    Notes:

    correspondence from Wilma Moore was posted to a familytreemaker site: "P.S. When you do get to Smith Co. research, you may want to order from TN State Library/Archives this roll of microfilm...if they will send it to you. I located it through the archives section. It is Microfilm Accession
    Number 1141 (one reel) titled "Lovelady-Parker Families Papers 1802-1902 ca 150 items. There is a lot of interesting information on this reel. It pertains to John Lovelady and some descendants. Apparently, they fought
    and fought and fought. No doubt it has been more peaceful for your family that they retreated to the hills of Arkansas!"
