James and Susie Violett
The above pictures are those of James E. Violett and his second wife, Susie. James was head/superintendent
of the County Home according to the 1920 Census of Smith Co., Tn.. An aunt told me years ago that he had
a son who lived at the home and was retarded. The 1920 Census shows this family as:
D14-162 Violett, James E. Head/Superintendant M W 64 M Tennessee
D14-162 Violett, Susie Wife F W 44 M Tennessee
D14-162 Violett, John Inmate M W 43 S Tennessee
James Violett passed away July 20, 1920, a few months after the Census was taken and was buried
in the Burr Manning Cemetery out from the community of Punch/Watervale.
James Violette's parent's were Edwin Douglas Violett and Susannah E. Hazzard Violett and he was born
on Lost Creek out from the Rock City community. He was double first cousins to my ggrandmother,
Sarah Jane Violett Fisher, wife of Enoch Fisher. Her parents were Chapman Romel Violett and Jane
Harriet Hazzard. If I am not mistaken Sarah and her cousin, Jim, are buried very close to each other in
the Burr Manning Cemetery. |

View Person - Joseph Chapman Fisher
Note: Joseph Chapman Fisher's Rolling Store; Joseph Chapman Fisher Rolling Store
I really don't know when these snapshots were taken but I would imagine sometime in the 1920's.
They are interesting because the peddlar was a very handy man to come calling. When he came
down the creeks all the children would run out to greet him. He carried flour, sugar, coffee,
sewing supplys and many useful and needed items. This would and did save a trip into town.
Many farmers didn't have cars. It required time and effort to saddle up a wagon to go into town. |
