        I started rummaging around in my genealogical closet two years ago, 1998, and it has been a wondrous journey. I have had the help of a lot of people along the way, not the least of which is the volunteers at the USGenWeb project.  Who knows why they do look-ups for complete strangers in their spare time? ....kindness....generosity....love of genealogy. I'd particularly like to thank Pat Jones who does look-ups for McNairy County, TN and is host to the McNairy County, TN mail list:

TNMCNAIR-L@rootsweb.com
(just type subscribe in the body of the message)

and George Waller, host of the Lincoln County, TN mail list:

TNLINCOL-L@rootsweb.com

George's family owns the Lincoln County Pioneers Magazine and he has an index to back issues online at:

Lee B. Cate does lookups for Weakley County, TN and is helping tremendously with chasing the cobwebs out of my husband’s family attic.  I’d also like to thank Johnita Malone, Jan Minter, Harold Plunk and Paul L. Plunk for their inexhaustive efforts to document the Plunk/Sipes line and connections.  Johnita is the reigning Queen of Genealogy, IMHO, and I don’t know what any of us would do without her.

 

I have recently revamped all my records. My old site has outline trees only. These reports are fuller and, consequently, larger. Family Tree Maker refers to this type of report as a "Genealogy Report." I've added quite a few pictures, as well.  These trees are complete all the way down to my grandchildren.

 

If you notice errors, omissions, or want to provide additional data, please,

I am also doing some work on the McNairy County, TN censuses, marriage records and Goodspeed's Tennessee History of McNairy County.  These may be found in researchable format, (thanks to the genius of Marc D. Tilley, my beloved husband), at the following:
