GUINN, CHILDERS,
FRANKLIN
Does anyone have any information on the Rev.
William G. GUINN (b. 1796), born possibly in Warren County, lived in
Franklin, Grundy and Coffee Counties? He may hav
e lived in the same area all his life, but it looks like he moved due to
county boundary changes. He had a large family and his second wife was
Priscilla Burrows (m. by 1835). It seems he was related to Elisha and
Champion GUINN and possibly Elias GUINN
of Warren Co. My great great grandfather, Elisha GUINN, son of the REV.
Wm. GUINN or son of Champion GUINN married Nancy C. FRANKLIN in the Cowan
district (Franklin Co.) in1846. His son, George D.GUINN was a Methodist
minister like his father. Nancy se
em to have no ties to any of the Franklin families of Franklin County at
that time, unless it would be David FRANKLIN. Any info greatly
appreciated. Will share-have much speculativeinformation on these
families.

TEAGUE b abt 1849 TN d 1898 Marion Co TN area mine. m abt 1869 to Hannah
O'Neal b abt 1849 in GA. The 1870 Marion Co,TN Census lists following:
District 13, #96-96, TEAGUE Dolphus 21
m works/coal mines TN Hannah 21 f Kp house GA. The 1860 Census of Marion
Co. #1001-931: Edward O'Neal 42 GA, Elizabeth 40 GA, Joel A. O'Neal 17 GA,
William O'Neal 16 GA, Hannah J. O'Neal 12 GA, Zachariah O'Neal 10 GA, Julia
Ann O'Neal 9 AL, Nancy E. O'Nea
l 5 AL, Sarah T. O'Neal 1 AL. It appears the Edward O'Neal family lived in
Ga before 1850 when they moved to AL in 1850/1851 AL and lived there until
abt 1859/1860 when they moved to Marion Co., TN. The Edward O'Neal family
is not on Marion Co Tn Census
for 1870 so either they moved back to AL or Ga or another Co in TN or
someplace else.

HAMPTON
Information on Elizabeth HAMPTON and her children - Reuben (b. TN 1828),
Caroline (b. TN 1831), William H. (b. AL? 1842), Harriet (b. 1851). The
family
lived in Grundy County. Elizabeth was born in TN about 1811 and died
between
1881-1899. Don't know her husband's given name but I believe she married
before 1828. Reuben married Sarah RICHEY in 1849, raised 7 children in
Grundy
and moved to CA after 1880. Caroline may have marrie
d FULTS and/or RHEA ca. 1858. William Hardy (or Hardin?) married M.E.
FREEMAN in 1862, Sarah Elizabeth SMITH in 1866 and Bammie (?) after 1884
and died in 1916. I believe Reuben and Wm. both served in the Confederate
Army. Harriet may have married Jess
e M. GIVENS. Any information would be appreciated but specifically looking
for information on Elizabeth's husband.
