THE GLEAVES FAMILY
Much has already been written about the Gleaves Family. Dennis Glaves, a Vietnam Veteran, has
meticulously compiled a book ‘The Descendants of Matthew Glave – the Glaves/Gleaves Family in
America’. For more on this work refer to the Gleaves Family Association website found at
www.GleavesFamily.com.
This is an incomplete record of this family…researched by this writer over the past several years.
Due to writer’s age, no further research is to be made.
Dr. E. L. Gleaves’ letter of June 2, 1925, detailing information relayed to him by J. Miller Turner,
deceased, was the first of the records accumulated over the years.1
LETTER of JUNE 2, 19252
(by J. MILLER TURNER …facts from Dr. Edgar Lee Gleaves3)
The original family by the name of GLEAVES came from Willingham 4, England to America the exact
date being unknown. Several years prior to the Colonial War, they settled in Virginia near Roanoke,
where several descendants still live. The first one of the family to come to Tennessee was MIKE
GLEAVES15 (MICHAEL) who came to the Boone Settlement in Northern Kentucky, from there to
Mansker’s Fort situated about 14 miles north of what is now Nashville, Tennessee. The Fort was built
in the fork of a stockade on Mansker’s Creek at a large spring on what is now the boundary line
between Davidson & Sumner Counties, about one and one-half miles northeast of Cumberland River.
This settlement was under the command of Captain Donelson. There was also at this fort a Dr. Sam
Johnson, noted frontiersman of that date. MIKE GLEAVES1 at that time entered the Colonial Army
and fought at the Battle of Kings Mountain in 1780, after which he returned to Fort Mansker with his 2
negro servants and there married a lady named RACHEL, last name unknown to the writer. This
1
Letter sent by William W. Gleaves of Eugene, Oregon on July 11, 1984, to Robert M. Allen. June Novick of Ocala, Fla.
sent a copy to Hilda H. Barnes (HHB) in April 1999 and she re-copied it in April 1999 with some additions noted. All
routes this letter has taken are not documented.

James T. Gleaves Letter
Another letter came to my attention (perhaps thru the descendants of Clyde M. Gleaves)… from Mr.
James T. ‘Jim T.’ Gleaves - (written when he was 88 years of age).
As a child and young girl 53, I knew ‘JIM T.’ as he was affectionately known in the Hermitage,
Tennessee Community. Little did I know he was related to me. But I might have known he was, as so
many people in the community were related to my father’s or my mother’s people…and the fact my
mother called all the Gleaves ‘cuzzins’. My great-grandmother was Martha Ann Virginia Gleaves
Jenkins, daughter of James Robertson Gleaves. Jim T’s father was Robert Hughes Gleaves, Martha
Ann’s brother (also a son of James Robertson Gleaves.). Much of the land my father owned and
farmed was purchased from Gleaves families or heirs.
LETTER
Sept. 28, 1933
TO: Mr. Clyde M. Gleaves54
FROM: James T. Gleaves55
Dear Clyde:
As per your request thru Bennie Bright, I will try to write you up a ‘Family Tree’, as best I can.
I may make some errors, as my memory has become somewhat treacherous. I am not able to tell you
much about the BROOKS family, your maternal ancestors. As I remember, your grandfather, Mose
Brooks, Sr. had 2 sons, James and Joe Brooks, and I think, 3 daughters, Mollie Creel, John Lloyd’s
wife, whose given name I have forgotten, and Alice, your mother.
Regarding the GLEAVES family, I will state that your great-great-grandfather, Thomas
Gleaves, was married in the year 178556 to a daughter of Felix Robertson, who was a brother of James
Robertson, the founder of Nashville, Tennessee. Felix Robertson was a lawyer, statesman and
philanthropist, a great and noted man.
THOMAS GLEAVES1 raised 5 boys57:
1. William B. Gleaves
2. James Robertson, your grandfather58
3. John Gleaves
4. Felix Gleaves
5. Max Gleaves59
6. Frank Gleaves
53
Hilda H. Hagar Barnes
born 1880 – died 1962

born 1845 – died 1945
56
HHB: Thomas m. Sallie Smith in 1797. Is it possible he was married twice? Or was Sallie first a Robertson and first
married to a SMITH…then later married Thomas Gleaves? Or is this letter-writer confused on dates? Thomas did name a
son, James Robertson Gleaves!!! Has any one found a marriage record of 1785 to a “Miss Robertson? Note also that
Thomas’ father, William B, married in May 1770….and Thomas was born in March 1771… In 1785 he would have been
only 14! Therefore a marriage as early as 1785 is improbable).
57
HHB: correction: it was 6. William B. was omitted by Jim T.

I will now tell you something of the BAKER side of your ancestry, which I think will interest you.
James Baker, my grandfather, (your great grandfather) was born in North Carolina, Dec. 10, 1788 and
died in the 4th District of Davidson County, Tenn, Nov. 7, 1866. He married Annie Sanders, who was
born in South Carolina, May 7, 1792 and died in Davidson County, Tennessee, Nov. 27, 1890.
James (Baker) while a young man, bought a mule of some one who lived in S. C. The said
mule broke out of the pasture and made his way back to the place of his nativity. James made a trip
down there on hunt of his mule. While in S. C. he stopped one night with a Mr. Sanders, who had an
attractive daughter named Annie. He fell desperately in love with said Annie and subsequently married
her. They decided to come to Tennessee, which was then a new country.
They had a little money, but not enough to buy another horse to go with the one they had, so
granddaddy ‘hoofed it’, his wife riding the horse, all the way from S. C. to Nashville, Tennessee They
landed in Nashville with only $40 and the horse. They rented a farm near what is known as Flat Rock,
on the Murfreesboro Pike, not very far from what is now Antioch. The farm was a very fertile one, but
had no house on it except a little log cabin with no floor - the whole earth was the only floor. They
drove forks in the ground, put poles in the forks, and in cracks of the walls, thus making bed stead on
62

