Jeremiah was the son of William ECHOLS and Mary Elizabeth FARMER. Harriett was the daughter of David ECHOLS & Dinal TRIBBLE. At the age of two, Mary D. lost her father, Jeremiah, when he died at the age of thirty-eight of a heart ailment.

On December 16th, 1866, at the age of eighteen, Mollie married Ambrose Christopher GARRETT, the son of Elijah & Polly Ann GARRETT. They had two daughters: Rena & Florence. Around 1870, Ambrose & Mollie assumed guardianship over the children of Ambrose's first cousin, Gabriel M. WRIGHT when he and his wife, Mary Polly (Garrett), died of the Measles. Ambrose & Mollie also took care of three nieces/nephews: Fanny, Martha & Stonewalll McDONALD, which made for a full house for such a young couple.

On March 24th, 1874, Mollie lost her thirty-year-old husband. Mollie continued as guardian of the three WRIGHT children after Ambrose's death. Soon after, she married John. H. HUNTER, son of James Wyatt & Lucinda Wills (Garrett) HUNTER. They had three sons: John H. Jr; Sledge, and Fred.

Notes:

Jeremiah Echols, son of William Echols III and Mary Elizabeth Farmer, was born in Virginia in 1811. His mother died in Huntsville Madison County Alabama in 1816, and is buried there. In about 1836 Jeremiah came with his father, his stepmother Sarah Haley, and some of his siblings to Chulahoma Marshall County Mississippi. There the family bought land from the Chickasaw Indians in 1837. Fannie's mother Harriet Echols also came from Pittsylvania County Virginia to Marshall County Mississippi in the late 1830s. Jeremiah and Harriet were third cousins. After Jeremiah and Harriet married in Marshall County Mississippi on 12 Oct 1841, they made their home in the next county, which was then DeSoto Mississippi. Tate County was formed out of DeSoto County in 1873. The children born to Jeremiah and Harriet were Joel Turner, Susan Luvenia, Mary D, David E, and Frances Jeremiah.

Jeremiah and Harriet lived on land owned by his brother John until Jeremiah's death, at which time John, who had moved to Texas, sold that land so he would have no holdings in Mississippi to manage. Harriet, being a strong person in both personality and perserverance, managed to buy 300 acres of land in the Crockett area, and later bought other land connected to the 300. The Echols' had donated a plot for a Baptist Church and space for a cemetery in that area. It was in that cemetery that both Jeremiah and Harriet were buried. The site was covered by a road in 1937.

"Fannie's father, Jeremiah Echols, a son of William Echols III and Mary Elizabeth Farmer, was born in Virginia in 1811. His mother died in Huntsville, Madison County, Alabama, in 1816, and is buried there. In about 1836 Jeremiah came with his father, his stepmother (Sarah Haley), and some of his siblings to Chulahoma, Marshall County, Mississippi. There the family bought land from the Chickasaw Indians. in 1837. Fannie's mother Harriet Echols, also came from Pittsylvania County, Virginia to Marshall County, Mississippi, in the late 1830s. Jeremiah and Harriet were third cousins. Their line of descent goes back to "Old" John Echols and Mary Cave; Jeremiah descending from John and Mary's son, William I, through William II and William III; and Harriet descending from John and Mary's son, Abraham, through Joseph Echols and Elizabeth Street and their son, David Echols and Dinah Tribble who married 3 June 1802. When Jeremiah and Harriet married in Marshall County, Mississippi, on 12 October 1841, they made their home in the adjoining cunty, which was then DeSoto County, Mississippi. Tate County was formed out of DeSoto County in 1873. The children born to Jeremiah and Harriet were Joel Turner, Susan Luvenia, Mary D., David E., and Frances Jeremiah.

Jeremiah and Harriet lived on land owned by his brother, John, until Jeremiah's death, at which time John, who had moved to Texas, sold that land so he would have no holdings in Mississippi to see about. Harriet, being a strong person in both personality and perserverance, managed to buy 300 acres of land in the Crockett area, and later bought other land connected to the 300. The Echols' had donated a plot for a Baptist Church and space for a cemetery in that area. It was in that cemetery that both Jeremiah and Harriet were buried. In the 1990's I went into that area to locate the land and the cemetery. The church had been gone many, many years; but I learned that the cemetery had been destroyed in abut 1937 when a new road was cut through. An elderly gentleman who owned and lived on some of the land that Harriet had bouhgt in 1856, showed me where the cemetery had been. He lived there in 1937 when the road came through. I asked him about the tombstones, and he told me they were simply covered over with dirt scraped from the hillside as the road was made.

