Other Events:

• Tax Record: 1836, District 5, Giles County, Tennessee, USA;

  Vincent Tidwell, 86 acres, 1 white poll

Notes:

6 of Vincent and Phebe Tidwell's children served the Confederacy.

Jane Eveline Tidwell would have been abt 18 at the time of the 1840 census, and she is not reflected in the household. It is my guess that she may have already married William Tacker. I have written to the Tennessee State Library and Archives to ask them to check the published record of TN marriages prior to 1861, which they will do with no fee.

Died:
Vincent must have died between 1868 and 1870, because his wife's "widow's year" support is in Will and Inven. Book 1868/70.

Vincent married Phebe Ann Rackley on 10 Jan 1817 in Giles County, Tennessee, USA. Phebe (daughter of Silas Rackley and Diana Manning) was born on 4 Jul 1799 in Nash County, North Carolina, USA; died on 15 May 1883 in Giles County, Tennessee, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Goodspeed entry on TIDWELL of Giles Co CALLAWAY H. TIDWELL, Esq., a prominent farmer and stock-raiser of the Sixth District of Giles County, is a son of Vincent and Phebe Tidwell and the grandson of Isaac and Elizabeth Tidwell, who immigrated to this State from South Carolina and settled in this county in the early part of the eighteenth century. Our subject's mother was the daughter of Silas Rackley of South Carolina, who came to Tennessee at an early date and settled in Lawrence County. The parents of our subject were married January 10, 1817 and their family consisted of eleven children: Callaway H., Jane E., Silas, Elizabeth, Charles W., Darling M., William G., Thomas B., James P., Melissa A. and Andrew J. Callaway passed his youthful days on the farm and secured a practical education in the country schools. In 1841 he was united in marriage to Leah Tucker, a native of Giles County, born February 17, 1825, and the daughter of Anderton and Stacy Tucker, natives of North Carolina, who immigrated to this State at an early day and made their home in this county. To Mr. and Mrs. Tidwell were born eleven children: Naucy J., Margaret A., Stacy E., William C., Martha C., Vincent M., Phebe M., Alice N., Mary W., Charles W., and Ozro H. Our subject settled where he is now living in 1874, and his farm consists of 500 acres of excellent land, all well improved and a part of the same in a high state of cultivation. He also owns 600 acres more, all well improved, in other parts of the county. He has been very successful financially, as he started in life with very little of this world's goods. He was elected magistrate in 1845, and has held the office in an able and capable manner. The family are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, at Trinity, and are all very highly respected citizens. Mr. Tidwell's political belief is Democratic. (Goodspeed's History of Giles County, 1886)

Died:
Was gone before time of 1830 census.

Isaac married Elizabeth Rackley about 1796 in South Carolina, USA. Elizabeth was born between 1770 and 1780 in South Carolina, USA; died between 1830 and 1840 in Tennessee, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

WFT disk #7 indicates that Isaac Tidwell's wife was named Elizabeth RACKLEY; although undocumented, it is quite likely to be true, as some of her descendants married into the Rackley family.
