Do you know anything about a William (b.c1876) or Oscar (b.c1878) Peltier of Anderson County. Their mother was Mary Elizabeth Ross and her second husband was Peterson M. Liles a druggist in Clinton. William and Oscar are listed with Peterson and Mary on the 1880 Census. It appears that none of Peterson and Mary's children survived to adulthood but I wonder about the Mary's two boys. Peterson is the son of my gg-grandfather James Liles. Sandy (Liles) Fine Loudon Co, TN

I joined the Knox Cty. web site about 10 = months ago. I had only one clue of information on my great, great = grandfather and grandmother(besides date of birth and death). I knew = they were from Tn. Through the help of others, I located him on the = 1850 Knox County Census - Thomas G. BRITT- 16yrs of age.=20 Along with his father, Thomas G. Britt ( 48yrs - born in TN) mother, = Sarah McCloud Britt (46yrs -born in Tn) brother Jame M. (20yrs) and = sisters, Martha (12yrs) Louise E. (9yrs) . Also listed on the census = with my Britts is an Issac LANE. I have no clue as to who he is. I = learned from the marriage listings on this site, the maiden name of my = Tom's mother MCCLOUD. The father and mother are listed on the 1860 = census. And that is all I have. Where were they before 1850 ?? And = where were the children after 1850?? =20 On the marriage list all names are found, and I have searched several = databases for the siblings. No luck or clues. If the Thomas Britt on = the marriage list is mine it shows he married a Martha CUNNINGHAM( = 6/7/1854). But, I also know he married my great great grandmother Francis Evelyn = DAVIS on 12/1/1878. She was also from TN. All I know of her is that = she was from a wealthy family, and that when she married Thomas, her = family disowned her. I dont know if it was because they felt he was = beneath her or if it was the age difference and that he had been = possibly married before???? He was 24 yrs older then Francis. They came = to Texas by Wagon and Thomas died in 1885. Many Questions and Many = Brick Walls! Thomas G. BRITT - 10/16/1835 - 5/17/1885 Frances Evelyn DAVIS - born 1859 died 1946 I would appreciate any help, suggestions or clues. I noticed that Terri = Jurca has MCCLOUD in her list of surnames. Hey Terri, could my Sarah be = part of your bunch???? =20 =20 For all that help keep the = site going ****THANK YOU**** Interesting side note, My son married in Dec. of 1998. I just found out = this week that my daughter in law is a descendent of the MCCLUNG'S there = in Knoxville. I have seen the name so many time on this list. I am = getting with her mother this week to find out the exact relation. Just = thought, it really is a small world. - ------=_NextPart_000_0024_01BFF2E7.D6FDFD00 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-1" = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.00.2614.3500" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2> <DIV><FONT color=3D#000080 face=3D"Comic Sans MS">Hello, my name is Kay = Rodell.
