Another Tilman Bettes/Bettis
I am researching Tilman Bettes/Bettis b. abt. 1808 in TN.I'm aware of the Tillman Bettis (b. 1788) and Sally Carr family, but as they have a son named Tillman Carr b. 1824 it is unlikely that he would have had a living older son with the same name.It seems possible that my Tilman is a nephew to Tillman and Sally Carr Bettis.I have been told that Tillman (b. 1788) came to western TN with three brothers.Does anyone know if the brothers - William, John and James had a son named Tillman?
My information is as follows:
Tillman S. Bettes or Bettis b. 1808 in Tenn. living in Obion Co., TN in 1860 census, and in Pemiscot Co., MO in 1870.Children are Livina J. 1835; John G. 1839; Sally Ann 1842; Martin 1844; James H. 1848; Newton S. 1850; Morris "Puck" Pulaski 1854; Nancy 1857; and Robert E. Lee 1864.
Any information on this family would be appreciated and I am happy to share what I have as well.Thanks,
Leslee Boyd
