During his life time, David researched the history of several Decatur and Henderson County families. His research provides important basic research on the history of families that now live or have lived in these two counties. Like all research, it is not perfect and is known to contain both errors and omissions. By policy, David's original research will not be updated to correct these errors but will be maintained in the state left by David. However, we are happy to publish the family research of any families connected with Decatur or Henderson County. We will also publish comments as notes to David's research. Please email me your comments and/or family research that you would like posted to this web site to Jerry L. Butler at jlb30504@gmail.com.

  2. Jesse[2] Lacy (Thomas, 1). Born, 20 Mar 1770, in Anson Co., NC. Died, before 1830, in Perry Co., TN. Census: 1820, in Perry Co., TN.

    "...Jessie Lacy married Millie Rushing.... I will say something about uncle Jessie Lacy's family. He moved from Anson County to Decatur County, Tennessee, about the year 1814. His children were mainly born in North Carolina; he had three sons, Calvin, Herman [Hiram], and William Carroll; the daughters, Nancy, Armia, and Elizabeth; if there were more daughters I do not remember them. Calvin Lacy was married in Decatur County, Tennessee, to Nancy Stephens, they had no children, a good man, did well, made money, died at the age of about sixty-eight years at Booneville, Mississippi. Herman [Hiram], a good man, filled many different offices in Decatur County. William Carroll Lacy moved to Mississippi, where he lived in Lee County, a good worthy citizen, had a respectable family, now all grown. I neglected to say that Herman Lacy and wife reared a family of sons and daughters, of whom I know very little, but presume from their father that they are respectable people. Uncle Jessie's daughters all married in Decatur County, Tennessee, where they were reared.

    "Uncle Jessie Lacy died in Decatur County, Tennessee, about 1820. He was supposed to have died in consequence of his being very fleshy, died of suffocation." [Transcription of letter written about 1890 by Stephen L. Ross, who lived in Florida, to Thomas Lacy, Denton, Texas]
