 Unresolved Queries Hello! Chuck Riley gave me your email address in hopes that you know of my gggrandmother, Lucy Deadman. She is said to have been born in IL on 6/25/1824. She died in Independence Co., AR, on 2/15/1888. She married Hadden Elms. While most people call her Lucy Deadman, I have seen her name listed as Lucy Deadman Thurman. She may be Indian. Her origins have escaped many a hunt. Hope you can help us! --Linda Wilson I WAS WONDERING IF YOU HAVE FOUND ANYTHING ON MY FATHER BUD EMERSON DEDMAN AND A SAMMY DEDMAN THEY WERE BROTHERS, I KNOW MY FATHER WAS BORN IN ARK.IN 1924 AND HIS BROTHER WAS ABOUT 10 OR 11 YEARS OLDER THAN HE WAS. I KNOW WE HAVE A LOT IN AMERICAN INDIAN IN US. THAT IS ABOUT ALL I KNOW. IT IS NOT MUCH TO GO ON BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD ASK Mona Gautreaux (All my life I have been told that there was Indian in the Dedmon family. I suspect that it is true, but we reallly have no substantial proof of this. I am sure it would be of interest to our readers to hear from some who may have documented evidence --- Leroy) |

Following is an exchange of
email with Patricia Pool. I had mistyped some information that she helped
straighten out... thanks Patrica Hello, am curious as to where you found Fannie Dedmon marrying Horace Lowe. I have a great grandmother named Fannie Dedmon who married Henry Horace Pool. Henry Horace Pool was my father's grandfather. my father's mother however was a Loe (Lowe). can you help me here? thank you, Patricia Pool (my reply to her)Dear Patricia, I have sent for the email .. It really sounds as if someone has this mixed up.. I have had a difficult time finding desendents of Alfred Burton Dedmon... Of which you are one... there is too much coindence.. as you said in the first letter...It is easy for folks to type in wrong info, etc.. Is this the only Dedmon name you have info on...... I would love to have your info on the Pool from Fannie to you, thanks, Leroy (her reply):Leroy, Thank you for the information on the Dedmon's. My great grandmother, Fannie Dedmon, was from Ringgold, GA., which is in Catoosa Cnty. I think it must be the one you mentioned, but I don't get her marrying Horace Loe. I would appreciate that e-mail address if you find it. I do believe things are a bit mixed up. I'll give you what I have so far, and hope that it will help you. Henry Horace Pool was from Tyler or Marshall, TX. He had a brother Jessie and a half brother Marshall. Henry Horace Pool married Fannie Aurelia Dedmon, who was from Ringgold, Catoosa Cnty, GA. Henry Horace and Fannie had two children. Henry Cecil Pool and Lucille ? Pool. Henry Cecil Pool married Docia Pauline Loe. She went by Pauline by the way. They had four sons. Henry Clovis Pool Hollis Raymond Pool (my father) Jessie Theron Pool Paul Rodney Pool (went by Rod) Lucille married a Loe, don't know which one. Then later married a Henderson. I'll have to ask my father which Loe she married; there were six brothers and four sisters. This might help me. Hope this helps you. Patricia Pool |
| Dear George, I am really
interested to see if we are part of your family tree. We live in England and
still have the spelling of Deadman as our surname. Please let me gain access to
your information. Looking forward to hearing from you. Kind regards,
Mrs Tracy J Deadman (married to Wesley
Deadman who is the son of David John Deadman) (My reply):Tracy, I am delighted to hear from you. We desperately need some Deadman family researchers who are still in England... How can I help.... I will be glad to send you whatever... if you can use GEDCOM files that wiill be the bes. It you have msword, and want doc files I need to know the version you use.. Otherwise, we will have to go to .txt files.... also do you have some info on Wesley's anscestors... thanks (George)... call me Leroy (Her response):Dear Leroy, Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, I was a little tied up with work. I have only recently decided that it would be interesting to find out about the Deadman family as it's quite an unusual name over here in England. I have met about three other people with the same spelling of the name (not in the known family) and it's always talked about in depth. My father-in-law and husband are both mechanics and work of Daimler DS420 Limousines for a Funeral director, this also leads to discussion & amusement when people find out the connection with the name (especially with the spelling). I recently found out that we were listed in a book, along with Deadman's all over the world. I tried to contact the company "Burke's Peerage" in Wiltshire, England and just found out that they have ceased trading. They gave a telephone number to contact is USA but I haven't called yet. If you are interested their number is 00-1-3-30-945-8200 (sorry I have included the dialing code from the UK. I wasn't sure what I should miss off). I think they are in Ohio and part of the Numa Corporation. The book is called "The Burke's Peerage World Book Of Deadmans". Maybe you already have this book in which case it would be interesting to find out where we are listed in it. I spoke to my husband last night and told him I was planning on tracing the family tree and he said I should keep you up to date with the information. Wouldn't it be great if our trees joined up somewhere. I can't imagine it would be that difficult for me to find the information as there aren't too many of us, as I said. I'm afraid I am a little computer illiterate and not sure what facilities I have for extracting information. I do know that I have MSword97 so if you would like to send me some information I would find it really interesting. I am going to try and contact the Numa corporation today and try to get hold of a copy of the book, I don't hold out much hope. I'll contact you soon and let you know how I'm getting on. Really looking forward to delving into the past. Take care, Best wishes, Tracy Deadman |
Hi, I went to the Tennessee State Archives last
week and I found the proof I needed to connect our families: My great
grandmother's death certificate. Here is a list of it's pertinent contents.
Name: Arveyzena Caroline Bowen Female, White, Widowed Died: Dec 29, 1915,
Craven's Landing, Hardin Co, TN Born: Oct 16, 1832 Father: John Deadmon Mother:
? Singleterry Informant: J. A. Bowen, Savannah, TN (her son) Cause of death: La
gripp complicated with heart trouble and lastly pneumonia Buried: Old Aenon
Cemetery, Hardin Co, TN That pretty much clinches it. It doesn't provide the
places of birth of her or her parents, but the TN census had North Carolina for
all three in most years. One year it has South Carolina for her parents, but I
believe this was an error on the part of the informant or the census taker. I
couldn't find any record of a marriage yet, but I am still searching. I know
they were married around 1850 so it is likely they married in Georgia since
Caroline is with her parents in the 1850 census of Walker Co. I also found
evidence that her husband James Young Bowen's family was in Itawamba Co,
Mississippi at that time. They were William and Rebecca Bowen. I will keep you
informed of any other new information I find. It was a very successful trip.
