John H Stokes

Samuel married Lucinda J Humphrey on 15 Jun 1879 in TN. Lucinda (daughter of Howard Humphrey and Susannah Carden) was born between 1861 and 1862 in TN; died before 1900. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

When the census taker stopped by the household of John H Stokes on June 1, 1880, Johnny and his wife Emeline were living in the same household with Lucinda and her husband Houston. When the census taker stopped by the household of Howard Humphrey on June 19, 1880, Lucinda was back living at home and listed as both married and single. Had Lucinda and Houston separated? If so, they must have gotten back together because they had a child in 1881.

Notes:

Nathaniel (he was known as Nathan) bought 200 acres of land in Grainger Co, TN from Joseph Owen on Nov 1, 1805. Based on Nathan's range of ages from census records, he would have been from five to fifteen years old when this transaction occurred. Nathan paid taxes on this 200 acres of land in 1810 and 1821. Nathan sold his land in Grainger Co to Jacob Kinder on Aug 22, 1822 (the same date as his father, John selling his land - evidently they sold their land together and moved to Anderson Co). Nathan had moved to Anderson County, TN by 1830 (as did John), was living in that county in 1840 and 1850, and had moved to Union County, TN in 1860.

Nathaniel married Elizabeth Young on 13 Jul 1812 in Grainger Co, TN. Elizabeth was born in in NC; died before 1840 in TN. [Group Sheet]