17
which they put straw for a mattress. They had 1 stew pot, and a skillet, which constituted their cooking
vessels. Having no plates, they both ate from the cooking vessels, with only a pocket knife and a
wooden fork.
The old man made bumper crop that year and in a few years made money and bought the farm.
Subsequently he swapped this farm for the one on Stones River, where he lived the balance of his days.
In swapping farms, he received a pony and a silk bandana handkerchief to boot. The handkerchief was
about 30 inches square, and in those days considered valuable, worth some $20 to $25.
They raised 11 children, 3 sons and 8 daughters:
1. William D. Baker, born 1812
2. Jefferson Baker born 1814 (died while a young man-never married).
3. Rose Anna born 1816
4. Francis ‘Frank’ born 1818
5. Sarah, married Bill Ballentine, born 1820
6. Nancy, married John R. Evans, born 1822
7. Susan, born 1824. Died before grown
8. Mary T. (my mother) born June 15, 1826
9. Elizabeth, born 1828, married John E. Wright
10. Emily, born 1829, died before grown
11. Delilah, born 1831, married William C. Gleaves.
These have all passed away.
William D. Baker reared 8 children, all dead except Howell, who resides at Watertown, Tennessee.
He is the father of Robert H. Baker, who was Highway commissioner under Horton’s administration.
He has 1 daughter in Mt. Juliet, the wife of Bro. Howard McFarlin. Each of grandfather Baker’s
children raised families, but most of them are dead.
Uncle Billie, as I above stated, has 1 living child, Howell Baker.
Jefferson never married.
Aunt Rose Anna had 4 sons, all dead but one. And 2 daughters, both dead.
Uncle Frank has 5 boys, all dead. 6 girls - all dead but 1. Charity, now 91 years old.
Aunt Nancy Evans had 1 son and 6 girls - 3 girls are living.
Aunt Sarah Ballentine had 2 girls and 5 boys - all dead.
Mary my mother, 1 girl and 2 sons., I the only living one.
Aunt Lizzie Wright had 1 son and 2 girls. One girl living.
Aunt Delilah Gleaves, 3 girls and 1 son - The son still lives.
I believe this is about all that is necessary for me to say. If I have left out any point that you would like
to have, write me, and if possible I will attend to it.
I might add that Old Grandfather Baker had 3 brothers who followed him to Tennessee viz:
William, Hiram and John. William and John did well - raised families and accumulated nice
property. Hiram did no good and died a pauper. Uncle John was killed by Federal Soldiers during the
Civil War - while guarding his watermelon patch. I might also tell you that both my grandfather and
grandmother (Bakers) met tragic deaths. The old man was fox hunting, he went through a gate, his
stirrup caught on the latch, the horse jumped, broke the girth and threw him, which subsequently
resulted in death. Grandmother stepped on a corn cob which rolled and threw her against stair steps,
which afterwards resulted in death. You will note that Granddaddy Baker died age 77 yrs. 6 mo. and
22 days. Grandmother Baker died aged 98 years, 6 months and 29 days.

DEAR CLYDE:
In writing about the Gleaves Family, I forgot to tell you that James R. Gleaves, my grandfather, had 2
sisters, 64 Emiline and Elizabeth.
Emiline married old man Jimmie Wright, who owned and lived on a farm just west of your
grandfather Brooks. She had no children.
Elizabeth65 married a Mr. Hill and moved to Arkansas. She had 2 sons, William and Felix,
one daughter Minervia
, who married Filander Owen, and raised 2 sons and two daughters.
Grandmother Baker had 2 sisters who came West after grandfather & wife came. One of her
sisters, Nancy, married Hiram Baker, a brother of Grandfather Baker. The other sister, whose name I
have forgotten, married some man in Huntsville, Ala. I have forgotten his name. Grandmother &
Grandfather used to make a trip on horseback once in a while to Huntsville to visit her sister. These
trips were made before her family grew to be so large.
How would it look now to see a woman start out horseback on such a trip? People would
pronounce her crazy.

Gleaves Family Explained
How is the Michael Gleaves family related to ‘other’ Gleaves families
in Davidson County, Tennessee?
It is known for a certainty that one Thomas Gleaves came into Davidson County from Virginia
in 1797 (married Sallie Smith). He was the son of William B. Gleaves (born abt. 1748) & Elizabeth
Turk Gleaves of Wythe County, Virginia.
The following may be the ancestry of both William B. Gleaves (born 1740/48) & Michael Gleaves1:

Several researchers have been actively looking for answers to the Gleaves Heritage. There are
variations in some of their findings.
June Novick72 shows dates of birth of above as:
Matthew1: born about 1710; d. abt. 1760
(wife, Esther Mitchell born abt. 1720; died abt.1808)
Mary: born Jun 12, 1746
William B.: born about 1748; died May 1820, Wythe County, Virginia.
Matthew2: born about 1750; died abt. 1771 (see below)
Esther: born about 1754
Elizabeth: born about 1758
Michael1: born about 1760; married abt.1788; died about 181473
Chalkey II, page 400 ‘Fee book of 1760’. William Gleaves states in Bill of Complaint that his
father died in 1760; William was appointed guardian for Esther Glaves, orphan of Matthew,
dec. (Chalkey I, page 163)74
Chalkey I, page 402: ‘ Matthew75 apprenticed to John Finley Jan. 24, 1775’76
Note from ? - ‘Matthew Gleaves77 assigns John Marley, a servant from Ireland on the
(ship) Snow George - to serve 4 yrs. from Sept. 22 – Date Oct. 9, 1745’
BY HILDA H. BARNES: My thinking at present :
1. William (B.) Gleaves was a son of Matthew1 & Esther (and a grandson of THOMAS). William
died in Virginia in 1820. THREE of his sons, THOMAS1 (born March 18, 1771); MATTHEW3
(born Nov. 9, 1772) and ABSALOM (born Sept. 5, 1781) came to Tennessee & settled in the
Hermitage, Tennessee area - not too many miles from the Jones’ Bend where their UNCLE, Michael1
had already settled (all in Davidson County). Brothers Thomas1 and Absalom were prominent in the
Hermitage area, settling around what is known in 2004 as the Central Pike – Old Hickory Blvd. area.
(The other 2 sons, William, (born 1777- died before 1820) and James Turk Gleaves (born 1788) did

died by 1811 – See Davidson County Will Book 3 & 4, page 155
74
HHB: William B. Gleaves born ca 1748 would have been only 12….a different William…?? Or…was William B. born
earlier than 1748?
75
Matthew, son of Matthew

HHB: this means he did NOT die in 1771 as some have indicated
77
HHB: must be Matthew1 1720 – 1740

not move to Tennessee. It is known that Thomas1 (born March 18, 1771) married in Davidson
County, on March 13, 1797 and his brother Absalom married in Wythe County, Virginia, Aug. 18,
1803.
NOTE : William (B.) Gleaves (born 1740-48)78 gave two of his sons the names of:
THOMAS1 (born March 18, 1771) and MATTHEW3 (born Nov. 9, 1772 and died in
Davidson County, Tennessee abt. Jan. 1805).
2. Michael Gleaves1 –also a son of Matthew1 & Esther and William (B’s) brother - born ca
1760(??) came to Tennessee-PERHAPS as early as 1788 –settling in Jones’ Bend - died in Davidson
County, in 1811.
NOTE : Michael Gleaves1 also named two of his sons THOMAS2 (born ca 1789) and
MATTHEW4 (born abt. 1793 and married at the time of his father’s will in 1811).
This is an example of 2 brothers - giving their sons the names of their grandfather & great-grandfather.
What difference could it make if they had similar names? William lived in Virginia and Michael1 in
Tennessee. There was probably little communication. And the children would probably never know
each other – living so far away. How wrong they were!! These ‘cousins’ spent the greater part of their
lives in the same general area.
There is little doubt in my mind of the relationship of the first Matthew1 (1725); the first Michael1
(1754); the first Thomas1 (1771), - to the first William(1748). Quite a bit of information has been
assembled on William’s line thru his sons Thomas1, Matthew3 and Absalom. Only the first
generation of the families of William, Jr. (Sept. 22, 1777) and James Turk Gleaves (Feb. 26, 1788)
has been assembled.
An attempt will be made to outline my accumulation of Gleaves information. If I infringe upon
information from Dennis Glaves or others, I will attempt to credit them.

