Please follow these guidelines for sending your
query:
- If your lines are not in Williamson County, please
do not enter a query here.
- Your query must have a STATED Williamson or adjacent County connection, or it will
not be posted. What is your connection with Williamson County or with
connecting counties?
- Enter your query exactly as you want it to appear.
- Please put all SURNAMES in CAPS. It is easier to see them. Use full
names, not just surnames.
- Include dates that you know. Approximate dates are fine. Names without
dates are not very useful, and may not be posted.
In your research of queries, don't forget to check out the queries that were
posted during the previous months. Links to them are at the bottom of this query

Note: Query pages within the TNGenWeb project are for those researchers
requesting or offering assistance in tracing their lineage. The TNGenWeb
volunteers are dedicated to providing this FREE online Internet genealogical
Web Site for the general public. It is NOT the policy of TNGenWeb to charge
you.
It has come to our attention that some folks, when answering a query, have
been asking to be paid for research. We do recognize that it would be fair to
be asked to be reimbursed for postage and photocopy costs. However, charging
research fees for information pertaining to the original query would be
questionable at best.
If anyone is asked to pay for any information, other than to cover the cost of
postage and copying, please let the State
Coordinator know.

I am looking for the parents of Eliza RAGSDALE b. 1809(?)
d.@1842(Allen Co KY). About 1823 she married John Jackson GOODRUM. I
believe that John is given as John GOODNEM in the 1840 Maury CO TN
census, a neighbor county of Williamson CO. There are no RAGSDALE's
in Maury, Sumner Co TN, or Warren/Allen Co KY during this period.
There are 11 RAGSDALE families in the 1820 Williamson Co,TN census.
If anyone has information that can lead me to the parents of Eliza
RAGSDALE, I would be most appreciative. Eliza RAGSDALE GOODRUM was
my ggg-grandmother.
