1953 request for info on Elizabeth RIDER Cardin
Madisonville Democrat, (Monroe Co. TN) Thursday, October 1, 1953:
“Asks Information About Ancestors---Editor of The Democrat: I wonder if you can help me in my search for my ancestors? About 1888, my grandfather, Andrew Marshall Cardin, left Tennessee and moved to Texas. He seems to have left many relatives around Tellico Plains.
His father’s name was Alfred Cardin and the family came from North Carolina. I would very much like to know where and when.
My grandmother was Elizabeth Rider, the daughter of Alexander Rider. They lived near Athens, I believe.
I would like to contact anyone who can tell me anything of either family.”---Mrs. Hazel Daugherty, Box 252, Duncan, Arizona.