 Bible of William G. Gleaves 1818 listed

 Information for this family may be
questionable. There is another William
Gleaves son of Michael2, but he was born
after 1812. Therefore the marriage record
of 1808 does not belong to him. However,
Michael2’s son appears to have died before
1844. Refer to Supreme Court Records of

ASH: Original manuscript of this book showed William D. Gleaves as the son of Michael Gleaves and the Bible as
belonging to Willam G. Gleaves. When trying to reconcile the differences, the following was provided by HHB:
1) A typed note from an unknown source with no date shows in Will Book 12:
 William D. Gleaves inventory is recorded 1840-43 page 124-144
 James M. Gleaves inventory, page 250
 Mathew Gleaves settlement on page 345
I do not have the information contained in those pages; so some other person has seen the "D"
2) Kenneth Thomson of Cross Plains, TN, said that William Gleaves' middle initial is not "D" as most of our records show.
He does not think William had a middle initial,.but William did have a nephew named William D. Gleaves.
3) Dennis Glaves (p.89 of his book) does not show William with an initial.
ASH: The initial ‘D’ is being retained for this book.
88
Virginia Melton: It is not known at this time if Ann and Polly Wilson were kin
89
William named 3 grandchildren “Smiths” in his Will upon their coming of age 21

I am unable to locate their names in The Halsey Book, but that doesn’t mean they don’t belong there. I feel sure they do.
I have wondered how they came from a prominent family in N. Y. to be living in Wythe County, Virginia. They could be tied
in with STEPHEN HALSEY who apparently lived in Wythe County Virginia. at one time…..John Trigg Halsey born in
Wythe County Virginia. (date not shown). Perhaps this is where the Halsey girls (Catherine and Sarah) met Absalom
Gleaves and Jacob Harkreader.
150
Hilda H. Barnes’ mother, Nova Jenkins Hagar, is a descendant of the Gleaves family…as well as the Harkreader family.

HHB: This almost verifies what I had always thought: That he died before New Hope Baptist Church was formed in Nov
1846. We do not know the exact date of his death, but it was before April 1849. Several of his family were active in this
church but his name is not found in the records. Since he wrote his Will on Dec 5, 1846, he may have been ill and unable to
participate in church activities.

COMMENTS on Thomas B. Gleaves Family:
 Hilda Barnes has 10 typewritten pages titled ‘In Search for Gleaves’ by Lois
D. Gleaves174. It is not dated but believe I received it in 1997. It pertains to
the family of William B. Gleaves.
 Also received was military record of Thomas B. Gleaves, born in Dyer County,
(which is incorrect) age 27 farmer, volunteered Mar 25, 1865 in Chicago, Ill.
‘the soldier is credited to the town of Mayfields, DeKalb County, Illinois’ He
was in G company of the 10 Inf.` He was discharged as a private on Jun 14,
1865 at camp near Arlington, Virginia. By reason of disability. Disability
existed prior to enlistment. Aneurysm of aorta of stomach. Jul 29/39 (don’t
understand this date).
 She sent a photo of two cemetery markers: Thomas B. Gleaves 1830-1911 and
Nancy Ann Gleaves 1844-1912 from Brookside Cemetery near Grimes,
Oklahoma
 I believe most of the research on this family was made by Earl and Lois D.
Gleaves, probably as early as 1984.
 Glen Gleaves of Sayre, Oklahoma says:
o Glen is grandson of Thomas B. Gleaves.
o Thomas B. Gleaves chased Lucinda’s killer to the panhandle of
Oklahoma, caught up with him and hanged him there. Thomas
returned to Tennessee and married Nancy Ann Burnham.
o T. B. had long white hair and a long white mustache.
o Glen plays a fiddle; Andy played a fiddle. Glen saw Andy on TV back
in the 1960s playing a fiddle somewhere.
o He says Dave Gleaves had 3 boys and 2 girls. Youngest son had 4 boys
and 3 girls. Youngest son killed in WWI.
 Thomas B. homesteaded in Grimes County, Oklahoma in 1906 – 160 acres.
o Appl. #18589 Oct 15, 1906, Lawton, Oklahoma Land office.
o Homestead location: 3 miles West of Grimes, Oklahoma
 Brookside Cemetery: 10 miles N.W. of Sayre, Oklahoma, near Grimes,

A Feb 1860(?) Mortality Census of
Davidson County, Tennessee shows death
of an Adeline F. Gleaves, of Milk Fever at
age 30. I cannot reconcile this
information….since she had daughter born
1851 & 1853, it has to be from the 1860
census. John R’s wife is ‘Adelian’ on the
1850 census. BUT, he had remarried to
Ligon in 1856. They could have been
divorced, but not likely. (The Tennessee
Baptist publication of 1844-1862 : ‘Ann P.
F. Gleaves, wife of John R. Gleaves died
Jan 6, 1857. She was born Mar 22, 1837.’)
(1860 Census: Wife is shown as Elizabeth.)
A letter from ‘Jim T’ Gleaves to Clyde M.
Gleaves in 1933 states:
o ‘John R. was married to Adline
Jackson – had children: Jackson
Monroe and John Taylor; Cordelia
and Nancy. The said John R. was
AFTERWARD three times married.
o His 2nd wife was Mackie
Ligon…had 1 son.
o His 3rd wife: Elizabeth McSpedden
 Sons:
 Willie;
 Thos;
 Sam K.;
 Lonnie‘ &
 Ollie
 daughters 2 (no names),
o His 4th wife, never knew’.
Soon after the death of Adeline Jackson
Gleaves, John Robertson Gleaves moved to
Memphis.
He served in the Army for the Confederate
States of America. He was wounded in the
hand during the Battle of Shiloh,
Tennessee.
After the war, he moved on to Texas

ASH: While indexing this book, a discrepancy was found with Elizabeth Gleaves HILL family. As a result, the footnote
was added to Thomas Hill, who had originally been listed as Thomas Peyton Hill. Since then,
HHB has replied: I was looking in my Cemetery book and was looking at the small list in the Thomas Gleaves Cemetery in
Hermitage, Tn. (the one the Gleaves group cleaned up in March 2005.). I found:
Peyton R. Hill....b. Nov. 10, 1828 d. Sept. 30, 1846. In memory of Peyton R., son of Robert S. and Elizabeth Hill.. NOTE:
he was NOT alive for the 1850 census - so he is NOT the same as Robert, age 19. (b.1830-31) in the 1850 census. So..o..o..
it appears there WAS a Peyton as well as Thomas. Note parents married 12/15/1825......Seems they had 4 sons. (wonder
what his middle name was?)

FGN:: “-One experience I remember about her, Mary Dee: The women prisoners faked a fight in the restroom. Aunt
Mary Dee went to stop the fight and they locked the door from the inside and almost beat her to death. Uncle Jack, who at
that time was guarding near the kitchen, came out and broke the door down to get in to save her. She was hospitalized after
the incident. I also remember her coming to see us and although I was only about 13 at the time, I was told not to get behind
her. She always sat near a wall and was observant of everything and everyone in the room.”

