Thanks Mike for your response.
My great-grandfather, Hugh Thomas Kennedy was married to Jane B. West and had 7 children:
Joseph Harvy Kennedy, b 1847, d 1923
Lucresa A. Kennedy, b 1849, d 1925
James P. Kennedy, b 1851, d 1895 (typhoid)
William H. Kennedy, b 1853, d 1864
Martha Callie Kennedy, b 1856, d 1894 (typhoid)
Hugh Festus Kennedy, b 1858, d 1913(malaria)
Mary Louise Kennedy, b 1861, d 1895 (typhoid)
Most of the deaths were related to Typhoid Fever, although my Grandfather, Hugh Festus, is reported to have died of Malaria which he had suffered with for many years.
This information came from research by my cousin about 20 years ago.I have found a number of errors in dates and spelling while doing my research.A lot of the data came from the old family bible of Hugh Thomas.In the bible, Lucresa was spelled Lue Cress A.
As I had mentioned before, I am trying to identify Hugh Thomas' father and exactly where he came from before Lincoln county Tennessee, if he was actually there.
I hope this is of some value to you.
