Elisa,
I haven't corresponded with the Cardens from that area in couple of years.
About 3 years ago my husband, Thor Carden, his brother John Carden, John's
wife and myself went down and spent the entire day with Cardens from all
over the USA at Manchester, Coffee, TN. We went to the Carden Cemetery and
did a little cleaning up.
The last time I corresponded with Tommy Allen (seller of the book) is listed
below. He had about 100 books left at that time. If he doesn't respond let
me know.

Hello,
I believe that you ordered a Carden Cemetery Book from my 8th grade class.
Could you list on your site that we still have about 100 of those left. We
are running somewhat short of money to carry on this project year after year
as my wife had an accident that caused me to be unable to help the kids get
out another booklet. If so:
Tommy Allen
510 Wanda Lane
Tullahoma, Tennessee 37388
$5.00
$1.50 postage
$6.50 Total
Checks payable to East Middle School and not to me personally.
-----------------------------------------------
I did indeed put this information up on my WebPages. You can still see it
and a map to the cemetery.
http://www.tcarden.com/tree/ensor/CardenCemetery.html
There was also another Carden from Manchester that we called the "Grouch"
whose real name is James Jones. He is an artist. I don't have a current
email address for him though. But here was his snail mail address a few
years ago.
James A Jones
681 Matts Hollow Road
Manchester
Tennessee 37355-9520
Telephone number 615- 728- 3484
I know this is not very much help. But maybe someone from the local
library could help. Their web address is:
http://www.coffeecountylibrary.org/
Their circulation and information telephone number is 931-723-5143 and our
fax number is 931-723-0713. Both Tommy Allen and James Jones researched
there a lot so someone at the library might know them. It is a small town.
Also the Director of the Library is Sherryl Roberts ccmpldir(a)charter.net

Elisa,
The Carden Cemetery Book shows a photo of Elizabeth Fuller Carden's
gravestone on the top half of the page. All the stone says is :
GRANDMOTHER
WIFE OF
JAMES CARDEN
On the bottom half of the same page it says:
Elizabeth Fuller was from North Carolina. She married James Carden b.
1750,
Goochland County, Virginia. Elizabeth Fuller was born 1801. James
died
Coffee County.
Children:
1.) Lewis Carden born 5/17/1809
2.) Reuben Carden born 1805, died 1852 in Coffee County, TN.
3.) John Carden
4.) James J. Carden born 1787 and died in Arkansas, married Jane Morrow.
5.) Polly Carden
6.) Leonard C. Carden
7.) Mary A. (Fannie) Carden
8.) Martha Carden
9.) Robert Carden
10.) Elizabeth Carden
James Carden and Elizabeth Fuller moved from North Carolina to Franklin
County, Tennessee. They moved or were incorporated into Coffee County,
TN.
Elizabeth Fuller is buried in the Carden Cemetery in Coffee County. Her
tombstone is beside James Carden's tombstone. It reads: Grandmother,
Wife
of James Carden

--------------------------------
The Carden Cemetery Book shows photos of all the gravestones. It also
gives
a genealogy of the people buried in the graves. Even the unmarked
graves.
There are also photos of several Cardens when they were available.
There is
even a photo of James Carden born Sept 28, 1831. The book was a
project
of
East Middle School, Eighth Grade from Tullahoma, TN in 1997. The
Eighth
Graders cleaned and restored the Cemetery. It was overrun with vines
and
brush. The cemetery had been vandalized in the past and several
tombstones
were found broken and carried away from the cemetery. It is not
perfect
now
but the appearance is much better. The book has a little Coffee
County
History, the Carden Cemetery Warranty Deed, tombstone photos, live
photos of
the people buried, genealogy, photos of the kids cleaning the
cemetery
and
an index.

> Trish , i've wondered, does the cem. book give Elizabeth's maiden name
as
listed on her tombstone or how do you know for sure that this is
Elizabeth
Fuller? does the book give more info than just listings of
tombstones?
