Hattie Cotton, Nashville, 1800s

Looking for information on the Martin C. Cotton family of
Davidson Co., TN, mid-to late 1800s. Does anyoneknow if the Hattie R., age 3 in the 1860 Davidson Co. census (Martin C. Cotton household), and the Hattie, age 22, school teacher, in the 1880 census (Margaret Cotton household), is the person for whom the Hattie Cotton Elementary School in Nashville is named? In the Nashville City Directory of 1873, a Miss Tennie Cotton is listed as a school teacher at Howard School. M. C. Cotton is named as being on the Board of Education in the early Davidson Co. schools. (He died 1879.)

M. C. Cotton's name is on a couple of documents relating to my George S. Miller family in Nashville. George S. Miller was a school teacher in Davidson Co. from at least 1855, and a teacher in Franklin Co. TN before that. He died in Nashville in 1865.
