KELLY, KELLEY, HICKS

My 3 grgrandparents, Noah and Hannah HICKS KELL(E)Y, were married in Wilson Co TN in 1806 and lived there "somewhere" for over 20 years. They had nine children from ca 1807 to 1823. I am told they left from Lincoln Co TN with members of the KING family in 1829/30. I have found them in records beginning in 1840 IL. Their known children list TN as their place of birth. Hannah was born in NC (b. 1784/85), Noah in DE, NC, New England (b. 1784/85 also), depending on the record and/or transcription. An 1874 book about Montgomery Co IL, tells about Noah and Hannah's grandson and also says that their son, William, "stayed" in TN when they left in 1829/30--I assume he was probably their oldest child and would have been likely about 22 years old at that time. It also mentions a son George who died in TN (as an infant?) and says that Noah was a methodist preacher in IL. Suggestions?

HUBBARD

CLARKE AND LUCY HUBBARD - Looking for information on Clarke and Lucy Hubbard. Early censuses showed them to be residents of Wilson County. Census of 1850 showed them living in Cannon County with a man I assume to be their son and his family. They do not show up in the 1860 census. They did purchase 75 acres along the Smith Fork in Wilson County in 1824 and I have been told they had 11 children. Does anyone know when they died or where they might be buried? does anyone have bilbe records or information on their other children? I can be reached at hubbardjim@hotmail.com Thanks for your help.
