Sarah Mullinax clues - link to Mary Emily Mullinax

Your mystery Mullinax, Sarah, is probably actually Mary Emily Mullinax (though she could also be Mary's sister, Martha, who married William Caylor).

Mary Emily Mullinax married William P. Dunn. Originally someone had different parents for him, but I think he is William P. Dunn, brother of Rhoda (Dunn) Headrick, who is John Scott Headrick's wife. My reason for thinking this about William P. Dunn and Mary Emily Mullinax, is that, right after the marriage, a couple of newlyweds named William and Mary E Dunn are living right beside .

She is one of those Mullinax children whose household was split up, with the children scattered among nearby Caylors and Dovers in 1870. The parents had disappeared or died: Malinda, the biological mother, between 1851 and 1856; Benjamin, the father, in 1869. Mary, the stepmother, lived until 1927, and remarried Charles M. Dover in 1869--so some of the children are found in the Dover household.

Mary Emily Mullinax PID -- think of her as "probably a.k.a. Sarah":

Attach these sources to Kimbrough

Go to these search pages and attach the relevant sources to R. T. Kimbrough (aka R. Q. or R. I. Kimbrough, bc they misread the handwriting).

Stapp lineage to work on - do a biog and make a blog post

Go back to Family Search, work up a biog. on this lineage:

Georgia, Marriage Records From Select Counties, 1828-1978 for Emmett Staff: Catoosa County, Georgia, Record of Marriages, Book B, page 242: Emmitt Stapp (Staff) married Julia Garret on 18 Aug 1901. (JR Mury? NT & JP). Recorded four days later by J C Hix, Ordinary.

Jessie James Stapp, aged 37, residing at 101 Crawford Ave., Rossville, Walker, Ga. Birth: 30 Sep 1904, Ringgold, Ga. [Ringgold, Catoosa, Georgia]. Contact person is Mrs. Jessie James Stapp. Employer: Self (at 101 Crawford Ave., Rossville, Walker, Ga.) Signed: Jessie James Stapp.

(1) L1JG-57V Robert Emmett Stapp, born 29 August 1879, in Georgia; (right guy for sure); was a mechanic; married Julia Garrett. Disappeared from census, apparently, unless duplicate of...

(2) L12P-Q21 Robert Emmett Stapp, born 29 August 1884, Atlanta (or) Gwinnett Co., Georgia; was a mechanic; married/partnered w/Ruby Aycock/Eckardt; moved a lot.

(3) LV62-R8Y Emmett Stapp, son of Jesse William Stapp and Martha Lou Sinda.

I think the above three will eventually be merged.

Put it on North Georgia Kin when it's done.

You want to do this, because people on FamilySearch will probably detach sources and make a mess of it!

Lemuel Smith / Mary Dickson - similar couples, but very far apart, generationally

Working on Charlene's Pollard line...

While attaching an attributed son, I found some people in Texas born decades later, but having such similar names in both sides of their family, that I thought they might bear researching to see if distantly related. I was attaching this son: John Smith (born 1818, Georgia; attributed to parent, Lemuel Smith, by an Ancestry user; no sources). When skimming people suggested as matching, this person came up. The birth is so far removed, there's no possibility of a match; however the naming patterns in that family look very similar to the naming patterns in this family:

James Lemuel Smith (PID K84W-P7J ; born 1861) married Mary Esther Dickson (born 1861); married on 31 Oct 1883, Cuthand, Rr, Tx.

Then look at Charlene's line:

Lemuel Smith, born 1788 (PID LDJH-1F7) married Mary Dickson (born 1795); married on 8 Nov 1810, Hancock Co., Georgia.

The births of these people are decades apart, but the southern families are always so clannish, I thought the names looked promising. Could just be a coincidence, but it won't hurt to play with that Texas line and see if it leads back to the Georgia one.

