- [Letters from Daisy Jennings Hargett's grandaughter, Ann Mann, to Jan Jennings on 2 March 2005 [Ann_Mann@charter.net]
Jan,
I am home from my little trip on which, among other things got to view the dead sea scrolls. I have had time to read the material you sent, and am so pleased you would share with me. You have done so much research. Wish I had more to share with you. I never met my grandparents and mother was vague. The story is that Wilburn left AL for Texas on the wrong end of the sheriff's gun for fighting a duel. Guess it could be true as mother said the Hargetts ignored her family. He must have been a real character as he and his oldest son Clarence left his second family and went back to Texas where they both died. Wilburn in 1931 in Wolf City. The Hargett clan are still in Franklin Co AL. Have the Hargett line back to 1700 in Germany. Mother, Alma, married Edward Clark born in Fountain Co IN. 1877, in Decatur AL in 1914 they were married. I was an only child and Minnie and Clarence were childless. I married E. Lee Mann Aug 24 1946 in Giles Co TN. We had four sons Thomas, Lee Jr., Steve, and Richard. After our marriage we both went to school at Auburn on the GI bill-- can you imagine living on $105 dollars a month? We have lived here in Lawrenceburg ever since. We lost both Lee and Tom in 1993. Have nine grandchildren and two greats. I am now searching the TN census in the outside chance that Fannie may have been born in TN. There a lot of Curry listed in Maury Co. Thanks again.

I have WF birthday as Jan 15, 1862, and he married Etta fulton Oct 18,1899. They had six children. Miss Etta was the only grandparent I ever had. She lived to be 93 and made a garden the year she died. I will let you know if I ever find anything on Jennings or Curry. There is a Richard Jennings here who is somewhat into genealogy. I have ask him to share. maybe?
