John Henderson Haggard was my great-grandfather and was the husband of Fannie Mai Warner Haggard and father of Margaret Elizabeth Haggard Caruthers Pope, mother of my mother, Elwyn (Evelyn) Tryphenia Caruthers Thompson Smallwood. His parents were James Richard Haggard and Mary Ridener (found in marriage book as Ridinger). He was a life-long resident of Wartrace (Bedford) TN. He was a contractor and built the house in which he and Fannie Mai lived. Writing on death certificate is illegible. All I can make out says "until after death. Cause of death unknown."
Burial:Hollywood Cemetery , Wartrace, Bedford County, Tennessee, USA
