One other interesting point: The data at the Mormon
Family Search web site lists one other son of Joseph
Dabbs and Judith Tankersley -- that being one Joseph Jr
(let's call him Joseph III) born c.1784.
This too is very encouraging, because my Richard
Dabbs of Hardeman Co., TN seems to have been related
somehow to a Joseph Dabbs who also lived in Hardeman.
In this case, this is the Joseph Dabbs who died in
1845, shortly after he moved his "black family"
to Pope Co., IL. Joseph was a Southern Abolitionist.
Edwin Dabbs, son of George Dabbs of Limestone Co. AL,
grandson of Richard Dabbs Sr. and Elizabeth Foster,
shows up to serve as the administrator of Joseph's
estate.
I also note that in the Hardeman Co. tax records,
the same piece of land appears to float freely between
the names Joseph and Richard Dabbs.
I think it is safe to say that my Richard Dabbs,
who married Elizabeth Harper in 1826, Hardeman Co. TN,
is closely related to both Joseph and Edwin.
Furthermore, I am really leaning toward concluding
that my Richard was indeed the brother of Joseph III,
and son of Joseph II and Judith Lucy Tankersley.
