Looking for information on Milissa/Malissa (?) Nash/Hatcher/Moore who was in Dyer Co., TN. bef. 1850 and continued to live there until sometime after 1880.
Dyer Co., TN. 1850 census, dated 1850 Sept. 21, Microfilm #M432_877, stamped pg. #187B, lines #38 - #42.
hh #262 - #262, Civil Dist. #4
J. M. Ridens 25 m Grocerer PP$1300 TN.
M. C. Ridens 16 f TN.
Milissa Hatcher 35 f TN.
John Nash 11 m TN.
Thomas Nash 9 m TN.
Believe M. C. Ridens was daughter of Milissa/Malissa (?) Nash/Hatcher, mother of John and Thomas Nash.
In searching the Dyer Co., TN. records I found the following deed:
Dyer County Deed Book J, pg. #434
Robert Moody To Louisa M. Hatcher -- Transfer -- Registered January 31st 1855 by Stephen D Whitten, RDC. "For and in consideration of the sum of Fifty Dollars to me in hand paid the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged I Robert MOODY of Dyer County State of Tennessee have bargained and sold and do hereby transfer and convey to Louisa M. HATCHER & her assigns all my right title claim and interest in to and over the following Tract or parcel of land situate lying and being in the second civil district of Dyer County Tennessee bounded as follows to Wit Beginning at the North West corner of William NASH's 250 Acre tract it being the South West corner of R.

SHELTON.....Certification: State of Tennessee, Dyer County. " Personally appeared before me Robert M. TARRANT Clerk of the County Court of Said County Robert MOODY the within named bargainer with whom I am personally acquainted and acknowledged the execution of this Deed of Conveyance for the purposes therein contained Witness my hand at office this 27th day of January AD 1855".....Recd Jany 27th 1855. Signed: R. M. TARRANT Clerk At 2 O Clock PM.
Louisa M. Hatcher, on the above deed, appears to be the former wife of William Nash, dec'd. My Malissa Hatcher was the only Hatcher listed on the Dyer Co., TN. 1850 census and no female Nash was listed on this census having the initials L. or L. M. or the first name of Louisa/Louise. There was a Martha Nash listed on the 1850 Dyer Co., TN. census but she was 19 yrs. old and married to John Nash. Are Malissa Hatcher and Louisa M. Hatcher one and the same person?
Milissa married John L. Moore in Dyer Co., TN. ca. 1859. They were listed on the 1860 - 1870 Dyer Co., TN. censuses (Drucilla, John's 1st wife, apparently died in Dyer co., TN. bet. 1851 - 1858). John L. Moore was b. ca. 1803 in NC. d. bet. 1874 - 1877 Dyer Co., TN. Milissa (listed as Malissa Moore) was living with son Rev. John R. Nash on 1880 Dyer Co., TN. census.

Any help in identifying this Nash/Hatcher/Moore family very much appreciated.
