    • ----------

      From "Goodspeed's History of Warren County", 1887, p.917:

      "James Webb, farmer and stock raiser, is the son of James and Mary (Webb) Webb, and was born in the Fifteenth Civil District of Warren County, Tenn., December 25, 1818.

      The father was born in the North Carolina about 1795, and was of English descent. He came to the county about 1813, and was one of the first settlers. He was a farmer, a Democrat and member of the Baptist Church. He died in April, 1877.

      The mother was native of North Carolina born about 1796, and also of English descent. She died about 1867.

      Our subject lived with his parents until the time of his marriage, which occurred Augst 25, 1842. Miss Mary Byars, a native of Warren County, Tenn., born in March, 1828, became his wife. She is the daughter of H. and J. Byars and by her marriage became the mother of sixteen children, eleven of whom are living: Malvina, Jane, Ascenith, A.J., H.B., Isham, G.H., James, Robert L., Mary E., Dovey and Joseph L. Those deceased are Thomas, Didama and three children that died in infancy.

      After marriage our subject began farming and now, by his good and judicious management, owns 1,200 acres of land. He has been elected constable of his district, also tax collector and justice of the peace at different time. At present he is tax assessor. He is a dedicated Democrat in politics and an excellent citizen."