 ‘Mrs. Malissa Telford signed my 296 birth
certificate as ‘Mid-Wife’. I was barely 10
years of age when she died but I recall
accompanying my mother on visits to her
home quite often. She lived about ½ mile
across the woods. She was known to me as
‘Aunt Lissie’. Her unmarried daughter,
Annie, lived with her. If one needed help, it
was the custom to ring the dinner bell for a
lengthy period of time. This was their S.O.S.
Farmers dropped whatever they were doing
to help a neighbor in distress. I still vividly
recall hearing her dinner bell across the
woods from our home the day in 1931 when
her daughter, Annie, died.’

only 1 yr and had twin daughters: Bertha and Lillian A. (born 1909). He was same age as the Benjamin Gleaves above, but
information above indicates Ella Ruth died 10/1/1962.—unless perhaps they were divorced??) (Or…it is a different

LETTER: From Thomas Gleaves1:
Feb. 7, 1846
State of Tennessee, Davidson County
Dear Brother and Sister:
Feb. 7, 1846
I take my pen in hand to inform you of my troubles and loss of friends. Last July about the 20th
of the month JANE RAMSEY STAMP was brought to bed with twin children her and children all
died. The same day my son WILLIAM B. GLEAVE’s wife was put to bed and had a young daughter
born and flooded fainted and died in seven hours the child lived and is doing well. More troubles I
have seen many a merry Christmas but the last balanced (?) for all.
My beloved companion departed this life on the 24th of December last and was buried on the
th
25 Christmas Day. Her complaint was inflammation of the stomach she suffered three weeks and
departed. During this time I was down with a sore leg is perfectly well at present. I went to the grave
when we buried her. It being a cool day I took the Pleurisy(?) and I am not clear of it yet. I believe
with care I shall recover again. I am almost a little at preasant and hope to recover. Sally left me at a
short notice did not have much conversation with her. Her breath would not admit more than two or
three words at a time. I am hard of hearing she called for Nancy Ann and desired us all to leave the
room. She informed her that she was going to rest. And told her what to do with her closing and asked
her if she was a going to get married Nancy Jane answered she was, and accordingly was married on
the 20 of January to Mr. Cherry west of my farm half mile.
I have no house keepers but the black girls I am obliged to attend to myself Frank said he
will get a wife to keep house shortly then I will be at liberty if my wife had lived until the 23 of May
next she would have been 70 years of age. And if she had lived until the 16th day of March next we
would have been married fifty years.
The conn____?
is all well except bad coals. You must write to me and let me hear from you all,
nothing
at preasant but
in your loving brother until death. Jas you will please answer my
letter at the receipt of this

Absalom Gleaves
 6th child of William Benjamin Gleaves &
Elizabeth Turk
 Born Sep 5, 1781 Wythe or Montgomery
County, Virginia
 Married Catherine Halsey Aug 18, 1803
Wythe County, Virginia
 Absalom was a Magistrate and performed
many marriages in the Hermitage, Davidson
County, Tennessee area
 Died Sep 18, 1834 Hermitage, Davidson
County, Tennessee
 Absalom and Catherine are buried on their
homestead in a small private cemetery,
Central Pike, Hermitage, Davidson County,
Tennessee
Sp: Catherine Halsey
 Born ca 1784 (unknown). Some say in
Wythe County, Virginia
 The Halsey family 360 was originally from
New York361
Only Basic Information has been included in compiling this record…copied from Family Group Records prepared by the
writer over the past 25 or more years, as well as from census records,etc.
360
The HALSEY family is recorded in a 500 page book entitled “THOMAS HALSEY And HIS DESCENDANTS IN
AMERICA” - Thomas Halsey of Hertfordshire, England & Southampton, Long Island, 1591-1679, with his American
Descendants to the 8th and 9th Generations. Published 1895 in Morristown, N. J. by Jacob Lafayette Halsey and Edmund
Drake Halsey. (This volume is obtainable thru Stacey’s Book Search, 5712 Sweetwater NW, Albuquerque, N. Mex. 87120
at a cost of $51.00.) Regrettably the genealogy ends in 1895, with no mention of Catherine Halsey or her sister, Sarah
Halsey, who married another Wythe County resident (Jacob Harkreader) and later moved to the same general area (Mt.
Juliet).
The writer’s Grandmother was given this family-name.- Halsey . She used the spelling as “Halsie”. Her full name was
Mary Jane Halsie Hamilton (Jenkins).
361
From June Novick, Jan 25, 2009: There is more current information available on the Internet and in a booklet I picked up
in Southampton a few years ago.
Regarding the Thomas Halsey information in Hilda's book: The Thomas Halsey of Hertfordshire book by Jacob
LaFayette Halsey and Edmund Drake Halsey was published in 1895 and while it was well done and somewhat documented
for that century, the information regarding the birth and parentage of Thomas, the immigrant to Lynn, Massachusetts and
settler to Southampton, Long Island, New York, has been proven to be inaccurate by the Thomas Halsey Family Association
of Southampton.
SOURCE for first five generations of Halsey Family: (The first five generations were recently proven to be the correct
lineage of our immigrant Thomas Halsey, Sr., by the Halsey Family Association of Southampton, Long Island, New York.
"BRANCHES OF THE HALSEY FAMILY") from Time Traveler's Genealogy Page on Internet.
Further documentation: The Thomas Halsey Family Association had sponsored research to ascertain the origin of
Thomas Halsey. Many expert researchers were consulted in England where they were able to pull up copies of the male
Halsey signatures on Wills, etc. to further prove their findings. Their research was certainly more than I could ever do with
my fellow Halsey researchers. The Association's findings can be found in "The English Ancestry of Thomas Halsey of
Southampton, Long Island" by Raymond David Wheeler. Also, Hilda states that Sarah and Catharine were not listed in the
book which, of course, is correct. But, Catharine and Sarah's brother Stephen Halsey (his relationship is proven and
documented by their mother's Will and other family research) and three of his sons are listed in the "Hertfordshire of 1895"
book as being the son of James Halsey's younger brother Stephen. This has caused much confusion and is causing me much
confusion to even write about it. Listed were Stephen's sons, John Trigg Halsey of Wythe County, VA; Stephen; and James
Jefferson Halsey.

close of the war when he was barely 18.370
Because of his disgust at the reconstruction
policy during the first years after the war, he left
with a party of friends who also refused to swear
allegiance to the federal gov’t, for the southwest,
ending up in Calif. where he lived the greater
part of his long life. After his death in Jan of this
year, his body was cremated and sent back here
this week. Many relatives, prominent in this
county in both Tennessee and Kentucky survive
him.’

was born May 6, 1859 in Wilson County, Tennessee The father was born
in 1814 and was a farmer by occupation and also followed the mercantile
business. He was married in 1851 and died in 1867. The mother was born

educated in Wilson County, Tennessee When only 16 yrs. of age he began
tilling the soil for himself and afterward purchased a farm of 35 acres and
now is a well to do citizen. On the 28th of Nov 1880, his marriage with
Annie T. Hawks was celebrated. She is a daughter of Preston and
Cassandra Hawks. Our subject is a highly respected citizen of the county
in which he resides and a strong supporter and believer in the principles of
Democracy. His wife is a member of the Christian Church.

