NOTE:

Not sure why names "Joseph Green" and "Martha Newberry" were listed, but it appears to be incorrect. There are no records of couple Joseph Green and Martha Newberry

NOTE:

The names were supplied by informant (Ellis's daughter: Maggie Green Whitlock).

So, the question is, why does Maggie think her paternal grandparents are Joseph Green and Martha Newberry. Maggie had Newberry relatives on her mother's side, through her aunt Mary Shrum Newberry.

but that's a streatch…

Lydia Shrum Green had a sister, Mary F Shrum, that married Lewis T Newberry.

Lewis T Newberry (son of William N Newberry, and Pheriba Landcaster).

Lewis Newberry and Mary F Shrum, lived primarily in Macon Co. TN.

Lewis Newberry had a sister, Martha J Newberry, who married Asa C. Lovelady.

Martha J Newberry and Asa C. Lovelady, lived primarily in Arkansas.

but this is still not a good explanation.
