At the time the Church used rural delivery post office in the place of an address on membership records for nearly everyone except for "city dwellers." I could see Waverly as being the closest post office to Turkey Creek. I'll have to look that up.Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01543519825711760773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645379631135547997.post-61536750447554222112015-12-03T08:56:04.758-06:002015-12-03T08:56:04.758-06:00Generically, Humphreys County towns would have bee...Generically, Humphreys County towns would have been Waverly, Johnsonville (New Johnsonville after the dam was built on the Tennessee River to create Kentucky Lake) and McEwen. Turkey Creek is about 8 miles north of Waverly. Plus anyone living in Houston and Humphreys County were members of the Turkey Creek Branch until a building was purchased in Waverly and the Branch was renamed the Waverly Branch. The building for the Turkey Creek Branch was sold as a home and a couple of years later burned.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01771170179717741071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645379631135547997.post-31032623183252830022015-12-02T20:53:33.233-06:002015-12-02T20:53:33.233-06:00Yes, I have a baptism from each of those families ...Yes, I have a baptism from each of those families in 1916. Look for a post next year just on the Turkey Creek branch. But all three of those girls were living in Waverly when they were baptized instead of in Turkey Creek. Any guesses why?Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01543519825711760773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645379631135547997.post-58763888189882213152015-12-02T17:09:26.716-06:002015-12-02T17:09:26.716-06:00Bigham, Box & Browning were probably baptized ...Bigham, Box & Browning were probably baptized at Turkey Creek (Humphreys County) TN.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01771170179717741071noreply@blogger.com