building about 1891. Annie is buried in the Cedar Grove Cemetery in
Lebanon. This author possesses no information on Jesse’s final resting
place.373 (The author is his son, Charles Gambill Gleaves, Sr., date
unknown).
Born in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee in 1859. Was a small boy during the
Civil War – too young to participate therein. He has a brother named Ben
Gleaves, a sister called ‘Mike’ who married a local Dr. of medicine. The 2
sons each inherited a fairly large area of land in the vicinity of Mt. Juliet,
not all of it suitable for farming, but sufficient for so-called ‘gentleman
farming’ to provide an affluent (in those days) country life for them and
their children. My father (Jesse) sired 7 of his children in Mt. Juliet, all of
whom lived there until 1901 or 1902, then Jesse sold all of his land
holdings and with his entire family departed for Texas (greener pastures?)
arriving at Royce City Texas, a small town 35 miles or so north of Dallas.
There he invested in various acreages of cotton land hoping to enhance his
fortunes. This venture turned out badly. During the next few years
(during which I was born) land values dropped sharply, the cotton market
fell, the family sorely missed the many friends and plantation life in
Tennessee (except daughter Minnie who married Jim Mercer of Royce
City – later birthing a daughter at about the same time I was born)
So – the family returned to Lebanon, Tennessee, 15 miles from Mt.
Juliet, minus much of the monetary fortune Jesse had invested in Texas
land. However, he had sufficient remaining capital to invest in a ‘canning
factory’ – canning food products such as tomatoes, corn, etc., but this
venture also failed in a short time. From that, he opened a small feed and
grain store. My mother, Annie Hawkes died in 1907 during this dark
period, from miscarriage of her 9th child.
In his grief and series of misfortune, Jesse agreed to move to
Chattanooga, Tennessee at the insistence of his older sons where Finley,
Tovell and Jesse, Jr. had moved and were engaged in Railroad work. A
few years later, (Jul 1, 1915) Jesse H. Gleaves, Sr. died, broken in spirit
and grief – a former landlord of farms unable to battle the turmoil of the
City.
In Chattanooga, Tenn:
Guy Tovell (Gleaves) married Daisy Rosamond;
Finley P(ennebaker) (Gleaves) married Nell Lyles;
Charles G. (Gleaves) married Frankie Beard
And quite a few years later, Eldon H. (Gleaves) married Blanche
Rudder.

LETTERS FROM ABSALOM GLEAVES
Sept. 20, 1830,
Postmarked Nashville, State of Tennessee Davidson County,
TO: Major James T. Gleaves,
Wythe, Virginia.
Dear Brother yours bearing Sat. the 8 of August last has come to hand informing me of the
health of your health and family and also the health of my aged mother which letter found me and my
family in good health and yet enjoying the same blessings of God. Hoping these few lines will find you
all enjoy the same blessings when this comes to hand. I have nothing of importance to communicate to
you at present. You stated to me in your letter that you had a notion of coming to Tennessee this fall.
You stated in your letter you intend to start the 25th of October next. You wished me to inform you
whether I could go with you to the Western District. I am afrade (afraid) it will be out of my power to
go with you as the Circuit Court comes on in Nashville on the fourth Monday in November next You
say you will start the 20th October and of course it will be the 5th of November and I will not have but
18 days to go on with you as I am compelled to attend Court If you could come sooner I would be
glad to go with you to the western District. I am informed that there is a plenty of good land to be had
from three to 4 dollars per acre of the best quality no doubt but come suite yourself. I shall look for
you about the first of November next. Your friends are all well as far as I know in Tennessee.
We have had a very sevear drouth with us this summers past. A great many people has cut their
corn down and stacked it up for stock corn. God nows what will be the result. We Tennesseans don’t
go on small grain as much as you Virginians. My rye and wheat and oats is very good this year. My
corn crop is but sorry. I have very large stock and it will be hard working to get through the winter.
Times is remarkable hard in Tennessee. Money is remarkably scarce. Cotton looking up a little. You
will be good enough to bring my part of money that is coming to me and I….? You mite bring Thomas
a part two that is the Saving money and I wish you to bring the note that I left with you on Joseph
Belshey and in so doing you will much oblige me. I am respectfully yours.
Turn over
I desire to be remembered to my aged mother and glad to heare that she enjoys good health for a
woman of her age. You will please to give my best wishes to Andrew Porter and family and sister
Nancy and all enquiring friends. Bring Sister Nancy out with you and let her stay a year with me and I
will send my older son home with her next fall. I wish you would enquir what would be the price of
lively mules in Wythe as I have some very likely ones for sail (sale). Nothing more at present but
remain yours with esteem until death we join and send our well wishes to you and family believing you
will take a portion for yourself
Absalom and Catherine Gleaves to James T. and Malvina

Letter
Envelope postmarked Nashville Feb. 29
TO Major James Gleaves, ESQ,
State of Virginia Wythe County.
Febry the 18th 1832
Dear Brother
It is with pleasure I once more am permited with kind providence to write you
a few lines to inform you that we are all well at this time. We are thankful for the same hoping this will
find you all well. Your last letter informed me that I could not get a decree against Capt. Stephen
Halsey until the February Courte (court). I wish you to rite to me as soon as you receive this and let me
know the result of the suite. I am at this time making a contract with a man by the name of Earhart to
bring a legacy of money that was left him and his brothers and sisters in the State of North Carolina,
Linkhorn (Lincoln) County. I will know in a few days whether I go or not. If I goe I shall start
between the first of April and tenth. If I goe I intend coming back by Wythe as I have some business of
my own lower down in North Carolina which will bring it in my way. You requested me in your letter
before the last to name to Jacob Harkreader respecting $211 that a Mr. Brown had a claim against him
relative to a suite. I named it to Harkreader. He said if I went to Virginia this Spring he would try and
send some money with me to Mr. Brown but find the time is altered. I think if Mr. Brown would send
his papers to some friend in Tennessee that would be his best plan. I don’t wish you to let it be known
that I gave this information as it is my connection. We have had a very hard winter. I believe the
hardest I ever seen in my life. Brother Thomas is confined to his bead (bed) for 45 weeks by a strain
of one the nerves of…his leage (leg). He cant walk one step. It is thought by some it will bring faith to
him in the end. It goes very hard with him to be confined to his bead as he is a man that stirs very
much when his health admits of it. The rest of your relations are all well as far as I know at this time. I
have nothing of importance to communicate to you at present. Mr. Hening health is not very good at
this time nor has not been for a long time. I join with sincere respect and send my best wishes to you
and family and I earnestly desire to be remembered to my Mother and sister believeing you will take a
portion for youself.

