In the book "Tennessee Cousins", by Worth S. Ray, page 356, there is a list of tombstone inscriptions from Madisonville, Monroe Co. TN. Included is: "MARY BAYLESS, wife of Col. Samuel Bayless, died March 21, 1843 at the age of 59 years. (She was born in 1788.)" I have seen many references to Col. Samuel Bayless, mostly relating to men under his command in the war of 1812. My impression is that in some of the Bayless reports it is assumed that this Col. Samuel Bayless is the Samuel Bayless who married Mary Nodding. The "facts" don't add up. It is a problem to watch out for. Should you figure out how this Col. fits into the family I would like to know. On the same page of that book there is a note that a Samuel Bayless married Mary Romsek, 27 Nov 1843. ... Earl Beaty, 3005 Stanford AVE, Boulder CO 80303 (303) 494-8713
