ZEPHANIAH MURRY (ZM) ATTERBERRY
--Z. M. was born while his parents lived in Kentucky, February 2, 1825, and was therefore nine years of age when the smoke of their camp-fire curled for the first time above the virgin prairies of Monroe county. He was reared in this county and obtained such an education, only, as could be had in the primitive schools of the period. But he learned enough for the ordinary practical purposes of life and grew up to be a farmer, an occupation he has always followed. In 1854, he married to Miss Josephine Dabney, a daughter of Bluford and Rebecca (Vickery) Dabney, originally of Kentucky. Four children have blessed this union: Elijah, Rebecca, the wife of J. H. Dawson; Lou, the wife of Walter Dickson, and Mattie, femme libre, at home. Mr. Atterbery has a good farm of 292 acres, which is comfortably and substantially improved. In 1865 he had the misfortune to lose his first wife, a most estimable lady, greatly loved in her family, and esteemed by all. To his present wife he was married in 1866. Her maiden name was Parris; she was a daughter of Elizabeth Parris, of Kentucky. He is a member of the Baptist Church, and his wife is a member of the Christian Church.
