Indians near today's GALLATIN in Sumner County, Tennessee, leaving a widow who had watched the murder. John Purviance Jnr's widow was "Mattie" Martha King Purviance. Mattie King (Mrs. John Jnr. Purviance)(then Mrs. William McCorkle) died all too soon, before 1800, after re-marrying and becoming Mrs. William McCorkle, becoming therefore daughter-in-law to immigrant Alexander McCorkle, 1722-1800, & wife "Nancy" Agness Montgomery McCorkle. SAMUEL KING had signed, as A.D. 1800 witness back in Rowan-Iredell County, NC, the will of Mattie King (McCorkle's) new father-in-law Alexander McCorkle, 1722-1800. A King Family Genealogy is on the Internet from the Cumberland Presbyterian organization which includes these King folk.
Two of the THOMAS daughters of Jacob Thomas & Margaret Brevard (Thomas) married brothers named SHERRILL. Elizabeth Thomas m. Samuel Wilson Sherrill (Elizabeth Thomas Sherrill). And Elizabeth's younger sister Anne alias Annie Thomas m. Abel Sherrill (Anne Thomas Sherrill). The youngest from the union of Jacob Thomas & Margaret Brevard were JACOB THOMAS, Jr.; and ANNE THOMAS SHERRILL. My ancestor, WILLIAM THOMAS who m. ELIZABETH PURVIANCE, was one of the children of Jacob & Margaret BREVARD THOMAS, also. (Click here for BREVARD, THOMAS, and SHERRILL Families of the piedmont of North Carolina.) --Ora Huie and Katie Pearl Fox were McCorkle sisters: my Aunt Ora McCorkle Huie and Aunt Katie Pearl McCorkle Fox's records list an Ann Thomas (Sherrill) but fail positively to identify Anne Thomas SHERRILL as a child of Jacob & Margaret Brevard Thomas (which Anne was). Our old McCorkle/Huie genealogical records kept in Dyer Co., West Tennessee, contain Sherrill records, but in the midst of them my Aunt Katie Pearl McCorkle (Fox) has interlineated: "I don't understand all of this."

Many allied lines are considered in this web site, e.g., the Scott family of James Scott, 1777-1853, and Sarah Dickey (Scott), 1777-1838, Sarah Dickey Scott being a daughter of John Dickey & Sarah Robinson Dickey, & James & Sarah Dickey Scott having lived at one time in York District, South Carolina. --Their descendant Glenn Smith Scott of Yorkville, Tennessee (Gibson Co.) died in the spring of 2009, leaving behind children and his brother Wm. Aaron Scott. --Annie Maude Scott (Mrs. Brown) died in Henderson, Tennessee, in the year 2009; born in West Tennessee, Annie Maude married a man from Guntown, Mississippi, then moved to Henderson to be near the family of her brother's widow, Yvonne Scott (Mrs. THOMAS Elihu Scott).
Another example of allied lines is the Archibald Wasson -Elizabeth Woods Wasson family.
Stuart Hoyle Purvines's big red PURVIANCE / PURVAIANCE book of the year 1984, to which I provided much information about the Tennessee descendants of Revolutionary War "colonel" John Purviance (serving as soldier in the North Carolina line during the war) and wife Mary JANE Wasson (Purviance), of Rowan Co., NC, says the "colonel" 's parents, whose people were originally Huguenots at Royan near La Rochelle, west coast of France, had fled up to Castlefinn in Northern Ireland to escape the Roman Catholic persecution. Also, someone has placed on www.ancestry.com that James MORRISON came from Castle Finn. This JAMES MORRISON was father of our WILLIAM MORRISON, who called himself the "first inhabitor" of the Loray community area near Statesville, Rowan County (later, in 1788, IREDELL county), North Carolina. This Castlefinn business--of the immigrant John Purvaiance / Purviance/ who m. McKnight, and of immigrant James Morrison: I do not know anything about. Nevertheless, here's the WIKIPEDIA information on Castlefin alias Castlefinn of County Donegal in the northwestern-most part of Ireland. County Donegal is yet a part of EIRE, the REPUBLIC of Ireland; County Donegal is not a constituent part of the Northern Ireland that is a part of the United Kingdom:
"Castlefin (Irish:
Caisleán na Finne),
(sometimes spelt Castlefinn)
is a market town in the Finn Valley of
County Donegal,
Ireland, an
Ulster
county within the Republic of Ireland.
The town has a population of 810 (2006) and is located between
Ballybofey and
Lifford. The
River Finn
flows by the town. The town is located in along the main
N15 national primary
road, which runs from
Bundoran to
Lifford. The town lies 6
miles from
Lifford and 8
miles from the twin towns of
Ballybofey /Stranorlar.
It has close links to the twin towns of
Ballybofey/
Stranorlar,
Letterkenny and
has strong links with West Tyrone
in
Northern Ireland,
especially with the towns of
Strabane
and
Castlederg."
... ... ... "Castlefinn is in the parish
of Donaghmore,
barony of
Raphoe,
4.5 miles from
Lifford. Its name translates from the
castle on the banks of the river finn, the stones from the castle were used in
the construction of the bridge that still stands today, and at the close of
Elizabeth I’s reign it
belonged to Sir Neill Garbh O’Donnell."


