DeKalb County, Tennessee Queries
Fourth Quarter, 2002
Reuben HAIL was born 1802 in Tennessee. He appears in the 1830
census for Smith County, Tennessee. I believe that he was related to
the HAIL-HALE family in DeKalb county. I have info on Reuben's life
and descendants after 1830 when he left Tennessee for Missouri. I
need to find Reuben's parents. Any other relatives or descendants
who stayed in Tennessee would be nice to know about. Especially who
his parents were. Thanks so much Brian in springfield mo.

I am trying to find information on a W.C. Garner or William C Garner
may be married to a Sarah Spurgin. I belived they lived in Dekalb
county before moving to Hardin county. W. C Garner was born in 1848
and I found him in 1880 census in hardin so it would have to be the
1870's that he was here. They might have had twin girls at the time
of living in Dekalb names Hettey and Lettey.
Thank You for your help.

I am looking for any information about Philip Palmer (Sr) and Philip
Palmer (Jr). They are both listed in the Smith County 1820 census.
They lived in part of Smith County that later became part of DeKalb
County. I believe it is Philip Sr. who is referenced in Dekalb county
history as being a revolutionary war veteran, and early settler in
the area, and that he is buried in Alexandria (perhaps in South View,
or East View, cemetery) He may have moved from North Carolina to
Tennessee, after the Revolution. He may have had two wives, the
second possibly named Rachel Davis. His son, Philip Jr. was married
to Lucinda Palmer. She is listed in the 1850 census for Dekalb as a
widow, along with the names of her children. The Palmers were
related to the Pistoles of DeKalb county by the marriage of Edmund
Palmer (son of Philip Jr.) to Rhoda Pistole.
