Lucy Ann married Ephraim Henry Austin (1820-1888) in Marshall County, Mississippi in 1844, but they seem soon to have come back to Henderson Co., Tennessee. Ephraim was a prosperous merchant and land owner. Both Ephraim and his eldest son, John James, served in the Confederate army.
The children of Lucy Ann and Ephraim were: John James Austin (1845-1917), Cynthia H. E. Austin (c. 1847), Margaret Mahalia Austin (1849-1923), Phoebe Ellen Austin (1851-1934), Dr. Alfred Franklin Austin (1853-1942), Eliza A. J. Austin (c. 1856), William C. Austin (c. 1858), Henry W. Austin (c. 1861), Lucinda A. Austin (c. 1865), and Robert Austin (c. 1871). I am still researching them.
Many thanks to Mary Jo, who originally created this memorial and kindly transferred it to me; to Barbara Hunter, who sponsored it; to Nicki Coffman, for the tombstone photos; and to Allan Beecham, for the pictures of Lucy & Ephraim.
