Note:   INTERNET: e-mail TO:"Paul Aspy" <[email protected]> FROM:Willis Arnold Finchum <[email protected]> SUBJECT:Re: Finchum Family Histo At 08:15 PM 8/26/02 -0400, you wrote: I have been reading your family history and you asked for additions and corrections and I would like to contribute. We are related to the Wilson branch. My husband is the ggrandson of Louisa Wilson who married William Henry White. I don't have much documentation, but I did receive a tree handed down through the family regarding James Wilson born in Nelson KY in Mar 1812. According to the family records, he was married two times as you stated. His first marriage to Sarah Mannon produced seven children. Louise and Martha Wilson were not her children. James married Elizabeth Whitaker in 1857 (after Sarah died in 1854.) This couple had three additional children. 1. Louisa born 1858 and married William Henry White. She died in 20 Jan 1925 in Elwood, IN. 2. Mary Wilson who was born 25 Aug 1859 and died 26 Nov 1859. 3. Martha Wilson who was born about 1862. She was supposed to have married Wright Beaman. I did find Elizabeth Whitaker in the 1850 census still living with her parents. Hope this little bit helps. Thank you for sharing your history. Valona Aspy ***************************************************************************************** My Response: Hi Valona, Thank you very much for your letter. Louisa Wilson is my first cousin twice removed. If your husband is her great-grandson then your husband and I are third cousins once removed. All of the descendants of Louisa Wilson are relaterd to me and I would appreciate any data you may be able to provide to help other who are researching family.

Are you descended from Martha Wilson or one of Louisa's half siblings? I have not had time to discover this by reading your family pages. We are very interested in hearing from you. In scanning your Finchum history I see that one of your ancestors lived at one time in Washington Co TN which is our adjoining county. I may sometime be able to help you find something there. My husband's grandmother was Nettie Ruth White Aspy who was Louisa's fourth child. Thank you for your reply and we will be anxious to hear again from you.

I would like to have the names of your husband, his parents, and his grandparents. It would help to include all dates and places associated with events of birth, death, marriage, etc. I have visited Washington County and have researched as much data as I could find and what I found is listed in the notes for William Finchum (Flinchum, Flincham are other names he was listed under in several records). He moved on to Cocke Co. before 1940. His sons Robert and Elijah moved from Washington Co. before 1830 and I found marriage record for Elijah Flinchum but none for Robert. After you have a chance to examine what data I have and then if you find additional or errors, I would appreciate notification. Any pictures of any of the family would ber welcomed also. Thanks again for prompt reply to may last message. "Cousin" Arnold Finchum [email protected]