Work on J. F. Gilbert of Murray County

https://www.familysearch.org/search/record/results?count=20&query=%2Bgivenname%3A%22j%20f%22~%20%2Bsurname%3Agilbert~%20%2Bbirth_year%3A1800-1890~%20%2Bresidence_place%3A%22murray%2C%20georgia%22~%20%2Bresidence_year%3A1900-1910~&treeref=LYDW-M95

Search results page: create PID and attach sources! Note: I believe J. F. Gilbert may be the one who bought land from John E. Headrick and quickly resold it to A. S. Dunn -- possibly an executorship thing, or some other go-between; or perhaps a quit-claim; or could have turned a quick profit or something.

Siniard - Green - Bryant Family Group to Enter in Family Search and to Study

Lineage to study.

On Ancestry, a user has:

On FamilySearch, these are some records (link):

https://www.familysearch.org/search/record/results?count=20&query=%2Bgivenname%3A%22joseph%20prince%22~%20%2Bsurname%3Agreen~%20%2Bresidence_place%3A%22bradley%2C%20tennessee%22~%20%2Bresidence_year%3A1900-1900~

It appears that an Edith Jones + (1) "Edwin" Green, and had Joseph Prince Green, born 1890.

ON ANCESTRY, A USER HAS EQUATED EDWIN WITH EDMOND!
     : Edmond Syniard/Green + Edith Jane Jones.

Later, Edith married Nathan Bryant, and Joseph P Green is a stepson of the household.

Joseph P Green later married Murlie Foster (1912, Bradley). Two years later, they had a stillborn child (buried at Cookston Creek, Polk, Tenn.). The informant was a W.H. Shields, of Parksville.

This line just keeps getting more and more confusing.

Need to enter this family unit, above, in Family Search.

Work on Stepp - Check census attachments

Work on 1910 Census listing; you started attaching, but wife doesn't seem to match. Find out if there's a second wife or something.


Joseph Walter Stepp
21 July 1874 – 30 June 1946 • L7P4-2X3

Work on this lineage!

Work on this:

https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LWVL-XGK

You had detached two of his sons, one of whom had moved out to Calif. and died. There seemed to be a conflict, with the mothers not matching, and an overlap of dates making it seem as if he could not have married both women. However... the one out in California definitely had Tenn. roots, had a father of same name (actually living w/him in Calif.), and had other things that seemed promising. On the other hand, I think I saw another person of similar name out in California, and/or one that had a marriage in Illinois that overlapped in the same, impossible way. Anyway, do some work on this line!

Work in Progress

Establishing identity of William P. Dunn

(Orig., I was distinguishing differences between him and another Dunn, who had probably gotten a bit mixed up in the tree.

Relevant Person and Source:

William P. Dunn aka William Perry? Dunn, born March 1849, (Blount Co.), Tennessee.

The middle initial, "P," is documented in one source, so far:

U.S. Census, 1900, Caddo, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory, Supv. Dist. 73, ED 183, Sheet 7 A (stamped 259), Township 5 S, Range 9 E (indexed as 10 E): William P Dun, aged 32, married male, head. Birth: Mar 1849, Tennessee. Both parents born in Tennessee. Married 6 years (est. 1894). Wife is Mary E Dunn (born in Georgia; mother of 4 children, 2 living). Children in the household are Jules, aged 2, born in Georgia; and Clide, aged 6/12, born in Ind.

John and Emma Green lineage (working on Kisire/Kesiah)

Study this John Green of Tennessee, who married an Emma Green of Arkansas, and moved to Oklahoma. Several of the children have names very like the Georgia/Tennessee bunch. I'm wondering if John could be a son of David, the oldest son of John and Emily (Young) Green? We have nothing on David... no clue to him or any possible offspring.

John Green, born 1865, Tennessee; resided in Haskell, Oklahoma, in 1910. Wife is Emma. Children, Luther, Buster, etc.:

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MLQF-P9R

---------------------------------

Also look at William Madison Green (died 16 Nov 1923, Haskell, Oklahoma), son of John Franklin Green, of Tennessee, and Nevada (?Levada?) Bingham, of Georgia.

This might be an interesting story: Bird sold whiskey to Tom Flowers, who got blind drunk and was hit by a train. In another 1903 paper, it mentions Tom Flowers again (search "hit by a train").


Bird and his wife were fined, then sent to the poorhouse...