--The above is from the Wikipedia entry, at <http:www.wikipedia.org>. Look to the central right boundary of County Donegal to see Castlefinn.
John Purviance m. Mary Jane Wasson, my ancestors. This John was son of another John Purviance (who m. McKnight). One of John & Jane Wasson Purviance's children was Elizabeth Purviance alias Mrs. William Thomas, and another child was church "elder" David Purviance, who aided in starting the Disciples of Christ/ Church of Christ at Cane Ridge, Kentucky. Elizabeth Purviance m. William Thomas and produced, inter alia: (1) Sarah Purviance Thomas who m. Eleazor Woods and (2) Jane Maxwell Thomas who m. Edwin Alexander McCorkle. William Thomas died in 1833 very soon after removing westerly to Dyer County, and his widow applied for a Revolutionary War widow's pension from Dyer County, with the help, the application states, of her son-in-law Edwin Alexander McCorkle, 1799-1853, who was a Justice of the Peace for Dyer County.
The John Purviance who married Mary Jane Wasson was in 1775 a member of the Rowan County, NC, Committee for Safety, meaning that he was a revolutionary. Yet, he would not leave his Presbyterianism and join the new "restoration movement" of Barton W. Stone and his own son, "elder" David Purviance, the latter of whom is considered a co-founder of the Christian Church / Church of Christ in that he spread the movement in Kentucky and, partially because of opposition to slavery, northward to Ohio (settling in "New" Paris, Preble County, Ohio). This John Purviance did, however, join the new CUMBERLAND Presbyterian movement begun in 1810 in Middle Tennessee. --So, the reader may wonder, was this "colonel" John Purviance really a revolutionary; or did he like many Scots-Irish in the American colonies merely jump on a chance (the revolutionary movement) to get back at the British who had long discriminated against Presbyterianism in favored of an established anglican church?
It's not clear to me why he--"our" "Revolutionary War colonel" John Purviance--is of 1811 record in Giles County, Tennessee, which is down on the southern border of Tennessee, a border shared with Alabama, Giles County's main city today being Pulaski, Tennessee. "Colonel" John Purviance deeded 450 acres of land to Samuel Woods, grantee, who by then was up in New Paris, Preble County, Ohio, near "elder" David Purviance, son of John & Mary JANE Wasson Purviance. I suppose "colonel" John Purviance had received this acreage as remuneration for his Revolutionary War efforts, but this is speculation. -- New Paris, Preble County, Ohio, was the locale to which John & Mary Jane Wasson Purviance 's son "church elder" David Purviance had removed, from, first, Rowan Co., NC; to, second, Sumner County, Tennessee, in or near Old Shiloh Presbyterian Church just outside today's Gallatin; to, third, near Paris, Bourbon County, Kentucky (because John & Mary Jane Wasson Purviance's son named John Purviance Jr. had been scalped in 1792 in Sumner County, Tennessee); to, fourth, New Paris, in Preble County, Ohio.) Please see Deed Book A, page 205, Giles County, Tennessee, Deed Books, this deed having been registered on 25 Sep 1811. The 450 acres lay on a tributary of the Elk River called Indian Creek. Acting as witnesses to grantor John Purviance's deed were brothers of the grantee: William Woods and David Woods.
Click below for an excerpt from Levi Purviance's biography of his father, "elder" David Purviance, describing his--Levi's--grandfather, Revolutionary War soldier "colonel" John Purviance who married Mary JANE Wasson (Purviance). This John might have been born at Castle Finn, Northern Ireland, as his father (another John Purviance) had been; but probably was born in Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania. Was "colonel" John Purviance who m. JANE WASSON (Purviance) an emigrant from Northern Ireland? The de PURVAIANCE family in France had become Huguenots seeking refuge in the west coast city of La Rochelle, France, after Louis XIV stupidly revoked the toleration implied by the Edict of NANTES; and from Royan / La Rochelle, the Purviances had sailed seeking freedom in Scotland and Northern Ireland. In France, a name using "de (plus a locale)" implies nobility; so I suppose at some point Jacques de Purvaiance, or some kinsman, had been "made" noble in return for some favor bestowed. That fits, as "Purvaiance" means "purveyor" or "purveyance."

