JOHN A. LOGAN ZACHARY was born August 15, 1885 in Overton County,
Tennessee, and died November 01, 1961 in Fentress County, Tennessee. He married
JULIA EVA WRIGHT circa 1906-1907. She was born January 06, 1890 in Fentress County,
Tennessee, and died February 18, 1950 in Fentress County, Tennessee. BOTH are buried in Taylor Place Cemetery,
Fentress County, Tennessee.
(WEBSITE NOTE: I can recall
seeing John Logan Zachary only once in 1959 when I was 7-years-old. If any family members have any stories to
tell or photos to share, I’d love to make them part of this post. Did he die in a house-fire or a barn-fire? Was he a lifelong farmer or did he have other
occupations?)

CALLIE ANN ZACHARY was born on April 25, 1920 in Overton County,
Tennessee.
(WEBSITE NOTE: I have
no further information on Callie Ann Zachary.
HELP!)
THOMAS CLAUDE ZACHARY, (WEBSITE NOTE: I have also seen records with “CLAUSE” as the
middle name, I believe “CLAUDE” is correct) was born on September 24, 1921, in
Overton Co, Tennessee. He died on
December 24, 1921, in Overton County, Tennessee.

Lapel, Indiana. She married Hubert Lavon
Parks (WEBSITE NOTE: Date unknown). She

GABELLA RUTH ZACHARY, b. February 26, 1927, Fentress Co,
Tennessee.
(WEBSITE NOTE: This
is under revision. She married Roy
Ownes, but I have no information as to when.)
JULIA DELTA ZACHARY, b. September 22, 1932, Overton Co,
Tennessee; d. May 11, 1934, Overton Co, Tennessee.
ZELTA ZACHARY, b. September 22, 1932, Overton Co, Tennessee;
d. 1932, Overton Co, Tennessee.
(WEBSITE NOTE: Do any
family members have any information (or here-say) on Julia Delta Zachary and/or
Zelta Zachary? If the records I found
are correct (many are not), it would appear they were twins; Zelta’s death is
listed as the same year she was born, and Julia Delta’s death is listed as
being 19-months after she was born. It
is possible that Zelta and Delta are the same child and that the records have
been mangled together.)
