Old Guestbook Entries
We started the Wayne County Genealogy and History Web Page Guestbook in December 1999. Due to being overwhelmed with Spam entries, the Guestbook was discontinued in August 2003. The valid entries to the Guestbook where salvaged and appear here. Many of these entries are comments about the pages, but some of them contain query information. It was therefore decided to include the entire page in the Queries section. We hope that these entries will provide information that does not appear elsewhere in the pages.
I grew up in Wayne County, 21/2 miles North of Waynesboro. I graduated
from WCHS in 1959. Still have many relatives there.

after the Civil War. On your list of Wayne County Sheriffs, you have David H.
Jones, sheriff for 2 years, 1876-78. Please check the original documents. The
name should be Daniel H. Jones. I would love to hear from you on this. Also, my
great, great grandfather, William Jones, was Clerk of Wayne County before the
Civil War. Could you please give me information on the dates of his term in
office or any information that you have on him. I have enjoyed reading all of

Hoping to find someone with information. In a group of letters that my
Grandfather wrote to my Grandmother, before they were married, on June 19, 1890
he commented on the fact that the new school was to be built in Flatwoods, and
that it was to be built between Mr. Whitaker and Tom Graves. He said 'the boom
has struck Flatwoods.' On Nov. 10, 1890, he wrote that he had been subpoenaed as
a witness in the lawsuit over the plans for the new school. Anyone have the
history on this?

along the way they several children. I don't have the whole list,just the ones I
remember. Beulah Pearl,1904 -198_, Lily,1907-1973,J.T.Who passed early,at age
12,I believe. Mary Helen, my mother,Dec.27,1919,at Enloe,Tx.She married Tella
Wilson, in Oct.11,1939 . Anyway, that's about it, except Grandma, passed away
May 8,1974 as I was getting out of the Army.

It was nice to look at your site, for historical purposes I can trace my
heritage to Tennessee while it was still part of the Kentucky Territory. My
ancestor was in the revolutionary war as a guard to General Washington and was
given as a pension ~200 acres of land in what later became Scott County
Tennessee ( I was born there in 1955), if you look at their site they will show
the original settlers (Joseph Griffith my ancestor was one). I do have a favor
to ask if and when you get time, I collect old Studebakers and I have a 1949
Champion that when I tracked the original production order from the Studebaker
museum it listed Waynesboro Tennessee as the destination site. At one time
Waynesboro or the nearby area must have had a Studebaker dealership. My car is a
1949 but I would imagine that it would have been there still into the early or
mid-1950's at least. Would you have any old pictures or records that might list
this dealership? The car ended up being purchased in 1979 in Jackson Tn. by a
professor that later moved to Michigan where it stayed in a barn until I
purchased it. Any help that you can give would be greatly appreciated, I don't
know if the vehicle serial number would help you(not sure they keep records on
cars that long) but if you think it might I can send that to you. But if the
only thing I end up with is the name of the dealership that would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks Claude Griffith

Just found your site. The comments about Wayne Co. sound so good, I am
ready to pack my bags and move there! Felt a spiritual kinship with those having
relatives from Wayne Co. as my great great great grandfather, John Balentine and
wife Sarah lived in Wayne Co. and my grandfather and grandmother were born
there. Also related to Holt, and Fowler on my grandmother's side. There are also
Coopers, and Tilleys in the line, as well as Darby, Straggs, and others.

A William Gordon was my great great grandfather who lived in Wayne County during the 1830's through the 1850's before moving to Mississippi. I would like to know more about his activities which in Tennessee.
Nathaniel MARTIN (c1821-1896) born Martin's Mills (Wayne County) Tennessee and died on Cave Creek (Newton County) Arkansas was my maternal great grandpa. I published MARTIN LETTERS which includes letters written for or by him (after he learned to write) to his son, Samuel Nathaniel MARTIN, by his first wife, Leah MARTON, and letters written to Sam's daughter, Aggie (later EGAN), by my mother, Walcie MARTIN, then DEAN, in the 1920's. Also included are old maps, excerpts from letters sent and received in my research efforts. The book is out of print. I had the pleasure of meeting some of my MARTIN kin in Wayne and McNairy County, TN, and in Florence (Lauderdale County) Alabama. I would love to find a proveable connection between the immigrant HORTON and my immigrant MARTIN who are said to have stowed away on a ship to America and served in the Revolutionary War together. I found HORTON's service record but no mention of my MARTIN.

I am a soldier and journalist currently stationed in Wuerzburg, GE, who has recently begun doing research on my family history. I have found that there is a large concentration of Stockards located in Wayne County, Tennessee. I have uncles by the names of, Howard Stockard (TN), and Donald Stockard (UT), and my father is Kenneth Stockard, originally from Wayne County. My late paternal grandparents were Herman Stockard and ("Willie") Ruth Stockard. I don't know many of my family past that, but I'd like to. We used to have reunions in Davy Crockett Park in Tennessee. That's all I can remember. If you have any info or could assist me in learning more about my family, please e-mail me. Thanks. FORGOT TO ADD THAT I GREW UP IN LEXINGTON & FLORENCE, ALABAMA, IF THIS HELPS.
