Hi, Cousins, So glad to see the website. Kudos!! But I do have a correction and addition to this part of the fact sheet. "George married a Scroggins. They raised their family in the Wolf River area of Fentress County. They had a son, Mills, who had a son George who lived in Brooksville, Florida." George married Mary A Busato and they had 6 children: ANDERSON G. TINCH(August 04, 1842), ELIZABETH TINCH (December 25, 1845), NANCY M. TINCH (January 14, 1848), ANGELINA M. TINCH (January 28, 1850), MILLS WELLS TINCH (December 20, 1860), AMANDAILE C. TINCH (August 08, 1864). Mills Wells is my ggrandfather. He is the one that married Martha Jane Scroggins. (I have seen her name recorded as Mary Jane and Mary Ann) The 1880 census record and family bible says Martha Jane.) According to my info they had two children, although very recently I saw a record that said there were three: IRA ASBURY TINCH (July 27,1883), SHERMAN OSLO TINCH (December 17, 1885) These are the only ones in the family Bible. The third child in the recent find is ROSCOE. Right now I do not have the reference. I can't believe that I did not record where it was. I will keep looking. Martha Jane died abt 1886 and Mills Wells married my Ggrandmother Rose (Rosie) Ann Day on January 02, 1893. Her name has been recorded as Rosa Ann Day and Rosa Ann Allen but on her marriage certificate her name is recorded as Rose A. Day. Mills and Rosie had 12 children: JOEL MILLORD TINCH (September 08, 1893), ADEN LOVELL TINCH (October 24, 1895), NOLA VIOLA TINCH (June 01, 1897), MARY ELLA TINCH (March 13, 1900), MITCHELL ELBERT TINCH (June 07, 1902), GEORGE DAVID TINCH, my grandfather (March 07, 1904), JOHNIE ETSIE TINCH (female, February 06, 1906), HENRY VIRGIL TINCH (November 20, 1907), SARAH JANET TINCH (November 07, 1909), JESSE WILEY TINCH (August 13, 1912),GOLDA GLADYS TINCH (June 30, 1915), MARTHA EMMER TINCH (September 29,1918) My grandfather, George David Tinch first married my Grandmother, Myrtle Eppley, daughter of John and Carrie(Caroline) Schmidt Eppley (Conner)--she married again after Grandpa John Eppley died). John and Carrie had three children: PAUL NORMAN TINCH (April 13, 1926), MARK STERLING TINCH (May 10, 1928), JUNE CHRISTINE TINCH, my mother (February 28, 1930). As of this writing 8/2006 Uncle Paul and my mother are both deceased. Uncle Mark is still very much alive. Grandma Myrtle died of TB January 16, 1939. She grew up in an orphanage and contracted the disease there. When I get time, I will write some more detail and send it to you. My mother was eight when her mother died and soon thereafter Grandpa George David Tinch married DOLLIE MAE SHEFFIELD. January 02, 1940. They had six children, all but one are still alive. JOYCE ANN TINCH, DAVID JAMES TINCH (May 30, 1944-August 01, 1996), JEWEL TINCH, JANNETTE TINCH. Grandpa George David did die in Florida May 12, 1969 but both of his families were born up North in Ohio and Indiana. His second family all moved to Fla. eventually. Even my mom and dad lived down there 10 years after they retired and Mom died there. More later.
