Your name shows up on my January 1999 RSL Update and I am wondering if we share a common ancestor in Stephen Senter. My information is as follows:

Stephen Senter (would have to be b. around 1740 probably in Va.), m. Susannah ?. He died abt 1799 in Tenn(maybe Grainger Co.). She died around 1818 in Roane Co., Tenn. Chilldren:

1) Tandy Senter b. abt 1758 in Va., d. Oct 1864 in Roane Co., Tenn. He m. (1) Susan Lyon who bore 10 children and (2) Alice Crumbliss 8 Apr 1813 Roane Co. who bor 6 children. Susan was b. abt 1865 in Va. and died 1806/1810 in Roane Co. Alice was b. abt 1780 in Grainger Co., Tenn. I descend via the Tandy and Susan line.

2) Stephen W. Senter

3) Milton Senter or Center

I would be happy to exchange data and information with you assuming a common interest.

Sincerely, Ray Carneey Littleton, Co

Perhaps this is speculation on Ray Worth's part: (I cannot find any such marriage record)

"Roane County, TN Newspaper Abstracts 1808-1879" by Robert L. Bailey

Articles in the "Knoxville Daily Chronicle" 30 Jul 1874, 1 Aug 1874, and the "Knoxville Weekly Chronicle" 5 Aug 1874, tell about deaths by fever of the family of W. T. Rice, living on the place of Mrs. Suddath. Five deaths occured, including Mr. Rice himself, and 4 children.

One week ago, one member of the household fell at the head of death and one fell each day thereafter, until six lay under his relentless power. One only remains, a little boy abut 10 years old. ....bilious fever.

Mark, Jim FYI Posted the following this am in response to a posting on 9/05/01//310 from Joe re: a Seaborn Senter who was killed during the Civil War. Joe writes,"I noticed in your posting (5/04/01//246) that you are descended from Seaborn Senter. I am seeking information on Seaborn Senter, a sergeant in Company A, 3rd Tennessee Infantry, who enlisted at Knoxville in 1861 and was killed on a train from Manassas to Richmond. Are you related? Do you know his parents' names, where he was born, and where I might find him in the 1860 census? Thanks Joe "

Since this was information needed prior to Joe's response, I posted the following: Information needed on: Seaborn Senter b1793-prob Bedford Co VA married: Nancy Carson b:?/place?] on 28 August, 1817 in Roane Co. TN Seaborn's Father: Wm Tandy Senter b1761-? VA mar?/place? d1865 Roane Co TN. Seaborn's Mother: Wife 1-Susan Lyon b?/place? d?<Apr 1813 presumably Roane Co, TN. Seaborn Senter b1793-prob Bedford Co VA was the 4th son, 4th child of William Tandy Senter & Susan Lyon Senter). He died in 1853 and I'm not sure where he was buried. Nancy Carson [(parents unknown) b:?/place?] and Seaborn Senter were married 28 August, 1817 in Roane Co. TN. I am not sure where she was buried. I am not sure of the number or names of the children of Seaborn & Nancy Senter except for my ancestor, Albert Newton Senter b1831/place? d1879/place? If you have any information regarding dates, places, siblings, etc., it would be greatly appreciated.

Notes for TANDY S. RICE: 3. Tandy S. Rice - Born about 1802. Married Lucinda "Sindy" Senter, December 25, 1821. Don't know why he would have been called a "minor" in 1823! Especially since he was already married. Lucinda died and is buried in Rice-Netherland cemetery, McMinn County. He then married this Indiana P. ??? who sued him for divorce in 1861, and he died before 1863.