The above-mentioned families mostly came from Pennsylvania down the Great Wagon Road of the 18th century to Rowan County, North Carolina; then westerly to Tennessee. Tennessee attained statehood in 1796 (take that, you Johnny-come-lately Texans who appropriated not only "UT" but also our mascot orange color); the western-most lands of Tenn. were not opened for white settlement until decades later.

Alexander McCorkle Genealogy (1722-1800) Introduction to the people who engaged in the McCorkle Correspondence included here that begins with Mrs. Robert McCorkle, 1770-1846, born Margaret Morrison of Rowan County, NC. Margaret Morrison's paternal grandfather, William Morrison, 1704-1771, referred to himself as the first white "inhabitor" of the Third Creek area, now Loray community near Statesville, Iredell County, North Carolina. The grandfather Wm. Morrison, 1704-1771, attended parleys with the Indians and was active (with his son and/or brother Andrew Morrison) at Fort Dobbs during the era of the French & Indian Wars. Fort Dobbs lies just outside Statesville, Iredell County, North Carolina.

Nota Bene. I think I erroneously placed the death date as 1872 for "Jimps" James Scott (born 1810). Jimps Scott appears in the 1880 census so probably died circa 1882, but I'm no longer sure about any date of his death. I erroneously thought the little, almost-gone stone (shown above, listing somebody's date of birth as 1810) that I found in the old Yorkville Cumberland Presbyterian Cemetery showed the date of death of "our" James "Jimps" Scott. I must have been wrong. But at least I did get a marker erected to honor these people, however ridded with inaccuracies it is.Click below for:

Hiram
McCorkle--just a teaser from one of HRA McCorkle's
Civil War journalsUpdate: Now,
his journals have been microfilmed by the Tennessee State Archives in
Nashville. They are extremely hard to read, unfortunately. Hiram
rode with Nathan Bedford Forrest. -- Somewhere in one of his journals he writes
that his brother Finis Alexander McCorkle has ridden off to find "Old Bedford."
When Hiram cannot or does not write in his own journals, his brother John Edwin
McCorkle's handwriting often makes entries.
The true addict who enjoys footnotes (like me) should click below for:

