    • Cemetery: 1911, Meigs County, Tennessee, United States; Pisgah Cemetery

    Notes:

    The 1880 Census has James's last name spelled Fyke. Although the death database for James says he died on March 24th, the tombstone reads March 23. If I ever find a death record to where I can view the death document I will change it but, for now, since I can clearly see that it states the 23rd on the tombstone, I am putting the death date as the 23rd. Also to note, the marriage record for James and Elizabeth has the last name as Fikes. All other records indicate Fike so that is what I am using.

    James married Elizabeth Fooshee on 9 Oct 1845 in Meigs County, Tennessee, United States. Elizabeth was born on 7 Sep 1821 in Tennessee, United States; died on 10 Jun 1877 in Tennessee, United States; was buried in 1877 in Meigs County, Tennessee, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

  5. 12.  Isaiah Rice was born in 1805 in North Carolina, United States; and died.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Residence: 5 Jul 1860, Washington, Rhea, Tennessee, United States
    • Residence: 15 Aug 1870, Washington, Rhea, Tennessee, United States

    Notes:

    There is a Fanny Rice living within the household of Isaiah in 1870. He has a sister by the name of Francis Rice, according to the online trees on Family Search. That tree states that she died in 1845. However, I do believe the Fanny Rice living with them, is indeed his sister Francis. Further research is required to know which way forsure.
    There is also a John born in 1858 in Tennessee and Sarah born in 1862 living with them in 1870. John was not listed in the 1860 Census, and I highly doubt that Isaiah and Ruth named a second child Sarah. Further research is required to find out wheather they are Isaiah and Ruth's children or a family member's children.

    Isaiah married Ruth Bales on 4 Apr 1834 in Knox County, Tennessee, United States. Ruth was born in 1810 in North Carolina, United States; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
