William, Adaline Fergus,Ruther. cnty,TN
I am trying to discover the fate of the children of William and Adaline Covington Fergus born in Rutherford county TN.They had 3 sons:John,(brn about 1855),James,(aka Will,brn about 1857),and Joseph,(brn about 1860).William died, Jan. 21,1862,while enlisted during the civil war. The last date in which I can find Adaline and their sons is 8/1 1870 on the Rutherford cnty TN census.I have no idea what happened to them after that. ( An important clue to this mystery is the fact that William's last name has been butchered repeatedly into Foggis,Fogus,Faugus etc.)If any one has any info. on this matter, please let me know.Thanks!
