In the 1860 census, his wife's name is Rosa M Webb (Rosa Mariah Collins according to another researcher). Lucretia's two sons reported in 1850 are in the household with matching ages. From the gap in children's ages, the next child, Joseph, age 6, apperars to be Rosa's first child with James,. From his reported age of 6 here, he was born about 1854.

Note that according to ages in the previous censuses and this 1920 census, Lucy has aged only 7 years since 1910. The 1900 and 1910 ages are consistent with her known birth date from family sources, 16 Aug 1893. In the 1920 census, Lucy is divorced from George Tugman, and is living with her two sons in Rock Lake Precinct, Platte County, Wyoming. She and George married some time about 1814, then moved to Platte County, Wyoming, before the birth of J D, who was 8 months old in January 1920. But in the census, they are reported as Divorced. George and Lucy are living in different locations in the same county. The children are with Lucy. It would seem likely they moved then divorced quickly after, perhaps over the stress of the move and relocation? Details on the divorce are missing from family tradition, and I have found no public documentation. Family tradition reports that George got the divorce from Lucy on the grounds of mental cruelty he had experienced. (Information from Loretta Gregory Gay, niece of Lucy and George.) Beyond this no details are known. 1920 Federal Census, Platte County, Wyoming, 7 February, Rock Lake, Platte, Wyoming, District 74, page 5B, Hse #85, Fam #87 Lucy Tugmon Housekeeper F W 23 Divorced TN TN TN David M Tugmon M W 5 OK OK TN J D Tugmon M W 8mos WY OK TN In this census the family name is written Tugmon, as is George's record. It is spelled Tugman on census entries for the previous Tugman generations and for George and Lucy's boys in later life. A Tugmon genealogy also spells the name consistently as Tugmon (referenced in some of the footnotes and Notes on some Tugman individuals.) In this census the birthplace of both Lucy's parents is reported as Tennessee, which is correct from other records and family sources. However, in 1930, when she is back in Oklahoma, and married to Lawrence Carter, her father is reported as born in Georgia. I cannot think of any explanation for that. Lucy married Lawrence Carter in Pasuls Valley, Oklahoma, on 1 March 1923.

Lucy is likely Richard's sister, named after their mother, Lucy Osborne Thweatt. This is strenghthened by the fact that in 1860, the only two persons in the household are R H Gregory and Archibald Gregory.

At the time of Mack's birth and death soon after, the family was living in Earl, Oklahoma Territory. One historical source indicates this was in J County, which later became Johnston County. In the Oklahoma Territory many if not all the counties were named simply with letters of the alphabet. Oklahoma Territory and Indian Territory were later merged into the new State of Oklahoma in 1907. -- "Oklahoma Counties and Nations," OK Gen Web, okgenweb.net However, modern Johnston County was created at the establishment of the State of Oklahoma, in what was then Chickasaw Naiton, which did not become a part of Oklahoma until the Indian Territory was merged with Oklahoma Territory in September 1907. So it appears Earl was actually in Chickasaw Nation at that time. This puzzling note about J County and Johnston County has been removed now in the revised and relocated OKGenWeb site. "Johnston County was created, at statehood, in 1907 and wass named for Douglas H. Johnston, governor of the Chickasaw Nation. It is located in southern Oklahoma and covers 645 square miles. The county seat is Tishomingo. The Chickasaw capitol building built in 1896 became the county courthouse." -- "Johnston County, OK," OKGenWeb, http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~okjohnst/

A marriage record is found for Mahulda in Fleming County, but the handwritten name is spelled Mahuda. Her sister Priscilla Jane Gregory named one of her daughters Mahulda, probably also indicating that that her sister's name was Mahulda. Also note that this marriage record reports that she is a widow. The better documented genealogies report her first husband as John Pearce or Pierce. But at least one reports that John Monroe Pierce died 15 Nov 1902 Fleming Co, Kentucky, which does not fit for a first husband. This would make John Pearce her next husband after John Plummer, whom she married in 1855. That means she was married three tiems, and we do nothave the name of the first husband.

Our thanks to Steve Squier for his analysis of the 1840 census listing for the household of Richard Gregory. another child is listed by Carolyn Cooper, but with no substantiating recor, named Miranda. A matching Malinda Gregory also appears in a marriage record with Thomas Denson, aboth of whose names are mentoined in a probate record for one William Gregory, for whom Richard Gregory was initially the administrator, but then died, and the new adminstrator appointed was Isaa Rinehart, the husbamnd of Richard's daughter Susan. Susan and Malinda appear to be sisters. There is no room, however, for Miranda or Malinda to fit with the names we know for children of Richard and Dorcas Gregory correlated with other records. Steve Squier has done fairly extensive research into the Gregorys that seem to comprise the family of Richard, which we have also reesarched and found addiotinal records and circumstantial evidence confirming the configuration of Richard's famliy. Steven's analysis of the 1840 census record for Richard Gregory's household, it seems that Malinda Gregory is also his daughter. The name Miranda may yet be another child or Richard and Dorcas Fishback who died before 1840. No record has been found in that name. 1840 Jefferson Co., TN male 50-59 = Richard Gregory female 50-59 = Dorcas Fishback [the unidentified son and Few are now out of the household, Few having been married in 1834] male 20-29 = Phillip Gregory (b. ~1817 VA) female 20-29 = Lucretia Gregory (b. ~1819 TN) female 20-29 = Mary Jane Gregory (b. ~1820 TN) female 15-19 = Susan Gregory (b. ~1821 TN) male 15-19 = James Henry Gregory (b.
