SYKES FAMILY, DECATUR COUNTY Compiled by David L. Donahue, P.O. Box 218, Parsons, TN 38363-0218 ddonahue@netease.net Treat information as unproven. Verify before DAR or LDS submission. This is the family of Lucy J. Sykes. A second marriage for each, she married my g-g-g-grandfather Joel Rushing. I have always been curious about this family, not so much to know the identity of her Sykes husband as to know who she was before marriage to the unknown Sykes. SYKES FAMILY, DECATUR CO., TN 2 AUG 1998 1 FIRST GENERATION 1. Lucy J.[1] Sykes. Born, 15 Jun 1819. Died, 27 Jun 1896, in Garrett Com., Decatur Co., TN. Burial in Campground Cem., Decatur Co., TN.

Census: 1880, in Decatur Co., TN. She married Wylie B. Tanner, 2 Jan 1893, in Decatur Co., TN. She married, second, Joel Rushing, son of Jason Rushing and Alice Gulledge, 31 Dec 1879, in Decatur Co., TN. Born, 6 Sep 1806, in Anson Co., NC. Died, 3 Dec 1889, in Garrett Com., Decatur Co., TN. Burial in New Hope Cem., Decatur Co., TN. Occupation: Farmer/Preacher. Joel Rushing was among the last of the Rushings to move from Anson County, North Carolina, to Decatur County, Tennessee. He seems to have arrived in the Decatur County, Tennessee, area between 1845 and 1848. The census of 1850 shows him owning 500 acres in Decatur County, and he was granted an additional 160 acres in 1852. He was a charter member of the Agricultural Wheel (farmer's union) Liberty Wheel. The following stories about Joel Rushing were passed down among Moore family descendants of Leonadus Rushing, who called Joel "uncle." Joel Rushing was a lay preacher and a farmer in the Garrett community of Decatur County. If Joel Rushing had to preach a sermon on a Sunday he practiced while he plowed his field. He would be preaching hell and damnation to his mule while he practiced. Leonadus would hear him in the field and would yell out "Uncle Joel, what are you preaching on this Sunday?" That mule must have really known the Bible. Joel Rushing not only was called upon to preach sermons at various churches, but also was called upon to conduct funeral services. One time he was called upon to conduct a funeral in Linden. He started early in the morning for Perryville to take the ferry across the Tennessee River. Leonadus Rushing met Joel along the road and asked Joel where he was going. Leonadus asked Joel if he had the price to pay for the ferry ride. Joel told Leonadus that he had enough money to go one way. Leonadus thought this over a minute and then asked "Uncle Joel, how are you going to get back?" Joel answered that the Lord would take care of the fare home. The followin is the will of Joel Rushing: SYKES FAMILY, DECATUR CO., TN 2 AUG 1998 2 FIRST GENERATION "I Joel Rushing considering the uncertainty of mortal life and being in my perfect mind do make and publish my last will in manner and form as follows, to wit.
