My brick wall is Stephen T. HAMBLIN who was born about 1791. He died a
pauper in March 1866 in Giles County. The county purchased a casket for him.
I have no idea where he is buried. I will appreciate any help on any of
these family members. I do know this:

and had 8 children. They are:

of property), Milly Hamblin, Stephen W. Hamblin, Jr., Charlotte hamblin,
Nancy Hamblin Sparrel K. Hamblin, and Lot I. Hamblin who died in Confederate
Service in 1862. Rhoda died about 1838 unknown where or where buried.
Stephen T. Hamblim married a second time to Sarah L. Fagg a daughter of
Daniel Fagg and Hannah Bowles.They were married September 10, 1840 and
proceeded to have 7 more children. They are: Elizabeth Hamblin, Virginia
Hamblin, James Henderson Hamblin (my great grandfather), Silas M. Hamblin,
