"Uncle Bill's youngest brother, John, was staying with relatives inthe Coalfield area in the late 1870's. He got acquainted with a verylovely young girl named Lucinda Solomon. She was very beautiful andwas the granddaughter of Joseph Hicks, the Indian. John Liles andLucinda were married June 3, 1879. They went to the county seat ofMorgan County at Old Montgomery which is located between Wartburg andLancing. Since there were no automobiles in those days, some thinkthat John and Lucinda got up extra early that morning and headed forthe county seat in a horse and buggy. John, at this time was nineteenyears old and Lucinda was seventeen" From "A History of theCoalfield Area" by W.B. Lyles

Notes:

From "A History of the Coalfield Area" by W.B. Lyles - - Another family was Solomons, who came from Virginia. They had a son by the name of William Riley Solomon. He was in his early twenties the winter they came through in 1855. They stayed until the weather was good enough, so they could go west. During their stay, he fell in love with a girl by the name of Julie Hicks. He decided to remain here with the Hicks family. They got married in early 1856. Their children were as foollows: Nancy, John, Lucinda, James, Margaret, Martha, and George. There is little known as about Mary and Nancy Solomon. Undoubtedly, they must have died in their infancy. John Solomon, who was born in 1858, died in the same place he was born in 1956 at the age of 98. He did not have any schooling, but he did know how to work. He was a hard worker. His line of work was farming and working in the log woods. He was a gardener and made the last one when he was 97 years old.
Not long after John was born, they had another daughter. When she was a year old, the Civil War started. The father, William Riley Solomon,had to go to war. He was a bugler during the Civil War. A few months after he left, Riley Solomon's wife had another daughter born in 1862. Her name was Lucinda, and she was the one who later was my (W.B.Lyles) grandmother. Her grandfather was the Cherokee Indian, Joseph Hicks.
After the war was over and William Riley Solomon got back home, a son was born, James. Two years later the daughter, Margaret, was born. Then, in the early 1870's, Martha was born. She had a terrible handicap - a very bad hairlip. It was verery difficult for her to eat. I can today remember her in her old age. It was very hard for me to understand the words she said. She never married, but when she was about 20, she had a son by the name of George. Everyone said that a boy by ththe name of Liles was his father, and he went by the name of George Liles. George grew up to be a big man - 6 feet, 6 inches, about 245 pounds. He left Tennessee and never did come back. The story is told that he went to Texas and married. It is said that he died in the state of Texas and was buried there. When Martha was in her 80's she died. She did not have an income. She stayed with people, working to earn her board - she did this all her life.
In 1880, Riley and Julie Solomon had their last child. George was born. He lived to be 94 and died in 1976 in Oakdale, Tennessee. All of these people earned their living by hard work. About 93% were listed as farmers. Some worked in the mines and log woods cutting timber.