John Edwin McCorkle, 1839-1924. Born in prime years for becoming Civil War cannon fodder, just after receipt of a baccalaureate from the soon-defunct Bluff Springs Academy. (The situs of the Bluff Springs Academy? I think it was in Milan or nearby McLemoresville, Gibson County, West Tennessee.)
--His first wife was "Tennie" Scott (Tennessee Alice Scott, born to William Scott of Hardeman County (ultimately, although he was a sojourner in Gibson/Dyer County); William Scott being a son of JAMES SCOTT, 1777-1853, & wife Sarah DICKEY Scott, 1777-1853. Wm's siblings: Tirzah Scott McCorkle of Dyer Co, Lemuel Locke Scott of Dyer-Gibson Co., James "Jimps" Scott of Gibson-Dyer Co., John Dickey/Dickie Scott ofGibson/Dyer then Hardeman Co.
John Edwin McCorkle's 2nd wife Mary Elizabeth Cotton (McCorkle), below. She is my father Ewing Huie 's maternal grandmother, that is, Mary Elizabeth Cotton McCorkle was mother to, inter alia, Sophie King McCorkle (Huie). She died in 1929. :

above: Mary Elizabeth Cotton (Mrs. John Edwin McCorkle, his second wife, after "Tennie" Tennessee Alice Edwards Scott McCorkle, 1850-1879). "Mollie" Mary was born in Nelson Co., Kentucky (in Botland near Bardstown) to John Cotton (died 1852, Botland, Nelson Co., KY) & Juliet TONG Cotton (Juliet was interred while visiting her daughter in Tennessee in the McCorkle Cemetery, Dyer Co., Tenn.).
Finis A. McCorkle: ______________________________
[Under construction--to be added later-]twin to "Latina" or "Tina" Margaret Latina McCorkle (Mrs. John T. Gregory)
First wife: "Sallie Jo" Sarah Josephine JACKSON (McCorkle), who is interred at Mt. , just north of Newbern, Tennessee, in contiguous OBION County. We do not know whether Finis himself is buried there with his first wife, or in the McCorkle Cemetery in Dyer County (west of Yorkville and east of Newbern)
Second wife: "Mag" Margaret HART, about whom I've heard nothing good. Finis's son GILLUM McCorkle around the turn of the century committed suicide in his bed, which he shared with brother HOMER McCorkle. In 1984 I telephoned Finis's last surviving child, centenarian Maida McCorkle Montgomery, then living in California, whose mind sounded lucid. Maida or MADA told me, no, she had no memory of the burial place of her father FINIS McCORKLE. Maida was Mrs. Howell Montgomery and she had one daughter Margaret Montgomery, a librarian who died after 1984 without issue, in California.

Briefly with us in elementary school was Barbara Chandler. Beginning first grade with us but soon moving away were a girl named Grace ___ and a boy named Manuel ?Thompson? ______.
Our elementary school teachers were:
1st grade: Miss Annette Jackson & Mrs. Cooper
2nd grade: Mrs. Willis Bennett of Trenton, mother of a son also named Willis Bennett
3rd grade: Mrs. Katie Bell Meadows, mother of Jimmy Meadows & Robert Meadows
4th grade: Mrs. Mary Llewellyn Wyatt Jones, mother of Mary Llew Jones & Jennifer Wilson Jones Kinnard
5th grade: Mrs. Robyn Jones Gregory, mother of Anna Lois Gregory Kuykendall and Max Gregory--Memory fails, but I think we had two grades in one classroom that year. I do remember listening to and learning from the older grade's lessons, so I know that one-room schoolhouses had a great deal of merit, making all the modern grab for monies for "good schools" mostly hogwash propagated by misguided enthusiasts. It's the HOMES that need the most help. It's home-training that society misses today, not fancy accoutrements for the schools. I'm an open-minded person who wants to help my neighbor succeed, and I'm happy to pay federal taxes to better the country, so I hope this doesn't make me sound like a member of the John Birch society.
6th grade: Mrs. Mary Headden Glidewell (Mrs. Jess Glidewell), mother of ________ of Lake County.

