I have started with this <a href="http://amateurmormonhistorian.blogspot.com/2009/09/cane-creek-membership-list.html" rel="nofollow">list</a> and I am working from there.<br /><br />The Colemans are not on my list of possible attendees, partly because I have not seen any of them with baptism dates prior to the Massacre, even Robert (please correct me if I am wrong). In addition, their home was about 20 miles from Cane Creek, far enough that there were two or three other branches in the area that were closer: Totty's Bend, Love's Branch and Shady Grove. I would expect they would have met at Shady Grove. If the meeting at Cane Creek was a special conference, I could easily see a wider attendence, but the meeting was not intended to be of anything out of the ordinary.<br /><br />Have you read "The Promise" by Gerogia Roberts Livingston Mowry? In it she describes collecting Coleman genealogy during a 1951 visit to Shady Grove. Then In 1958 she met Clair Coleman Groo who is, I am guessing, your great-grandmother. The story is quite interesting and if you don't already have it I can send it to you. Email me at bruce_crow[at]yahoo[dot]com and we can discuss it further.Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01543519825711760773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645379631135547997.post-67716531792623127662010-10-04T14:01:16.578-05:002010-10-04T14:01:16.578-05:00I am very interested in whether you ever discovere...I am very interested in whether you ever discovered a list of attendees and, if so, who was on it. After the massacre, my great-great-grandfather Robert Alexander Coleman helped Elder Roberts transport the bodies of the slain Elders to the Mount Pleasant train station, to be sent home to their families. The Colemans (Robert's parents & siblings) seem to have been residing in "Shady Grove" - Hickman, County - but I'm curious as to whether any of them may have been at the Condors' the day of the massacre since some of them were baptized around that time. Thanks for any info you could pass on!angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16307386374336720574noreply@blogger.com