Abs and Catherine Gleaves
TO: James T. Gleaves
Dear Mother brother and sisters
I feel thankful I am spard (spared) to embrace this opportunity to rite you a few lines to inform you
that we are well at present. Hoping these lines will find you all well when they come to hand. It hath
please the Allmity God to take my daughter Marthy Curde384 from time to Eternity. She departed this
life on the first day of May in the morning a few minutes after seven in the morning She was
delivered of a baby nine days previous to her death. The infant live three or four days. It is believed
that she was the principal cause of her Death by fretting about the death of her infant. Her friends were
numerous and give every attention that was necessary. The Doctor dun all in his power to save her.
God giveth and God taketh. One concilation left her dearest friends to think of when they think of
Martha M. Curde that on her dying head Jesus visited her sole and took her out of her sins and set on
the rock of ages whare sorrow and trouble is no more. She told me when she a woked out of her
droussy slumber that she had a hope that the Lord would smile on her poor sole. I told her to pray with
every breath that a few hours longer would decide the fate with her in this world that God was about to
execute his office. She prayed constantly when awake but when her droussy spells would come on she
would have a smiling countenance and when a waked out of them she told me that she had a vue of her
Jesus Christ and further told me she could see him at that time before her. Her mother leep for Joy and
praised her Jesus that he came in to the world to save sinners. She continued in her droussy ways til
she died and when she would awak out of them she still would express that she was willing to die and
that all was well with her. She loved every body and wished them to prepare to meet her in heaven
whare trouble and sorror is no more.
Dear Mother and brother the death of my daughter Martha Curde is warning to all her friends
and relations to prepare for Death. She was about 20 years old. The old must die and the young do
die. Dear brother you saw my daughter Martha M. Curd when you was at my house. You recollect
her countenance. Her and my little son William Harrison Gleaves385 that was killed by the fall of a tree
had a strong resemblance of thar father. God give me six children and has taken two out of that
number. The Allmitys will must be dun and not mine. My children often talks about you and look up
to you as a second father and if God nose (knows) my hart the longer I live the better I like you. G. F.
Hamilton family is all well. Sally Hamilton’s386 little daughter Malvina is a fine child. The Small Pox
is within one mile of me and many other places in our country. The people are very much alarmed.
When I rote last to you I thought I would have been at your house before but circumstances alter cases.
I was suppenied to attend Corte (court) in two cases on third Monday in April last which prevented my
starting to North Carolina. I also received a kick from a young horse that wounded me very much. He
kicked me just above the eie (eye) and cut it to the bone. If he had hit me in the temple he certainly
would have killed me. And on the hand and arm at the same time which laid me up for several weeks
and the death of my daughter with all the rest of my trouble come on at the time I was laid up with my
wounds. It is uncertain now when I can go to North Carolina but will try to make it out this fall if
nothing else occurs.
We had the hard a winter heare last winter that ever was seen in Tennessee. The peach tree are
nearly all killed and great many larg trees in the woods are dead. Crops of Wheat are very likley and
rye and cotton are likley. Corn are small. Your friends are well as far I now. You will please to
answer this letter when you receive it and let me know how you all are and a doing and how Mrs.

HHB: reply to FGN questioning this reference:
This was a special (Works Project Admin. ) project in the 1930s. All are at the State Library and Archives; they are bound by Counties. There are many typos in them. Probably lots of people who were working on the project were not people who
could interpret handwritings, etc. WPA was something similar to "Welfare"....it saved many starving families. It was
sometimes referred to as "We Piddle Around". My father didn't think much of it, but I can now see that it was a necessity.
At least the people may have "piddled around" but at least they had to get up and go to work, which is something "welfare"
doesn't require. The WPA actually built Berry Field - which is now the Nashville Airport.

MRS. RUTH GLEAVES510
‘Mrs. Ruth Gleaves Celebrates 90th Birthday with Schoolgirl Friend’ Date: Oct. 13, 1940511.
Quietly at her beautiful country home near the Hermitage, located on a knoll overlooking one of those
beautiful valleys of Middle Tennessee, Mrs. Ruth Gleaves is today celebrating her ninetieth
birthday…..
On Sunday her daughter, Miss Kate Gleaves, invited a few friends to an old-fashioned home
gathering in honor of the occasion. Mrs. Gleaves received her guests in the room to which she came as
a bride 65 years ago.
……seated at the table were Mrs. Gleaves’ daughter, Miss Kate Gleaves and Mrs. Mai Gleaves, her
grandson Frank and James Gleaves, Mrs. H. Morgan, Mr. and Mrs. Mayhew Dodson, Mr. and Mrs.
George Howard, Mr. and Mrs. Littrell Rust and daughters Margaret Ann and Emmaline and Mr.
Clarence J. Trantham. A number of the neighbors called during the evening to congratulate Mrs.
Gleaves.
Mrs. Gleaves was born on what is now known as Wilson Pike, some 5 or 6 miles from Brentwood in
Wilson County, Tennessee. She was the niece of James H. Wilson, one of the wealthiest landed
proprietors in the county at that time…………..
Mrs. Gleaves first married James Fortsam in 1853, but he lived only six weeks. In 1856 she married
Frank B. Gleaves512 and went as a bride to the very house where she now lives and has occupied the
same rooms as her bedroom ever since. ………….
Her guests during those years (1861-1865) ranged from those matchless heroes of the confederacy,
Gens. Morgan and Forrest, to the most despised Yankee Private. Once particularly she outwitted the
Yankee by successfully hiding a handsome young colt in a newly dug milk cellar near the house…

THE GLEAVES HOUSE513
An old man had carefully written out the details of his will, but after his death his son had turned the
inheritance of others to his own use. The actions of the son allowed him more wealth than he might
otherwise have had, but his descendants were eventually deprived of what had been gained by his
greed, and the lives of others were diminished in the process. A house was built, and after the years
had passed into well over a century, it became one of the last remaining structures of a bygone age.
With its classical design, its individuality, and the quality of its craftsmanship and construction, the
house stood in increasing contrast to more modern dwellings, and by revealing such unmistakable
change, its presence provided insights into the direction of that change. The house had stood long
enough to become part of the cultural heritage of the neighborhood and of the region, but, as had
happened with an earlier inheritance, it was not to be passed on to its proper recipients.
William Stuart514 was born in Fife-Shire, Scotland, around the middle of the eighteenth century, and
after coming to America, he apparently lived for a number of years in North Carolina. He arrived in
the Cumberland wilderness with his family by early 1780, and although he received a land grant of 640
acres in 1785, it was several years before he would be able to do much more than clear a few acres of
land. Indian attacks ravaged the Cumberland settlements until 1795, and it was probably very soon
after the end of the fighting that Stuart moved onto his land, which was located along the east bank of
Stones River and across from the place which would become known as Clover Bottom. In addition to
Stuart, his wife Margaret, and their son William, those moving to the Stones River tract included a
slave woman named Letitia and nicknamed Lettuce, and her four children. A house was built on the
southern part of the land, and the elder William Stuart supervised his farm until his death in late 1807
or early 1808. A few months before his death, Stuart had written a will which not only provided that,
after the death of his wife, Lettuce and her children would be emancipated, but also instructed that they
would receive all of his livestock, his farming implements, his household utensils and most of his land.
Lettuce and her children should have received their inheritance the following summer with the death of
Margaret Stuart, but the younger William Stuart would not abide by his father’s will and kept the
family in slavery. The children, who may have been fathered by the elder Stuart, remained together for
a time, but Lettuce and her two daughters, Nell and Celia, were eventually sold and taken away. Her
two sons, David and Moses, were kept by Stuart as slaves until 1842, and after moving to Williamson
County, they were ultimately freed by a court decision. Before his death in the late 1840s, William
Stewart, who had changed the spelling of his name, had given much of the northern part of his father’s
grant to his daughter and her husband, but David and Moses, with the help of William (B.) Gleaves, a
former neighbor, pursued their inheritance in court. Almost a half century had passed since the death
of old William Stuart when the Chancery Court of Davidson County ruled that the two former slaves
were entitled to almost 500 acres of the Stuart tract, but by the time of the decree, both their mother and
their sister Nell were dead, and their sister Celia, who had been taken to Alabama years earlier, had
never been heard from again. In addition to its ruling on the land, the court also ordered that David and
Moses should be paid over $12,000 for the rent of their property from the time of the elder Stuart’s
death, and it decreed that they were to receive over $8000 for the work they had performed during that
period. David and Moses who had moved to Missouri, chose not to live on the land which they had
finally received, and in 1854 a large part of it was sold to a brother of William Gleaves.

