We have since located information to provide the names of the children of this couple.The daughter was Sarah Ann who married William Harris Garner.
The first of the three sons was William who married Nancy Jane Best on Oct 2, 1851. They moved to Jackson County Missouri between 1875 and 1880.They apparently are buried in the Buckner Cemetery.
The second son was James who married Mary Jane Rhea on Oct 1, 1850.They were present in Blount County in 1880 but not in 1900.Evidence points in the direction that they may moved from the Blount County TN area after 1880.
The third son was Peter who married Mary Jane Mosely on Nov 27, 1854.He apparently died during the civil war period but we do not know if he fought Confederate or Union.There were 4 Peter Headricks from this area listed as soldiers in that war.One of them was Confederate.Peter's widow lived out her life here in Blount County and is buried at Union Grove Baptist Cemetery.
If anyone can help fill in any details on their migrations, ancestors or descendants, it would be appreciated.