Fannie's brother, Joel Turner Echols, served in and was killed in the Civil War. On 31 July 1867 Susan Luvenia married William L. Hudson of Yalabusha County (MS) and lived first in Arkabutla, but were in Yalabusha by 1880. Their first child was William E Hudson. They eventually moved to Memphs, Shelby County, Tennesse. In the 1940s I was with my father when he visited one one of her descendants there, Jim Hudson, who was a retired dentist. Mary D. married Ambrose C. Garrett 19 Dec 1866, soon after Harriet died in 1866; their first child was a daughter, Rena. David E., born in 1846, fought in the Civil War in Company G, Woods Regiiment, 1st Mississippi Cavalry, under Adams. I was told by a distant cousin, now deceased, that David E. was a scout for the Confederate troops in the Civil War. It was said that he sold various items from a horse-drawn cart and was allowed to move freely among the troops of both the North and the South. In this capacity he was able to gather information from the North troops and carry it to the Confederates. David E. suffered injuries during that war. On 27 Dec 1867 he married Martha/Mattie A. E. Owens; they had four children. They lived in Yalabusha County. David E. died 20 Oct 1877, supposedly from the wounds he suffered in the war. His wife died in 1876. One of the children died as an infant, but the others were raised by relatives. Ther were Jeremiah Joel (Jerry), Isham Turner (I.T.), and Harriet Corina (Cora), who was living with her Aunt Susan in 1880 in Yalabusha County. By 1889, she was living with Sydnor Coleman and Frances Jeremiah in Tate County. She is in a family picture made in 1889 of the Sydnor Coleman Giles family. " (Iva Erlene Giles Moore).

Jeremiah married Harriet Echols on 12 Oct 1841 in , Marshall, Mississippi, USA. Harriet (daughter of David Echols and Dianah Tribble) was born on 7 Sep 1818 in , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA; died on 24 Jul 1866 in , DeSoto, Mississippi, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

In Reply to: Re: Dianah Tribble (1779) by Hugh Evans of 893
I have that Dinah Tribble was the daughter of James Tribble and ? (perhaps a Collins*). Her father married (2) Nancy (Spurbanks?) on Apr 17, 1802 in Halifax Co, VA. Dinah's siblings were:
1. Tabitha Tribble - married (1) Thomas Word; (2) Richard Horn (I have more information of this branch)
2. Isaac Tribble
3. Ann Tribble
4. Mary "Polly" Tribble - married Glennis Blankenship
* I have an old letter from a distant relative that indicates that Tabitha had said her Mother was a "Collins".
I haven't been able to find out if this is correct or not.

Hugh Malone discovered Wilson Co., TN Chancery Bk 1, pp 281-287, Owen vs. Tribble. This suit identifies the sisters and brother of Dinah Tribble (m. David Echols) as: Tabitha (m. Richard Horn), Sarah (m. Henry Street), Ann, Mary (m. Glennis Blankenship), and Isaiah. Also identified were half-sisters Fanny (m. John T. Davis) and Lucy.
Dinah and her sisters and brother were children of James Tribble and his first wife, name unknown. The half-sisters were the children of James Tribble and Nancy Spurbanks. Tabitha did marry first, Thomas Ward.

Other Events and Attributes:

• Residence: 1749, , Lunenburg, Virginia, USA

Notes:

Joseph Echols (1735-1789) married first Elizabeth King and second in 1772, Elizabeth Street. On 20 September 1751 Joseph and Isaac Echols obtained individual patents to land on Straightstone Creek in Lunenburg County. We presume this was this Joseph Echols and his brother. Joseph's patent was for 400 acres. We speculate that he was the same Joseph Echols who had a patent for 272 acres in Lunenburg County on both sides of Sandy Creek in 1756. A cousin and uncle of the same name were in the area. As Joseph Echols Jr he had a patent for a 13-acre island in the Staunton River 29 November 1756. In 1785 the plantation upon which Joseph lived had nine cabins, including a 640-square foot dwelling and a mill. Ten whites were then in his family. Joseph was dead by 1792, intestate, and the court granted Obediah Echols administration. A chancery suit and the division of land of Joseph Echols in 1794 reveals the names of his surviving 12 children.

1 Obediah Echols married Nanny Franklin in Halifax County 7 September 1805.
2 Sarah Echols
3 John Echols
4 Rhoda Echols
4 Drusilla Echols
6 Mary Echols
7 Joseph Echols married Elizabeth Lambeth, a daughter of Meredith Lambeth, in Campbell County 6 June (bond) 1814.
8 Abraham Echols was a resident of Monongalia County, now West Virginia, in 1797 when he sold his inheritance to James Echols of Bedford County.
9 Rebecca Echols was in Hawkins County, Tennessee in 1797 when she sold her inheritance to James Echols.
10 Tabitha Echols married Elijah Lacy in Halifax County 12 January (bond) 1802.
11 David Echols (14 Jan. 1776 - 18 Feb. 1854) married Diana Tribble (14 Jan. 1784 - 12 May 1848), a daughter of James Tribble, in Halifax County 29 May (bond) 1802. They were the parents of eleven children born 1803-1823.
12 Moses Echols married Elizabeth Hicks in Campbell County 9 February (bond) 1807.
13 Judith Echols , a daughter of Joseph Echols, married Benjamin Gosnell in Halifax County 24 March (bond) 1788. She evidently died before the distribution of her father's estate.
