Annie "Ann" Hunt was born in 1849 in AL according to Census records. She was my great-grandmother. We do not know who her parents were and not much is known about her until she married Isaac A. Van Hoose 1856-1939 in Hardin County, TN, May 13, 1875, recorded in Courthouse, Savannah, TN. They had three daughters: Hattie "Hat" b. 1876; Elizabeth Anna b. 1879; & Nellie Estelle b. 1881, all born in Hardin County, TN. For more information, please check family links on FindAGrave.
Not too long after their 3rd child was born the family came apart--not sure of the details but Annie was no longer in the family. We are uncertain as to what happened--death or divorce. A census report for 1900 shows she was in the household of her oldest daughter, Cyrene Hattie Smith (Bluford)
In Hardin County, TN. We have no family record of a funeral or otherwise. In order to document and pull together the known facts and concerns we assume she is buried in Hardin
County, TN, in an unmarked grave, Her residence as late as 1900 in
Hardin County in the Pyburn community of Hardin County, TN!
Ike Van Hoose went on to remarry prior to 1890 and with his new wife Arminta "Mentie" Carson they raised a large family. They made their home in the Saltillo community of Hardin County, TN. Ike was a hard worker and became rather successful in farming and in making crossties. With an abundance of hardwood timber and the TN River nearby he just simply would walk out of his fields and make (hand-hue) a wagon load of crossties for which there was always a market--Saltillo being one of the of the Old Riverboat stops frequented by river traffic which daily ran North, down the
TN River.
In the 1920's a common sight in downtown Saltillo was Ike driving a team of horses with a wagon load of freshly hewn crossties on his way to the tie yard on the bank of the river. He walked behind his wagon on those cold, wintery mornings and frequently was observed to be blowing his warm breath into those cold, cold bare hands. Only eternity may reveal the many hardships and suffering by family members who came earlier.
Ike accumulated property and managed to provide an inheritance for each of his children in 1939. Mammy Gann (Elizabeth) my grandmother bought a small farm (33acres) and house one mile from Saltillo with $600. of the money from her Dad's estate.
******************Addendum 5-5-2016. New information*****************
First, Isaac A Vanhoose was married twice. On the 13th of May 1875, Isaac obtained a license to marry Miss Annie Hunt. The witness or bondsman was James L Hobbs. I find James as the 25 years old son of John and Sarah Hobbs living in the first Civil District of Hardin County in 1870. Their closest neighbor family I recognize is that of T. F. Pitts who lived on Hardins Creek near where Ray Phillips used to live. I know nothing about this family. The marriage was never solemnized by a J P or Minister as is usually the case. I don’t know if they were legally married or not. In any case, in 1880, they lived in the 3rd C D, near Burnt Church. Some of his neighbors were Jeff Jerrolds and my g.g. grandfather, Jemes Dickson. They had three children: Hattie Cyrena, born 1876, married Buford or Bluford Smith; Elizabeth Anna “Bettie,” born 1879, married William Marion Gann and Nellie Estell, 1881-1952, married James T Harvey in 1903. Isaac and Annie Hunt parted ways between 1881 and 1900. In 1900, Annie Hunt, age 51, is living with her daughter Hattie Vanhoose Smith and she listed herself as being a widow. Of course, she could have gotten married and lost her husband in that 10 year period since she and Ike parted ways. I find no further record of Annie Hunt after 1900.

On the 13th of October 1889, I A Vanhoose was married to Mintie (Armintha P ) Carson in Lauderdale Co., AL. Their children were: Bartley Carroll, 1891-1935; James L, 1893-1909; Willie Oma, 1894-1953; Gabriel Lancaster “Lank,”1895-1970; May A, 1898; Charley, 1899; John Alex, 1900-1918 and Sidney, 1901-1984.

I think you probably know most or all of the above. Per
