William Benjamin Gleaves4 Born5 ca 1798 Davidson County, Tennessee Married: 1. Harriet Lumpkins/Simpkins6 Nov 20, 1826 Wilson County, Tennessee 1 HHB: This almost verifies what I had always thought: That he died before New Hope Baptist Church was formed in Nov 1846. We do not know the exact date of his death, but it was before April 1849. Several of his family were active in this church but his name is not found in the records. Since he wrote his Will on Dec 5, 1846, he may have been ill and unable to participate in church activities. 2 ASH: 1223 acres acquired; 519 acres given to sons 3 As stated in Thomas’ letter 4 Most information from: Lois D.

Gleaves, probably as early as 1984. Glen Gleaves of Sayre, Oklahoma says: o Glen is grandson of Thomas B. Gleaves. o Thomas B. Gleaves chased Lucinda’s killer to the panhandle of Oklahoma, caught up with him and hanged him there. Thomas returned to Tennessee and married Nancy Ann Burnham. o T.

  • Tennessee State Library and Archives J. Percy Priest Papers
    State of Tennessee Department of State Tennessee State Library and Archives J. Percy Priest Papers, approximately 1920-1974 COLLECTION SUMMARY Creator: Priest, J. Percy (James Percy), 1900-1956 Inclusive Dates: approximately 1920-1974, bulk 1940-1968 Scope & Content: Consists of items related to J. Percy Priest (1900-1956) of Maury and Davidson counties. He was a newspaper journalist and United States Representative from the Fifth Congressional District of Tennessee (Nashville) from 1941 until his death in 1956. The papers cover Priest’s Congressional career (1940-56) and various honors he received both before and after his death (most notably, a 1954 Civitan Club “Roast” and the 1968 dedication of the J. Percy Priest Dam and Reservoir). The collection consists primarily of Priest’s political speeches, dated and placed in sequential order wherever possible. Correspondence, clippings, and photographs are also included. Of particular significance are a few early photos, taken when Priest was just starting out as a teacher, as well as many photographs, both formal and informal, taken during his Congressional career, including one autographed to Priest by Harry S. Truman. Some of the most delightful images show Priest singing with other Congressmen, or clog dancing while Albert Gore, Sr., plays the fiddle. Much of the correspondence consists of letters of support from constituents, but a significant portion of the letters and telegrams are expressions of condolence to Priest’s family after his death. Correspondents include such dignitaries as Alben W. Barkley, Billy Graham, Lyndon B. Johnson, Frank Clement, Richard M. Nixon, Adlai Stevenson, Strom Thurmond, Harry S. Truman, and Jack Knox, who shared a copy of one of his political cartoons.

  • Party Leaders in the United States Congress, 1789-2019
    Party Leaders in the United States Congress, 1789-2019 Updated September 4, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL30567 Party Leaders in the United States Congress, 1789-2019 Summary This report briefly describes current responsibilities and selection mechanisms for 15 House and Senate party leadership posts and provides tables with historical data, including service dates, party affiliation, and other information for each. Tables have been updated as of the report’s issuance date to reflect leadership changes. Although party divisions appeared almost from the First Congress, the formally structured party leadership organizations now taken for granted are a relatively modern development. Constitutionally specified leaders, namely the Speaker of the House and the President pro tempore of the Senate, can be identified since the First Congress. Other leadership posts, however, were not formally recognized until about the middle of the 19th century, and some are 20th-century creations. In the earliest Congresses, those House Members who took some role in leading their parties were often designated by the President as his spokesperson in the chamber. By the early 1800s, an informal system developed when the Speaker began naming his lieutenant to chair one of the most influential House committees. Eventually, other Members wielded significant influence via other committee posts (e.g., the post-1880 Committee on Rules). By the end of the 19th century, the formal position of floor leaders had been established in the House. The Senate was slower than the House to develop formal party leadership positions, and there are similar problems in identifying individual early leaders.
