- Email from Kelly Himmel 4 Sep 2018:
I decided to try to work back from a person I believe to be the brother of Thomas Haile,
Leeman Haile (1802-1877-dates are on several websites without
references.). My evidence for this is purely based on circumstantial
evidence. Leeman married Marillis Edwards in Rutherford County, TN in
1832 and Thomas Haile named his first son Leeman and a daughter
Marillus. I found out that shortly afterward Leeman and Marillis
moved to Yalobusha County, MS. Leeman purchased several tracts of
land in Yalobusha and Grenada Cos. and became a merchant. Very
interestingly, he enlisted in the Union Army in the Civil War, despite
being old enough to avoid fighting for either side and living in place
where pro-Confederate sentiment was overwhelming.
There are a number of Haile burials in the Coffeyville (MS) City
Cemetery and the following two are of the most interest to me
Marillis Edwards Haile Died on August 20, 1836. The inscription is
Wife of Leeman Haile; Daughter of James and Nancy Edwards.
James Dudley Haile January 14, 1834-April 28, 1903 I assume to be
the son of Leeman and Marillis.
In the Stevens Cemetery in Yalobusha County there is another Haile
burial of interest:
Joseph Haile May 6, 1797-January 10, 1872. The inscription gives
his birthplace as Micklinburg (Mecklenburg) Co., Virginia . I believe
that Joseph might be a brother to Thomas and Leeman.