Just for fun: Who's kin to me in the Class of 1964:
Janie Erwin (Davidson)* is probably very distantly related to me way back in North Carolina, for one of the MORRISON relatives to my ancestor--I think it was an aunt of my ancestor, Margaret Morrison McCorkle, 1770-1848, who married an ERWIN in NC around 1750.
Roseanne Kuykendall (Spain) descends from "Tina" Margaret Latina McCorkle (Mrs. John T. Gregory) and I from Tina's brother John Edwin McCorkle, 1839-1824. Roseanne and I find much common ground in the McCorkle Cemetery about 5 miles west of Yorkville.
Ray Scott* descends from Margaret Permelia McCorkle (Mrs. Lemuel Locke Scott), 180?4?-1855, and I from her brother, Edwin Alexander McCorkle, 1799-1853. We share as ancestors: ROBERT McCorkle, 1764-1828, & his wife, Margaret Morrison (McCorkle), 1770-1848; and: James Scott, 1777-1853, & wife Sarah Dickey (Scott), 1777-1838, who arrived in the environs of Yorkville from YORK District, South Carolina. If I'm kin to Janie ERWIN through some ancient North Carolina marriage of a MORRISON woman to an ERWIN man, then so is classmate Ray Scott.
LaNita Hall (VanDyke) and I are double-kin. LaNita descends from Sarah Huie (Mrs. Wilson Hall, interred Center Church just over in Dyer County) and I from Sarah's brother, Benjamin Huie, 1798-1879. Also LaNita descends from "Clementine" Tirzah Scott (Trimble) and I from Clementine's sister "Sade" Sarah Scott (Huie, Mrs. Julius M. Huie), 1839-1893. That makes Claudia Hicks (Paschal) and LaNita Hall VanDyke SCOTT-KIN to not only each other and me but also to classmate Ray Scott: we all four descend from JAMES SCOTT, 1777-1853, originally of YORK DISTRICT, SC, & wife Sarah DICKEY Scott, 1777-1838, whose children were Tirzah Scott McCorkle, Lemuel Locke Scott, 1801-1866 (Ray Scott's ancestor, who m. Margaret Permelia McCORKLE), James "Jimps" Scott, born circa 1810 (LaNita, Claudia, and Marsha's ancestor), William Scott, and John Dickey/Dickie Scott.
Claudia Hicks Paschall, like LaNita, descends from "Clementine" Tirzah Scott (Trimble) and I from Clementine's sister "Sade" Sarah Scott (Huie, Mrs. Julius M. Huie), 1839-1893.
Jennifer Jones Kinnard's mother Llewellyn Wyatt Jones and my mother, Joyce Rebecca Cope Huie, were, as Miss Llewellyn used to say, "bad kin." One common ancestor was Uriah C. Hendricks (& wife Mary MacMahon) of Mocksville, Davie Co., NC--who married in 1833 in Clermont County, Ohio, before heading to the western district of Tennessee. Uriah C. Hendricks's daughter "Hattie" Harriet HENDRICKS (Wyatt) was mother to Dr. Finis Wyatt, father to Miss Llewellyn, and Uriah C. Hendricks's daughter "Siss" Narcissus Eliz. HENDRICKS (Cope) was mother to Ira M. Cope, father to Miss Joyce Huie (my mother was our high school English & Latin teacher). Ransom Rivers Banks m. Sarah "Sallie" Cope and produced Miss Llewellyn's grandmother, Mary Melvina Banks (Turner, wife of Dr. A.E. Turner of Nebo) (also mother of the wife of Dr. Finis Wyatt: Dr. Finis Wyatt's wife being Ora BLANCHE Turner Wyatt). Also, back in NC, William Wyatt m. a Cope sister to my Cope ancestor. Jen and I share as ancestor: FREDERICK COPE, whose father from the Rheinland of the Palatinate, now Germany, spelled his name "KOB" variously COP and KOP. I won't go on with this. --So, Jen and I are Hendricks, and Wyatt, and Cope, and Schweiβgute / anglicized to Swicegood/ kin.
Terry Allen Brown and Phyllis Ann Headden are kin to each other and to me through the HEADDEN family. We all three descend from "Mose" MOSES HEADDEN, born 1802 in Covington, Kentucky, and wife Elizabeth Boyette (Headden). Mose Headden's son Winfield SCOTT Headden is my mother Joyce Cope Huie's grandfather. Mose Headden's son ____ is the ancestor of Phyllis, whose father Maury HEADDEN --and Maury's sister Mary Headden Glidewell (yes, our 6th-grade teacher) --were born to Printus alias Print Headden, grandson of Mose Headden & Elizabeth Boyette Headden. Terry A. Brown descends from another son of Mose & Elizabeth Boyette Headden, whose name I think was Samuel, but I may have that wrong. --I think Elizabeth Boyette (Mrs. Mose Headden) descends from a HOPKINS man who came over on the Mayflower, but I have not taken the time to try to prove it. Much hoopla surrounds the Mayflower Descendants which I've never understood, unless it's not about those who were financially distressed and outright renegades fleeing justice, but is about the PURITANS who stood up for their religious beliefs and escaped to Leyden, Holland.

