    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]
