Notes
a. Note:   N270 Leaf-Chronicle Weekly (Clarksville, Tennessee), 15 August 1890, Friday
  Death of Dr. James H. Meriwether in Tuesday's Daily
 This venerable citizen died at his home, Meriville, near Guthrie, last evening at 10 o'clock, in the 77th year of his age. For quite a number of years he had been afflicted with paralysis, and a second stroke is believed to have been the immediate cause of his death.
  His death removes one of the best men in this county, a man who in the prime of his life and before the afflictions of disease had taken hold of him, stood pre-eminent in his profession and as a citizen. Dr. Meriwether was a descendant of a wealthy and highly cultured family. Meriville, his home and the home of his father, is known as one of the finest farms and most hospitable abodes in all this section. He was a high strung courtly gentleman of the old regime, who had no patience with anyone or anything that smacked of trickery or dishonesty.
  Dr. Meriwether left eight children, six sons and daughters, five of whom were with him in the last hours.
  His remains will be buried this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, in the family burying ground, at Meriville, with services by Dr. Pettis.