At the beginning of this article, William Stuart is referred to as a SON of the elder William Stuart. Court records refer to
him as a nephew.
211
Thomas Gleaves was born in Virginia in 1771, grew up during the Revolutionary War, and had come
from Wythe County, Virginia, to Davidson County by 1796, when he bought a tract of land on the east
side of Stones River near the land of William Stuart. He married Sally Smith the following year, and
their first child, William, who would grow up to help two disenfranchised slaves reclaim their
inheritance, was born soon afterward. Thomas and Sally Gleaves515 would have a number of other
children, and in addition to William, both John, who was born around 1801, and Felix, born around
1816, would have connections to the Stuart tract. Felix Gleaves was still growing up on his father’s
farm when an older brother, John married in 1828 and by the time Felix married eight years later, John
had several children. Sally Gleaves died in the 1840s, not long before the death of her husband
Thomas, and in 1854, her son, Felix Gleaves who had taken care of his father in his last years and had
been rewarded with a large share of his estate, bought 128 acres of the Stuart tract from the former
Stuart slaves, David and Moses. Felix Gleaves probably built the stylish two-story house516 soon
after buying the land and apparently lived there with his wife until the autumn of 1860, when the
property was sold to his nephews, Richard and John Bell Gleaves, sons of his older brother John, who
had died in the early 1850s.
At the beginning of the Civil War the household apparently included Richard and John Bell Gleaves,
their widowed mother, and a younger sister and brother, and although the farm was small, there were
some twenty slaves living on the place. Although the house was not damaged during the war, the
Gleaves farm suffered significant losses to foragers, and of those who had been living in the house in
1860, only John Bell Gleaves was still living there by the end of the decade. In 1866, the year before
the death of his brother Richard, John Bell Gleaves had married Annie Ridley, a descendant of early
Davidson County settler George Ridley, and by 1870 two daughters had been born in the house. Four
additional children were born over the next few years, but Annie Ridley Gleaves died in 1876, and her
husband’s unmarried cousin, Charity Gleaves, came to help him raise the children. Most of the
Gleaves children grew up and left home during the latter part of the century, but two daughters, Carrie
and Blanche, remained in the house after the death of John Bell Gleaves in 1909. The house stayed in
the family for a number of years, and in 1967, after several changes in ownership, the Gleaves house
became the property of Jerry D. Nelson. The house remained in Nelson’s possession for nearly twenty
years, but in the spring of 1986 Nelson sold it to the Chapel Road-SASA Apartment Company,517 a
business concern located in Texas, and the Gleaves House was razed soon afterward.
515
HHB: WHERE did Thomas and Sally live? And where are they buried? I have a feeling that he lived at or near the
intersection of Old Hickory Blvd. and Central Pike.)
516
The only full 2-story houses recalled by HHB was that of Miss Kate & Mrs. Ruth Gleaves … across the road and slightly
West of the one mentioned at Burning Tree. It was log with weather boards and lattice work over some or all of it. Another
was the Will Hewgley house on Mill Rd….about 200 yards S. of Central Pike. Could it have originally been a Gleaves
house?
517
HHB: The apartment complex was named Burning Tree Apartments and still known by this name as of January 2005.
An abandoned cemetery lies at the northern most part of this complex. The house moved & remodeled E. on Central Pike across from Melvin Rd
FGN: This cemetery is now named the Thomas Gleaves Cemetery after the family cleaned and reclaimed it.

OLD HICKORY SHOPPING CENTER BURNS
Old Hickory Shopping Center will be missed by a lot of people. It was built on land purchased from
DuPont Plant, but was originally a parcel of land owned by Michael Gleaves. He was the first white
settler in Old Hickory, Tennessee.
Michael Gleaves was born in 1754 in Cripple Creek, Virginia and came to Mansker’s Fort under the
command of Captain Donelson about 1779. He entered the Colonial Army and fought in the Battle of
Kings Mountain in 1780 and then returned to Mansker’s Fort where he married Rachel. He received a
640 acre Land Grant for his service (Land Grant #26). This land was across the river from Mansker’s
Fort in Jones-Hadley Bend which later became known as Old Hickory, Tennessee. He bought 640
more adjoining acres, and at a Sheriff’s sale purchased another 100 acres, giving him a total of 1300
acres. He was a wealthy man at that date and one of the first seven men to pay taxes in Davidson
County, Tennessee in the year 1791. This land was occupied by the DuPont Powder Plant during
World War I and later became the site of the DuPont Rayon and Cellophane Plants. Old Hickory
Shopping Center was built in 1948 on part of the original 1300 acres that was later owned by Dupont.
Michael Gleaves’ nephew (Thomas Harvey Gleaves) was my gggg-grandfather and followed his uncle
Michael Gleaves from Cripple Creek, Virginia to Tennessee.
My father started work for DuPont in 1935 and met my mother at the Old Dormitory in Lakewood,
Tennessee where many early DuPont employees lived. He worked at the Cellophane plant on this
property until it closed.
I remember as a child going to the Theater in Old Hickory. It cost 10 cents to get in and for a quarter
you would have popcorn and a coke. Kids would leave the movie and go to the Drug Store in Old
Hickory Shopping Center and have a soda. Those were the good old days.
The burning of Old Hickory Shopping Center is a great loss to many people and a piece of history gone
forever.

