WAGNON - GAMBLIN GENEALOGY

HUFFINES Page




We have received genealogical information on the Huffines, Huffine, Hofheintz family from a number of people so have no documentation for some of the information listed here. We can, however, put you in touch with people who do have documents. You will notice several different spellings in this chart. We have tried to list the spelling as it was given to us.

We welcome your comments and/or corrections of your family information as we want this to be as accurate as possible. For instance: We have always been told that Riley Washington Hufhines married Sarah(Sallie)Ray. Some think her last name was Carver. Anybody got proof one way or the other?

We invite you to share your family history with us. Thank you.

    I quote: The Teel Graveyard is located in the 3rd Civil District of Jackson county, on Wartrace Creek, about 1/2 mile above the Camp Ground Methodist Church, also 12 miles West of Gainesboro. The land formerly owned by Adam Teel, who came from Virginia, or North Carolina soon after 1800. This farm was sold to his son, William Teel, who later sold same farm to Cornelius Carver, and moved to Texas.
    Adam Teel and his wife are buried here and other members of the Teel family. There are many graves here, with only a few of them marked. Many slaves are buried in this graveyard, a few of their graves marked with a flat rock, but have no names or dates on them.
    This land is now owned and cultivated by Walter Draper, his residence but a few yards from the above named graveyard.
    It is located behind the house and beside the barnyard of Mr. McQue, who now owns the property whe we visited in 1990. Mr. McQue said that he had never heard it referred to as Teel Cemetery or any other name. It was just there when he bought the property. The Draper residence has been torn down and a new brick house built. Thse old barn is still there.
    Riley has a tall monument with a poem carved on it. At that time we could not find the gravestone of Sarah, although in 1937 when Mrs. Maude McGlasson of Gainesboro, Tennessee canvased the Cemetery there was a stone on it.
