Forsythe lines. I am putting this on the McNairy County page simply because I
thought it might help someone. What is here is all I have, it is not my line

(Note: please allow for errors in transcribing names. )

This information is drawn from two lawsuits in McNairy County, Tennessee
Chancery Court:

#641 George Parry, etals VS James Dunaway, etals 1886

#903 James McNatt, etals VS Can Foresythe, etals 1894

This case shows that James Forsythe departed this life intestate in McNairy
County, State of Tennessee some time in the month of April 1884, without
issue, leaving surviving heirs only Martha Forsythe, his widow, who since
intermarried with complainant George Parry. (Note: Martha Forsythe Parry died
in 1892.)

At the time of the death of said James Forsythe, intestate was the owner of a
large personal estate which has been fully administered and left to his widow,
Martha Forsythe. (Apparently, his personal wealth, which Martha Forsythe
inherited was gleaned by her new husband George Parry.) However, at the time
of her death, James Forsythe's siblings and legal heirs, filed the lawsuit to
obtain title to the land. The first lawsuit was filed in 1886 and the second
filed in 1894, after Martha's death.

At the time of the death of said intestate, he was the owner of the following
tracts of land:

1. Lying and being on the south side of Oxford's Creek, in the sixth civil
district, McNairy County, Tennessee, containing 231 acres. Land Grant from the
State of Tennessee Sept 10, 1847.

2. Lying and being on the south side of Oxford Creek , joining the first
tract, containing 6 ½ acres. This land was purchased from Thomas Prather on
December 26, 1859 for $250.50.

Deed witnessed by S. T. Brooks and M. K. Forsythe.

3. Lying and being on the south side of Oxford Creek in the sixth and
thirteenth civil districts, containing 100 acres. Purchased from Augustus
Browder 1876.
