African-American History & Genealogy in Nashville, TennesseeI live in Nashville, TN and will use this site as a way to post information that I find and collect regarding blacks associated with the city. Most of the content is likely to come from the Nashville Globe, a black newspaper that was published here in Nashville in the first half of the 1900s. I will also include materials from other newspapers as appropriate and various books and items that I may come across. http://blacknashville.wordpress.com/ - last updated 29 Dec 2015 |
The Thacker ChroniclesFiled under: Personal Research | African-American This is about my research into one of my family lines, the Thackers. That this limb of the family tree is bi-racial has taken me by surprise and has left me a little off balance. It is odd that this should be the case. Why is this different for me than finding out that I am part say, Ukranian or Lithuanian? I don't know - but it is. That's part of what I wish to explore. So come along with me, as I search out my non Anglo-Saxon roots. http://thethackerchronicles.blogspot.com/ - last updated 27 Nov 2015 |

This involved examining tens of thousands of documents, census records, wills, bible records, reading hundreds of letters, and interviewing descendants of the slaves and the plantation owners. http://www.wessyngton.com/blog/ - last updated 5 Oct 2015 |
