Lewis was licensed to marry Charlotte Padfield in Greene County, North Carolina June 19, 1788 (Greene County Marriage Records 1780-1836). James Tadlock is listed as signing security for this marriage.
The earliest record of Lewis in Washington County, Tennessee appears to be in 1787, when he signed the a petition to the legislature of North Carolina (formation of the State of Franklin). Further records reflect that he transferred a land claim to Thomas Tadlock shortly before Oct 22, 1789. On Oct 14, 1794 he acquired certain lands from James Blair (Washington County Deed Book 6, pg 26) and on Aug 30, 1808 he purchased from James Blair 296 acres ("... in line between said counties (Washington and Greene) on the headwaters of Lick Creek ...") and adjoining tracty from Mary Blair, his mother in law (Jan 12, 1809 Greene County Deed Book 8).
Lewis' name appears in the 1814 Tax List of Washington County, Tennessee, also in Captain Corathers Company of Militia.
I have portions of Lewis' will on file. It was dated May 30, 1815 and probated in August of 1815. In his will, he makes provisions for his son John, his wife (shown as Jean in the will) and the five youngest children in her care (Severe and Carter indicated as the youngest sons), son Edward, son James (named as his second son), son John, and two son in laws ... Jesse Mullins (Elizabeth's husband) and Michael Martin (Mary's husband). His will names his wife (again shown as Jean) and son John as executors. There appears to have been a "falling out" with son Edward as he receives only a minimal share ($10).
Barnett was married 3 times that I can trace, and possibly maybe a 4th. Initial suggestions of his ancestry were from the works of Robert Tadlock, later worked by his son Stan Tadlock. Some verification of the lines can be had by looking at a few census documents ... in example: 1850, and 1860, 1870, and 1880 for Miller, Scotland County, Missouri. You will also find tyhat his father (James T. Tadlock) is living with him in 1870 and 1880).
Consensus of other researchers with whom I share data is that James Monroe Tadlock is the son of Barnet and Rebecca. None of us can account for why his name does not appear in any State for 1870 or 1880, much less not attached to Barnett. But he is recorded in the Schuyler County records for marrying Martha Titus in Schuyler County in 1884. It would seem that he was with another family (possibly) in 1870 and out on his own working in 1880 ... and not recorded. I believe his absence is at least partially attributable to the fact his mother died (or departed) very shortly after his birth. It isn't the first time any of us have encountered "missing" census reports for known people.
I can reasonably account for the sons of Barnett's brothers, even those with birth dates close to 1864 and those with names using J. M. or James. Whether by Barnett or one of his brothers, the link seems established that he descended from Barnett's father James T. Tadlock. Barnett seems the most probable and in the absence of any finite evidence at the present, is carried in my file as his son.
