If anyone has a Dekalb Co. Cemetery Book, can you please check and see if a Sarah Adcock born about 1886 and died around 1941 is listed in it. Looking for the cemetery and any information about her in it. Thanks Shelia

I have Adcocks in my line. Was this Sarah's maiden name Adcock? If so and she married she would most likely be listed under the married surname. I did look for Sarah Adcocks in the Dekalb Co. TN Cem. book but didn't find one that fit the time period you were asking for(birth & death wise)

Hi Marie,
I am looking for a Sarah Liza (Young) Adcock who was married to a Isaac Tildon Adcock and they lived in Dekalb Co. TN. Sarah Liza who went by "Liza" also, was still living in Dekalb Co. TN. in the 1930 census, one time she is listed as born 1876 and one census as born 1886.
There is a Sarah Adcock 1886-1941 buried in the Johnson Chapel Cemetery in Dekalb Co. TN., we are wondering if this is the Sarah Liza (Young) Adcock, that we are looking for.
This is not my line, I am helping my neighbor, who is an Adcock, that decends, from Isaac Tildon and Sarah Liza (Young) Adcock's son Berger Adcock born in 1901 in Dekalb Co. TN. Thanks for any help and for your time. Shelia

The Sarah Adcock that is buried at the Johnson's Chapel shows the yrs as Dec 22, 1874 --Jan 20 1946.

I do see in the same cemetery:

Burger M. Adcock Sept 1 1901-Dec 22 1968
Mary E. Adcock Feb 18 1906-Nov 25 1978

This is from the entries that are in the Dekalb Co TN Cem. Book compiled by Doris Gilbert.

Hope this helps

Marie,
In the 1900 Dekalb Co. TN. census, Sarah is listed as born June 1876, but in one or two of the census she seemed to get a little younger, born abt. 1886.. Mr. Adcock made a trip to the Johnson Chapel Cemetery sometime back, saw Sarah's headstone, didn't write the dates down, but was trying to give me the dates-1886-1941 from memory, so I guess he was a little off on the dates. Burger/Berger and Mary E.(Johnson) Adcock are his grandparents. Sarah Adcock, would be his great grandmother, if that is the Sarah Liza Adcock, that was Burger Adcock's mother. My neighbor knew nothing about his great grandmother, and I was just trying to help him find his ancestors. I believe that could be the Sarah Adcock, that we are looking for. Thank You, that has been helpful. Shelia
