  • Notes 
    • Allen's Notes: Found his actual death certificate. Unfortunately it was reported by someone that is not family (W.W.Whilhite). They didn't know the names of his birth parents and filled it out as Sam H. Kidwell. I have yet to find any proof of a middle name so I'm not sure McCurry is the right name. I am posting his death certificate to tnroots.com now.

      I called the oldest listed funeral home and they did state that they were the very first funeral home in Monterey and before 1929 "Undertakers" worked out of their homes and took care of the bodies that way. I can not track this to a mortuary in Monterey.

      Judy,

      I first thought he might be related to the Kidwell family in WayneCo., KY that married into the BUTTRAM (BERTRAM) family in the early1800s. However, I found him in Jefferson Co., Tennessee on the 1850,1860, and 1870 census.

      He was listed as Samuel Kidwell, b. 1826 TN on the 1850, District 13.
      S. Kidwell, b. 1826 TN on the 1860
      Samuel Kidwell, b. 1825 TN on the 1870, District 10

      There is a World Family Tree that says he married Mary Ann Grant onAugust 4, 1849 in Jefferson Co., TN; Father -David Kidwell; Mother -Mary _____ (can't read my notes here); Children: Thomas, David, John,Ella, Elisabeth, P.W., and J. Kidwell. That submission says he died in1880 but they probably put that because they had not yet found him inFentress Co., TN on the 1880 Census.

      Hope this helps.

      Per the 1860 census, Samuel was a farmer at Talbot's Station in Jefferson Co.

      In the 1850 US Census, Samuel Kidwell, age 24, was Married to Mary Ann Grant and their first child, David, was 2 months old. Samuel lived next door to his father, David Kidwell.

      References:

      Hmmmm! Where did the census say Samuel Kidwell was born? There could be a connection to the Kidwells in Wayne Co., KY. I think they came from North Carolina before Wayne Co., KY. The 1910 Anderson County, TN census shows Samuel H. Kidwell was 84 so he was born about 1826, which matches the F. H. (S.H.) Kidwell in the home of Thomas J. and Sarah C. Kidwell. That would make him a peer of the Silas or William Silas Kidwell who left Wayne Co., KY about 1835 (year off the top of my head) for White Co., TN.

      Ron Kidwell has graciously helped me with Samuel. It is his daughter Henrietta that is giving me fits. It took 25 years to find the name of her husband. I don't have another 25 years to find more about him (Charlie Carter). If I could find the community the Kidwells lived in or why they lived there (I.e. mining or logging ), I might be able to follow them to the next job or community and see where they met up with the Carters. Following the Kidwells has been easier than following the Carters.

      Hmmmm! Where did the census say Samuel Kidwell was born? There could be a connection to the Kidwells in Wayne Co., KY. I think they came from North Carolina before Wayne Co., KY. The 1910 Anderson County, TN census shows Samuel H. Kidwell was 84 so he was born about 1826, which matches the F. H. (S.H.) Kidwell in the home of Thomas J. and Sarah C. Kidwell. That would make him a peer of the Silas or William Silas Kidwell who left Wayne Co., KY about 1835 (year off the top of my head) for White Co., TN.

      I have a GGG Grandfather that is a Sam Kidwell abt 1826. My Grandfather told me Sam was in the confederate army. He had at least Two sons Tom and John and maybe a daughter Henrietta.

      Tom was married to Etta May. John, to a sitzler from morristown, and then later married susan dials. I believe Sam Is from Jefferson Co. I am tring to find where Sam died. And of course his parents Identity. Not sure If he is the Mccurry or one in the same.

      Any help would be appreciated.

      Regards,
      David Kidwell

      David, i sent you an e-mail, i think they are the same Samuel. In the 1870 census Jefferson county TN, Talbott Station Samuel 45 with wife Polly A. 41 David 20 John 18 Josiah 16 Elizabeth 8 Thomas 6 Alice 3 and Henrietta 1. on each side of Samuel in the same census is Peter Couch who married Samuels sister Elizabeth and on the other side of Samuel is his brother John. In later census in Anderson county Samuel is living with daughter Henrietta.

      By 1880 Samuel Kidwell and his son, David, have moved to Fentress County, TN, where they live next door to each other. Samuel's surname is listed as "Lidnell" on Ancestry.com's census transcription.

      In Samuel's household are his wife, Mary Ann; daughters Elis Beth, Henrietta (Etta), sons John and Thomas. Next door is Samuel's son, David, David's wife Laura, and sons Walter, Harvey and James. David's surname was also transcribed as Lidnell.