Elmira Sloan McCorkle Roache, who moved up north, became wealthy; while her siblings who remained down in Tennessee did not. The lives of the descendants of Elmira Sloan McCorkle Roach (who removed up north to Indiana with her husband), on the one hand; and, on the other hand, the bucolic siblings, sister Margaret Permelia McCorkle Scott (who died in late 1853, the same year as her brother Edwin), & brothers Edwin Alexander McCorkle (my father's great-grandfather who died in early 1853) & Jehiel Morrison McCorkle (who died in 1849), took dramatically different turns, as best I know.
The cosmopolites became wealthy, and the farmers scraped by. Even though the farmers may have become land-rich, they would nonetheless have been cash-poor, the fate of many white folks in the post-bellum South, while at the same time the black folks were abandoned by promisors of 40 acres and a mule and forced relentlessly back into near-slavery by twisted enforcement, or by outright non-enforcement of post-war laws that had been enacted with the intent of aiding them. Perhaps the whites' poverty paid but an inadequate installment on the longtime debt incurred by their ancestors' sin, and their sin, of fostering antebellum slavery. If ever an historic epoch showed the danger of good citizens' sitting idly by, afraid to speak out, it is the time after post-war Reconstruction when decent white folk allowed the Negro to be betrayed and pushed back into near-slavery and fear of being lynched. The election of 1876 ended de facto although not de jure the Civil War, when Tilden who had won the popular vote swapped his victory for getting an agreement to end Reconstruction occupation of the South. Rutherford B. Hayes became president, and the northern troops left the South.
Somewhere I've read that Elmira's husband, Dr. Stephen Roach, did not like the South in which he had been born (NC) before 1800, because of the institution of slavery, and determined to move northerly. There, mostly in Indiana, his children who survived became educated and wealthy, while as far as I know Margaret Permelia McCorkle Scott's and Edwin Alexander McCorkle's & Jehiel Morrison McCorkle's children possessed little access to formal education--although the Dyer County parents sent them off to school to Yorkville (5 miles) and a place called Bluff Springs Academy (in Gibson County, I think, near Milan? perhaps in McLemoresville?). We are certain that Edwin's son John Edwin McCorkle, 1839-1924, at least, received a baccalaureate, because I possess his B.A. diploma from Bluff Springs Academy; and we know John Edwin McCorkle's brother Finis Alexander McCorkle attended Bluff Springs Academy, but Finis's college education would have been interrupted by the Civil War, during which Finis rode with Nathan Bedford Forrest. --Generally, for the most part, the Tennessee farmers were a very long way removed from the Princeton College in which their Finley-Montgomery-McCorkle elders had been educated; and their fortunes declined after the Civil War and bitter Reconstruction, except for the few who were smart enough to head north, e.g., my great-uncle Errett Cotton McCorkle. John Edwin McCorkle's son, Errett Cotton McCorkle, 1887-1976, I've been told by my elders, was pushed by his mother Mary, née Cotton and a native Kentuckian, to go live at her sister Laura Cotton Hunter's alias Mrs. John Crittenden Hunter's home in Louisville and read law. And sure enough, Uncle Errett prospered as he moved on to St. Louis and then Chicago, as the personnel manager for Renard Linoleum & Rug Co. He lost his fortune twice during "panics" but twice regained it. But most of Margaret's and Edwin's children remained on the land in Dyer and Gibson Counties of West Tennessee. I've read in the old papers that uncle Hiram R. A. McCorkle made a good bit of money during and after the war by trading horses and generally being a good mercantilist, but Hiram was the exception, I think, of his generation in post-war West Tennessee. And times for the grandchildren of the Civil War fighters did not improve by much, if at all, for they might have been land-rich but were cash-poor. It really wasn't until the next generation (mine; I was born in 1946) that the Tennessee farmers' children were able to get the kind of educations available to Elmira's children in Indiana; correspondingly it is my generation of McCorkle descendants who have prospered in time. Of course, I am speaking above in sweeping generalities; exceptions to the rule, as always, existed.

