Trying to locate land in Polk County that was an Ocoee grant of 160 acres
described as the Northwest Quarter of Section 29 of Township 1 in Range 2 East
of the Meridian. That plat belonged to GEORGE BAKER when he died intestate in
1847, then was bought at auction by his son-in-law JOHN PEARCE (from Bradley
Chancery Records). John Pearce was living there in the 1850 census (Polk 4th
Civil District), but had moved to Bradley County by the 1860 census. How can I
find the location and present owner(s) of that land, given the loss of Polk
County deeds prior to 1893?

began searching surrounding counties census records and found a William CAMERON
in the 1840 census in Polk county. All I know about him is that he was
born in Ireland, married in Cleveland, Bradley county in 1850 and had his first
child a year later in Barry county, MO. He was not found on the 1850
Bradley county census, so I find myself at a loss as to where to turn to next.
How do I ascertain whether this is the CAMERON in Polk county that I am looking
for? Any help or information would be greatly appreciated as Ive been stuck on
him for years. He met an untimely death during the Civil War and Ive
always wondered when and how he came to be in MO...Did he parallel the migration

I am developing a regimental history of my ggrandfather's, James Madison
Martin, regiment, the 43rd Tennessee Infantry, CSA, intend to publish which will
include a complete roster, by individual companies, including as much pertinent
biographical information possible on each of the soldiers. He had three
brothers in Co. K including Issac Martin who died at Vicksburg. I have the
national archives microfilm rolls of the regiments service records, Official
Records of the War, Tennesseans in the Civil War, and most of the basic
reference works . Since most official confederate army records did not survive,
I am looking for letters, diaries, momentos, photos, papers, histories, etc.,
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. A memorial ceremony will
be conducted on Confederate Memorial Day, April 26, 1998 (I believe) at the
Vicksburg, Miss. City Cemetery dedicating newly placed tomb stones for
Confederate soldiers, including 31 of those from the 43rd Tenn.