MOUNT JULIET, WILSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE
By Donna Graves Ferrell of Mt. Juliet, Tennessee
From May 1998 issue of ‘The Chronicle’
published by the Mount Juliet West Wilson County Historical Society
Tradition says the village of Mount Juliet was named for Julia Gleaves, which is easily
disproved. Julia Jennings Baird, a widow, did not live in the area until she married Guy Gleaves, 29
September 1851. During the War Between the States (1861-1865), she was regarded as a ‘ministering
angel’. She was a well respected member of the community, but the name ‘Mount Juliet’ had already
surfaced before the War and before she moved to the area.
Tradition also says the name Mount Juliet seems to have appeared about 1835. There is no
evidence to support this date. In the 1840-50 Census, the area is referred to only as the 25th Civil
District. The post office for the 25th District in 1860 was Rural Hill, Tennessee (Suggs Creek area). It
is possible the name Mount Juliet was first suggested as a name for a house, and the surrounding
community gradually took on the name. Mount Juliet High School was incorporated about 1855. In
1851-1852 several members of the community moved to Texas. These families, the Wrights,
Hamiltons, and Hewgleys were among those traveling west and established the name Mount Juliet in
Travis County, Texas.
Tradition also tells us the area first known as Mount Juliet was located on a mount, facing the
old Lebanon-Nashville Road (Old Lebanon Dirt Road), near the Eagle Tavern. This tavern was a
stopover for many a weary traveler and remained a public inn until about 1850. Was this spot
manufactured to agree with the Julia Gleaves tradition? Possibly, for there are other ‘mounts’ in close
proximity, but we can conclude this is the general area.
There were people of Irish descent in the district, but only one Irishman in the 25th Civil District
in the 1850 Census. His name was Edward Bodily, a stone mason by trade and born ca 1814 in Ireland.
Only one who had seen the countryside of Thomastown, Ireland could possibly see the similarities to
his newly adopted land. Who else but one who had seen the estates of Mount Juliet, Noreland, and the
River Nore could suggest the name Mount Juliet and possibly Moreland (Noreland) Road? Although
Stoner Creek is not the River Nore, it does meander below the ‘mounts’ much like the River Nore of
Ireland. In a video I received from Martin P. Nicholson, Managing Director of Mount Juliet in Ireland,
the topographies of the two regions are astoundingly similar. Even today in the mind’s eye, you can
envision the mount Juliet of 1840-1850. Although it is veritably impossible to prove that Edward
Bodily suggested the name, there is circumstantial evidence.
Bodily arrived in America sometime before 28 October 1848. On this date, he made bond to
marry the daughter of a prominent member of the community. The lady of his affection was Abraham
Heuguley’s youngest daughter, Almedia. Abraham possibly did not approve, but the marriage took
place a few months later, 8 March 1849. Abraham, not to be outdone, made his will 18 June 1849. He
named another son-in-law, Samuel Hamilton, to act as trustee for his daughter Almedia Bodily.
Hamilton was to see that all property described in his will for Almedia stayed in the county of Wilson
and the State of Tennessee. If she were to die without issue, the property was to go to Abraham’s other
children.
Whether Abraham considered his new son-in-law an ‘opportunist’ or just didn’t approve of him
is still evident five years later. On 10 February 1854, he added a codicil to his will making William L.
Young, another son-in-law, trustee for daughter Almedia Bodily. Samuel Hamilton who married Sarah
Heuguley, was already in Mount Juliet, Texas.
215
The surname BODLE can be found ten miles east of Thomastown in 1835. The information
came from The Kilkenny Archaeological Society in Ireland. Edward Bodily was evidently a good
stone mason, as much of his work can still be seen today. Research continues as more questions
surface. Could Edward Bodily have been one of the many Irishmen who came to work on the
Tennessee State capital. From the Tennessee State Capitol Historic Structure Report: ‘As early as July
1845, Strickland had advertised for a number of stone masons to whom fair wages would be paid’. Did
Bodily build the fire place and chimney in one or more of the houses on the mount? Did he suggest a
name for the house? Mount Juliet, in Ireland was a house, not a town or village. Whomever Edward
Bodily was, he is the only person in 1845-1850 who could have possibly seen both Mount Juliets.

ASH believes since he shows in the census as living in Hartsville, Tennessee
522
ASH believes since the child is buried in his cemetery plot and would have been born about 1884 and Andrew was
married Nov, 1883; His brother Robert Opie also has family members in the same plot but he was not married until Sept.

CENSUS RECORDS for GLEAVES FAMILY in TENNESSEE
NOTES on these CENSUS RECORDS
The author originally researched these records at the Tennessee State Archives when it was strictly a
manual process. This meant viewing and reading each page of the records on microfilm to find the
family information. At that time the author recorded the Gleaves households and who was living in that
house as well as the census citation. The editor reviewed these same images on the Internet at
ancestory.com and used its ‘every name index’ to locate the families and then added additional census
details to present a more complete picture of the family at that time.
Only census records from Tennessee are included in this work and these are primarily from Davidson
and Wilson counties. It should not be assumed that all Tennessee records are include, since handwriting
and/or spelling in the records themselves may preclude determining that these are Gleaves households.
Also not every detail in each census has been include as some items, such as language spoken in the
home, date of immigration and naturalization, do not apply to these households.
The information in these records can be used to determine:
1. who was living in the household on the day the census taker recorded the information
2. who were neighbors of a household; many of the Gleaves families lived in close proximity to
each other
3. what was the economic state of the family as that time, indicated by information such as property
values, both real and personal, was the person working and in what occupation and type of
business, and could the person read and/or write.
An effort has been made to show the family relationships in these records, but the accuracy of family
associations may not be 100%!!
How to Use the Census Reference
A reference has been created for each individual listed in these census records in an attempt to show
family relationships. Brothers Michael and William Benjamin Gleaves were used as the starting point
for each family with Michael being assigned the value of 1 and William Benjamin being assigned the
value of 2.527 The subsequent family order in each generation is based on the family order used by
Dennis Glaves528 and may not necessarily agree with the order assigned by the author or as shown in the
census records themselves.
This census reference is included in the earlier family information section when the family member is
included in any of the census records listed in this work.
The format for a reference of a ‘blood relative’ is as follows:
First generation
Second generation
Third generation
Fourth generation
Fifth generation
Etc. with each generation separated by a dot/period
527
528
ASH: Based on the author’s listing of the brothers in this work.
ASH: Selected by the editor due to the ease of viewing the family in Family Tree Maker records of Dennis Glaves.
230
The number used in the generation reference indicates the person’s position in that generation, i.e. ‘1’ is
the oldest member of the generation, ‘2’ is the second oldest, etc.
A spouse is represented by the letter ‘s’ following a dot and the reference number of their spouse. If
there is no number following the ‘s’, then there was only one spouse. When there is a number following
the ‘s’, i.e. s1 or s2, then this represents whether the spouse was the first, second, third, etc spouse.
When there is a person in the household, who is not a direct relation of the family member, then this
person is assigned a reference using the family member’s reference followed by a dot and ‘9z’.
When a household contained a person with the Gleaves name, but the person could not be identified in
the Gleaves family, then the person was assigned the number ‘9.9.9’.
Some examples using the table below:
1. James Roberson Gleaves is reference 2.1.3. This indicates that he is:
 Descended from the William Benjamin Gleaves as the first generation, look in the table for 2
 Descended from Thomas Harvey Gleaves as the second generation, i.e. look in the table for
2.1; also the 1 represents that Thomas is the oldest of the children of William
 Finally the 3 represents that James is the third oldest of the third generation.
2. Elizabeth ‘Liza’ Wood is reference 2.1.3.s This indicates that she is:
 The spouse of family member 2.1.3 and she was his only spouse.
3. Louisa P. Morgan is reference 2.1.2.s2 This indicates that she is:
 The second spouse of family member 2.1.2 who the table shows as William Benjamin
Gleaves (born 1798). Note that no reference is given for William’s first wife, Harriet
Simpkins as she is not listed in any of these census records. Had she been listed, then her
reference would have been 2.1.2.s1.
4. Rebecca Brooks is reference 2.1.3.2.3.9z in the 1880 census. This indicates that she is:
 In the household of family member, 2.1.3.2.3, Robert G. Gleaves but she is not a ‘blood
relative’ even though the census taker recorded her as his mother-in-law. Also note that she
is not listed in the Census Reference Table
5. Mary Elizabeth Gleaves is reference 1.4.5.1 [2.6.6.2.s]. This indicated that she is:
 The oldest child in the family of 1.4.5, John T. Gleaves. While she is in his household, she is
represented by this number first.
 She later married another Gleaves family member, James A. T. Gleaves, and she is given the
reference 2.6.6.2.s to represent this relationship (spouse of 2.6.6.2 who is James A. T.
Gleaves). When she is in the household of James A. T. Gleaves, she is represented by this
number first.
 By using the two numbers, her relationship is shown in both households.
231
How to Use the Census Reference Table
Each direct family member listed in a census record529 is included in the census reference table below.
The following information is included for each member when it is known:
 Name
 Birth date
 Death date
 Spouse information including
o Marriage date
o Spouse birth date
o Spouse death date
 The census years where the family member is listed indicated by an ‘X’ under each census year’s
column.