Notes for JOSEPH HAYNES:
HUSBAND - Joseph (Christopher) HAYNES
August 10, 1994, From a letter by Charles R. Clemson, 554 State Street,
Lancaster, PA, 17603, to Barbara Hughes, Box
6049, Canyon Lake, CA
92380, dated 9 Nov. 1990. Re: Joseph Haynes NOT
Christopher Haynes. Theory
based on
research of Paulette Haynes, of Anderson, Indiana, that a
Haynes family
history was compiled by one Col. Milton Haynes
(1814-1867), in 1848 or 1850, mentioned Joseph Haynes, but also with the name
of Christopher. It is suggested that
someone later may have altered the
MS by lining out Joseph and writing in
Christopher on page one, thereby
creating the
misapprehension. The family history of Haynes, by Col.
Milton Haynes, is
located in the Tennessee State Archives, Nashville,
TN.
There is persuasive argument that Joseph is the proper first name.
But, the
letter does not mention if Christopher is the proper
middle name of our subject.

From Noris R. Haynes, Germantown, TN The family history
compiled by Bertha
Owen Brockman, 2110
Linden St., Pine Bluff, AR. indicates Joseph or
Christopher Haynes
Excerpt from: Roberson, Haynes, Darby, by Phillip I.
Roberson, pg171-234,
begins with the Record of the Haynes Family by
James D. Cook, dated 15 February 1943, Centersville,Tennessee. Christopher
was tall, spare made, six feet tall with blue
eyes. Christopher was a
dissenting Presbyterian, or non-conformist, then
called a Seceder. From the
1745 to 1760, he lived at
Harrisburg, PA, where he died and was buried.
He was a carpenter by trade.

Family History, by Milton Haynes, 1814-1867. It has appeared in several
collections almost verbatim.)

