Notes:

Hume Bailey was a devoted Union sympathizer during the Civil War. Since he was a widower with young sons, he was exempted by the Union army from service (Ft. Smith being a Union stronghold in an otherwise Confederate state). However, the Confederate army, when it moved into that part of Arkansas forced him to enlist on the threat of death. Susan Dickson says that he may have enlisted and then deserted at the first opportunity.

In the compiled service records, there are two jackets for H.F. Bailey, but no firm places are listed and the service appears to have been short in the Confederate army in any case. More research is needed.

Interestingly, there are a number of letters written to Hume F. Hill of Memphis, TN. These appear to be an uncle of Hume F. Bailey - the brother of his mother, perhaps.

I have another fact showing that Hume was granted guardianship on 17 Oct 1876 in the court at Greenwood. However, this document shows that he was granted guardianship of Philip D. Brewer, a minor under the age of 14, on 30 March 1868 in Fort Smith.

Notes:

Lived in AR, around Polk county. Had a saw mill with Zenas TENNYSON. Bill died of blood poisoning. He got a splinter building a table. His wife took the splinter out with a needle. He then went on that day to butcher a hog. Perhaps he got infected then.

1870 Census lists him as Wm. J.B. Tennison and says he was born in Alabama.

Why does this say Yell County? I thought he lived around Polk County. In 1880, he was in Pike County.

Notes:

Mary Susan Druscilla was 16 when she was married. The marriage to John W.B. Tennyson was not well thought of by either set of parents. To solve the problem of no consent, they sent a black man to the courthouse to get the marriage license. When he came back with it,they just crossed out the race, changed it to white, and got married.This marriage record has not yet been found, but it could be recorded as either black or white. Her first marriage could have been in Choctaw or Pontotoc Co, MS. After J.W.B. Tennyson died, she remarried to Mr. Phillips. He was not well liked by the first family and was regarded as a mean person by his stepchildren.

Ref: [,1970,gm1]

Birth:
Her second marriage lists that she was about 30 years old.

Census:
The 1900 census lists her as Susan Phillips and her children Frank and Larkin as Phillips, though they retained the name Tennyson. She is listed as widowed, born Feb 1858 in Mississippi. She had had 5 children, 4 of whom are still living. All of these facts match the rest of what we know about her already.

Residence:
"Mrs. M.S. Phillips has returned from Lancaster, where she went to visit her father J.W. Deshazo."
