Not related.......just a lookup
I just ran accross this marriage record record and thought it might offer more clues......or maybe just more questions.
Tennessee State Marriages, 1780-2002
Name: Minus K Mangrum
Spouse: Miss O J Nix
Marriage Date: 29 Sep 1874
Marriage County: Moore
Marriage State: Tennessee
Although indexed as Minne K Mangrum....I viewed the original marriage license and it is Minus K. Mangrum and Miss O. J. Nix.Are you sure your Ophelia Hicksmarried in the 1890's?This sure looks like a good possible. The surname Nix is also spelled Nicks......aka Hicks????? just maybe?
Then I find Minus is still living for the 1890 census:
Tennessee Census, 1810-91
Name: Minus Mangum
State: TN
County: Moore County
Township: Dist. 10 Male Voters
Year: 1891
Page: 079
Database: TN 1891 Voters List
Finally found them on the 1880 TN, Franklin Co, census
spelling is off but you can tell its them. Census taker probably couldnt read his own writing for Minus.
indexed as Wales Mangnna...it reads as:
Mangrum, Miles26 bn TN
, Ofela J. 27 bn TN
*No children are listed in this household.*
The spelling is iffy for the entry above also.....probably his dad as the same children are in the h/h as on the 1860 & 1870 census.On this 1880 census he is 'indexed' as Frank Mangrum.....but it reads Grant Mangrum......BUT his name was really Greenberry Mangrum.So much for the correctness of this census.
Hope something here is of help