For safety--in fear of rootsweb freepages not keeping the following material on the Internet--I'm copying it wholesale here. I, Marsha Cope Huie, had absolutely nothing to do with compiling the following information:
“BEAUVERT”
Please click on image to right for more information. Beau in French means “beautiful”….vert in New French and verd in Old French means “green color.” The literal meaning of the Beauvert surname is thus the beauty of all green growth. The name implies a pastoral setting and not one of grimy, dirty Paris at the close of the Medieval Ages. Our family did not originate in Paris but migrated from the pastoral Languedoc Province in southern France. The Protestants originated in Gaul in South France. This was called Languedoc long before the Reformation began a century later. As residents of Languedoc, our family would have used the name Beauverd. They migrated northward to Lyons and along the Valley of the Loire to Nantes. The ancestors moved North to the capital Paris and eventually adapted the North French dialect, which changed the spelling to Beauvert. It is easy to see how attempts to Anglicize and simplify the name once the family came to Ireland would result in “Bevard,” which is thought to be the earliest spelling.
The Paris branch of the Beauvert family was composed of two brothers (one named Jacques) and two married sisters. Along with their husbands and children, they managed a factory in Paris. Other relatives owned the plant at Valenciennes; both factories were producers of linen and lace. The Paris plant was founded in the latter part of the 15th or the early 16th century and the Valenciennes factory around 1540. Soon after, the terrible religious wars began. The family, like many of the manufacturing and merchant classes, had become Huguenots (who followed the main, though not slavishly, teachings of John Calvin - some of the narrow-mindedness and cruelty of Calvin they could not condone).
The French Protestants (followers of Calvin) were called “Huguenots” a name which the Catholics held in derision. The chief of the Reform Movement were:
The popularity of the new thought in religion was not to the liking of the orthodox and some leaders; they wanted to put an end to this “heresy.” There followed many years of civil war. In 1563, the Huguenots were allowed freedom of worship, after a treaty known as the “Pacification of Amboise.” However, the arch-schemer, Queen Mother Catherine de Medici, gradually had all privileges withdrawn. The second Huguenot war began in 1567. Catherine, fearing that her twenty-one-old son was leaning toward the Huguenots, began a series of intrigues that culminated in one of the most disgraceful massacres in the history of mankind. The Huguenots were, for the larger portion, the better educated people of the day. Many Huguenots were business people and, being in trade, were ostracized by the Nobility, the Clergy and the Law (although many persons of these three classes were often indebted to the people in trade). Some Huguenots became alarmed and were wise enough to convert property and securities into cash, which they sent by messenger for deposit in English counting houses. The Beauverts either could not believe that affairs would become completely out of hand or were not far-sighted enough to see it coming and went about their business until it was too late.
Generation America JOHN BREVARD was b. about 1675 to 1680 in France, and d. about. 1735 in Somerset, Md
Notes for JOHN BREVARD: The Brevards (From Margaret Gardner-Cannefax’s: Cannefax-Gardner and Related Lines pg 97. pub.1972) The name "Brevard" is of Huguenot origin. They went from France to northern Ireland, and came to America prior to 1711, and settled in Maryland. In 1726 John Brevard from the "Upper Elk" Congregation in Maryland attended a meeting in New Castle Presbytery. Sometime after four sons of John (John, Robert, Thomas and Zebulon) left Maryland, probably on death of father and set out for North Carolina. There in 1747-48 John and Robert entered upon land on the headwater of Rocky River located between the Davidson and Templeton families. John’s wife was Jane McWhorter. Two Brevard girls-Polly and Sally- married Davidson Brothers, John and George Davidson. John and his wife were killed by Indians. Notes for MARY KATHERINE MCKNITT:

She was born 1713 in Somerset, Maryland, and died Aft. 1749. Notes for ADAM BREVARD: Per Stephen Hand (author of Brevard Family 1990) - Adam, as the oldest son, seems to have inherited Charles Camp - plantation of his father - and added additional acres to the property. Adam was a private in the company of Capt. John Evans in Somerset Cty., Md in 1748. Children of ADAM BREVARD and MARY MCKNITT are:

Chronic Fatigue. Epstein Barr Virus. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Recently, in August 2009, a blood test revealed I had a very high number of active Epstein Barr Virus; my score was 30 times what it should have been (30 times high-normal).
Treatment was infusions of Alpha Lipoic Acid for 5 days (an anti-oxidant, as best I understand it); followed by oral dosage (pills) of Alpha Lipoic Acid (purchased from the health-food store) and Pantothenic Acid (3 pills twice a day), plus lots of vitamins to bolster my immune system.
Here is what I took, but please not that I am NOT giving medical advice, merely describing the course of treatment administered to me:
PANTOTHENIC ACID 500 MG. I take 3 PILLS TWICE DAILY.
Rebuild--osteopososis formula: a multivitamin from Metabolic Maintenance Company: 6 capsules daily.
Selenium 22 mcg tablets. I took two a day.
Vitamin D --I take the 5000 IU strength because I suffer from chronic/acute pain. People without pain wouldn't want to do that, I imagine.
Magnesium Citrate from Metabolic Maintenance Co. 500 mg.
Alpha Lipoic Acid --Carlson Co. or Metabolic Maintenance Co.
Three months later, my blood-test revealed only five times high-normal. I hope in yet another 3 months, my blood test will be within NORMAL range. Most importantly, I feel better.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is no joke. For months before diagnosis--yes, I went to several doctors who did not test for Chronic Fatigue--I slept and slept yet still wanted to sleep even more. Four months later, in December 2009, I don't feel the desperate need to sleep. I'm not a medical professional, and make absolutely no warranties or guarantees, but I want to give some help to anyone suffering as I was. There is hope. I am posting this in the hope that this information will help somebody somewhere.
