Manerva Zick
Manerva Zeak/Zick who married William Turner in Claiborne Co. I think all the Zeaks listed in the Claiborne Co marriage records were her siblings. I found them as Zick on one census (I think they were listed under Jacob Zick) in either Claiborne or Union Co, and I believe I found them listed under ZUCK in Grainger Co, too. Manerva's father supposedly died during the civil War. My grandmother told me that when she was a little girl she remembers her grandmother Manerva telling her that when her father left to join up with the Union army, he was whistling a song called "Hick's Farewell".
Date & Place:
in Claiborne, Tennessee USA
