847. Alexander M. "Eck" CHADWELL
He was a Confederate veteran of the Civil War. After the war he apparently got in a shooting scrape in Claiborne County and had to leave the state. He spent time with his uncle, Doctor Jacob Shults, in Louisiana, later moved on into Texas. It appears he never returned to East Tennessee.
241. Amanda A. SHULTZ
Don Reagan identifies this daughter as 'Amanda' in "Smoky Mountain Clans Vol 2", but lists an unknown WILLIS as her husband. Phillips and Braun, in their book "Chadwell Heritage" do not mention this daughter by name although they do reproduce two letters from a 'W.H. Willis', a grandson, to George B. Shults. The name 'James' was provided by the research of Roy Marvin Shultz and his relatives, of Greenville, TX, and by Claiborne Co, TN marriage records. P.G. Fulkerson, in his "Early Settlers of Claiborne County" identifies James as the son of William "Buck" Willis, who ".... came to Sycamore prior to 1835." But, Mr. Fulkerson also says James married a 'Mary' Shultz!
852. W.H. WILLIS
This W.H. Willis was in Company B, 4th US Artillery, stationed at Ft. Riley, Kansas in late 1866 and early 1867. In letters to his grandfather, George, he tells of fighting Sioux and Cheyenne Indians, mentions an EMMELINE (possibly his wife) and a "Mr. E. Willis", possibly his father. He also expresses a consuming desire to return to Tennessee to see his grandparents and asks, very plaintively, "...would the people kill me if they knew I was a Union soldier in the U.S. Army?"! He also writes, "Father and Emeline is in the South and are mad at me because I am in the U.S. Army. He won't let Emeline write to me and that is the way with others, so I am like a lost sheep."
His father, George, apparently thought very highly of Magaret and her parents. George wrote in his memoirs that Margaret was the "...daughter of William Dunsmore of Irish descent--- a good liver and an honest and industrious family...". However, Martin divorced Margaret and apparently got custody of all the children! Margaret had another child, Samuel J. Shultz, AFTER her divorce from Martin, and later married* Frank Morgan.
Martin joined the Confederate Army in 1862 and was a Private in Co I, 2nd (possibly 3rd) Tenn Cavalry. He was captured near Shelbyville, TN on 7 Oct 1863 in the Battle of Simms Farm. He was taken first to Nashville, TN, then transferred to Camp Morton, a prisoner-of-war camp at Indianapolis, Indiana. He died there of illness on 5 Mar 1864, one of more than 1,600 Confederate soldiers and sailors who died in the camp. There's a monument in a park in Indianapolis with a bronze plaque listing the names of those who died in the camp.
* I can't find a marriage record for Margaret and Frank Morgan. I do find a "Maggie Dunsmore" married Lewis ROSE, 18 Aug 1895 in Union Co, TN. Doubtful that it's her.
858. Thomas B. SHULTS
He MAY be the 'Thomas Shultz' who married Mary Fullington in 1881 in Claiborne Co, TN.
He and his family were in Denton Co, TX for the 1880 census.
860. Adaline Louisiana "Ada" SHULTZ
She was named for the place of her birth.
Eliza's father, Thomas Johnson, came to Claiborne County from Mobile, Alabama about 1840 and married Eliza J. Graham, whose father, Dr. Andrew Graham, had been a surgeon in the British Navy. Thomas Johnson was later in the Confederate Army during the Civil War. Eliza's sister, Mary, married Alexander Cloud.
Benjamin was a Confederate veteran of the Civil War. He moved to Missouri with his parents in the late 1850's. After the War he went to Navarro Co, Texas where he hauled freight between Millican and Dallas for about two years. In 1868 he returned to Tazewell, TN. For a number of years he was engaged in the mercantile business, as his father had been. He was Postmaster at Cumberland Gap, TN in 1894.
Benjamin was a close friend of Frank James, brother of Jesse. He and Frank served together in the Confederate Army and both drove ordinance wagons. In August 1875 Frank came to Tazewell to visit with his old friend, Benjamin. The book "800 Missouri Families" 4 Vols, Feb 1989, by Don Vincent, Volume 3, page 16 has a small article by one Milburn Divine. He writes of Benjamin: "He was a Capt. in [the same] Confederate Cavalry troop in Missouri in which both Frank and Jesse James were members. Schultz built "Meadow Hill" house and farm. Here Frank and Jesse came when wanted in Missouri. Schultz sold "Meadow Hill" to Dr. John W. Divine (an ancestor of the Milburn Divine writing the article...jrs) and old papers found in the garrett over the kitchen in this house in 1954 confirm the Schultz-James story."
867. Wade Graham SHULTS
After his death Minnie PROBABLY had another marriage to a PARKEY as she's buried beside Wade witht her name as "Minnie Shultz Parkey"!
248. William M. SHULTS
Louisa was the daughter of Jacob Payne, an early settler in Greene Co, MO. William enlisted in the Confederate Army in February 1863. After the war he was a farmer and stock raiser and had 200 acres of prime farm land. According "Early Settlers of Greene Co, Missouri" he came to Missouri in 1858.
