Emma Adcock, Nashville, Davidson Co., TN c.1875

beckysunderman1 — 2012-03-04 16:44:21Z

I am searching for an EMMA Adcock who married (William?)Andrew Cooper in Nashville, Davidson Co, TN about 1875, had 3 children, 2 who didn't live to maturity, and a 3rd, William Jennings Cooper. I think she may have died during or soon after William's birth, as Andrew remarried, Ada Dunn, in AR in 1896.
No further info on Emma, her parents, or on William.
This whole line has been a dead end so far. Any help greatly appreciated.

Jeremiah Burson "James" Adcock 1848-1882 - Physician

jimnerma — 2011-10-02 21:59:02Z

Family lore states:

"Jeremiah died 09 Nov 1882 while making"house calls" on horseback [probably between Farmerville and Bernice]. It was a severe winter and he took sick and died. He evidently was buried where he died. The grave site is unknown."

Can any descendant of Grandfather Jeremiah tell me where he is buried? It has been a big mystery.

Thanks,

Robert born @ 1803 NC and died 26 Feb 1892 Rutherford Co., TN.
He married Martha Ann Turner @ 1840 Rutherford Co., TN. They had 12 children. In 1880 Bedford Co., TN, in his house was John W. age 9 a grandson, granddaughter Malisa A. 13 and grandson William A. age 5. Who was their father? or mother?
They are listed as Adcock. I think this could be my husband's grandfather, he was born 14 Jul 1871 Bedford Co., TN and died 20 Oct 1918 Christian Co., KY.
Thanks for taking the time to read my request.

Native American Adcock

ticcaf2 — 2011-06-08 16:35:13Z

I am looking for Adcock families with Native American heritage. My information is poorly supported but I am finding that my Great Grandmother was born Annie Mae Adcock. She went by the name Ella or Lulla. She married Joe Clipper sometime before 1905. Her death record states she was born in Alabama in 1859, but I believe her real dob was around 1872. Family history says she was banished from her tribe for marrying a white man. I am looking for her family. Any information would be wonderful. Please contact me here or directly at ticcaf_rpg@yahoo.com Thank you.
