      William and John Liles of Morgan County, TN Posted by Judy Womack (ID******9984) Date: July 23, 2002 at 15:31:57: Looking for thefamilies of John and William Liles. They were involved in a ChristmasDay 1858 fight with the Russells and Taylors and later brought chargesof assault and battery. Would like to know what the fight was aboutand if a feud developed over time.

      Note from Alexis Hacker Scholz:
      Jesse Hacker was married twice and died an untimely death in 1883 whenon the Fourth of July he was gambling on the train headed for Winter'sGap and got into a fight with the Liles brothers, guns and knives.There was a huge court case with everyone in the county getting intoit. Papers in old Roane County Courthouse. He was at that timemarried to Mary Frances Silvey, who later married Elisha Rose. Sheand Jesse had three kids: Fred, Edgar, and Cora.

      This is Thomas? son.

      Thomas had two sons, John and William. I have a document from 1848where William is accused of cohabitating without marriage and he endedup paying a fine of $25, but he shows up being married about the timeof the suit settlement. He died without issue, but he shows up in alater census with a young male, also William, who is the oldest son ofJohn, who died in 1861. He is referred to as ?Old Uncle Bill.? Thomasbought some land with his two sons that was later sold to a miningcompany and there is a bunch of documentation relating to the purchasearrangements and disposition of John?s share to his children.
