Biography

Mahulda was born about 1812. She was the daughter of William Hargis and Hannah Howell and was born in Tennessee.

Mahulda Hargis married about 1832 to John Richard Brooks (1811–1874) and they would have:

  1. Martha Elizabeth (Brooks) Tuck 1833–1921
  2. Lucas Thomas Brooks 1835–1909
  3. James M. Brooks 1838–1921
  4. Harriet Ropal (Brooks) Gammon 1841–1929
  5. David W. Brooks 1849–1903.

In 1850[1] she was living in Macon county, Tennessee.

They remained in the same area of Macon County, Tennessee in 1860 as well[2]

She died in Dec 1869 and was buried at John Richard Brooks Cemetery in Lafayette, Macon County, Tennessee, USA. [3]

Research Notes

I amended her marriage year from 1868, as They had children born as early as 1833, so it would be not be likely they would be married that late. as well I updated her birth year from 1795 and death year of 1865 to match her Tombstone. Do not believe all of these children are her, will come back.

Hargis-443 and Hargis-232 appear to represent the same person because: Same year of death and place. They both originally had the same birth year, but one was updated. Same names. The only big difference is the place of birth, but the only source points to the Tennessee and it is also the place of death.

Comparing Hargis-443 (L) and Hargis-232 (R) These appear to be the same person. They started out with the same birth year. Both died the same year in Macon TN. The main difference is the birth place and the only one with a source is Tennessee.
