- Unknown GEDCOM info: Cardiac Disease
The 1870 Carter County Census shows a son born in about 1862 named Nathaniel. He is not listed in any following civil records. The 1880 census lists a daughter named Nellia born in about 1861. In the 'Carter County, Tennessee Marriage Records, 1796-1870', an abstract by Goldene Fillers Burgner, the following marriage record is listed: DeLoach, Nettie to W.M. Scalf 24 December 1885 Dawn Peters has seen this record and believes the nameshould be Nellie. In the 1910 Carter County census, there is the following enrty: Scalf William 50 Nellie 45 W.C. 19 Bertha 17 In the Carter County Death Records is a listing for Nettie Scalf, born 1865, died 12 November 1934. Parents were Thomas DeLoach and Perlina Oliver. Based upon the above, I conclude that the 1870 census is erroneous in listing Nathaniel as a son. The given name for this child may have been Nathanielle, with a nickname of Nellie or Nellia. This is the way that the child of Thomas DeLoach and Perlina Oliver who was born in about 1862 will be carried in this record.
