Thomas Emory, Tennessee
There is a Thomas Emory listed on the 1880 census in Nashville, TN in prison.On a recent trip to the Nashville Archives I found the following: Thomas Emory 19 year old white male was charged with larceny and unlawfully carrying a pistol.He was charged with J.Buck Kirby.Kirby was sentenced to 2 years on a workfarm and Thomas was sentenced to 1 year.Prison records state Thomas was 5'7" 118 lbs. sandy hair and had a scar on his right leg.Single, born in TN.His sentence started April 19, 1880 and on July 22, 1880 he escaped from the Rattle Snake Mines.Does this Thomas fit anyone in your line.I am thinking he may be the brother of John and Rosanna, son of Carrol D. and Maria of the Capshaw saga but have no definate proof.Any takers???????
