Notes - According to notes by May McGlothin, Samuel B. Jacks worked in the Coal mines and farmed. They moved from Ala to Sun Mountain Coal Company Camp in Caryville, TN. After a few years, they moved to Coalfield, TN. Presumably, they were following mining jobs. Their home in Coalfield was near where the Welch Jackson place once stood in The Camp.
While living in Coalfield, again according to May McGlothin, their daughter Grace married Bob Roddy and lived in Devonia. Their daughter, Mae, married Eddie Tucker and lived in Petros. Their son, William, married and settled in West Virginia. Their daughter, Dessie, married Jerome Byrd and lived in the Back Valley community of Coalfild. Then Mr. and Mrs. Jacks took their youngest children, Gertrude and Annie, and moved back to Alabama. May McGlothin visited Gerturde occasionally, once taking her granddaughter Judy with her in the early to mid 1960s.
I'm not sure where "Samuel" came from, perhaps May McGlothin remembered the name incorrectly. But census records show the name as William Bennett Jack/Jacks. J Spradln 07-18-2019
