LETTER:
Dear Mr. Ogle
Sorry to take so long in answering your letter, but things have
piled up. As yet, I can not connnect your family to the main branch,
but it is a pretty good bet that your father is descended form either
the Sevier Co., Tennessee, or the S. W. Va. Ogles.
I hope you continue to try and find the family Bible, since if, I
could find your grandfather's name, and place of living, I am almost
certain I can connect you.
I've written to Fred Ogle, as you suggested, twice, but he never
answered.
Could you please send me the names, birth dates, etc. of your
brothers and sisters children, including their marriage partners, if
any. I'd like to have your branch complete when I do get them
connected.
As you find information, just drop it in the mail. Don't need a
formal letter each time if you don't wish.

resided:
From the Dickson County Handbook:
Cumberland Furnace 37051 The village of Cumberland Furnace grew up
about the iron furnace operation, first built by General James
Robertson about 1793. Cannon balls used by Andrew Jackson's troops at
the battle of New Orleans were molded here under the supervision of
Montgomery Bell, who took over the iron works after Robertson.
About 1820, Anthony W. Vanleer purchased the furnace from Bell
and it continued in operation until 15 October 1862 when Fort
Donelson, in Stewart County, fell to the Federal troops. Cumberland
Furnace became a temporary refuge for Confederate soldiers retreating
before the Union Army's advance.

Buried:
According to his son Louis, Sam Ogle was a hard working, well
thought of man, who had but one prayer, "an unbroken circle around
God's throne".

Anna (daughter of Jesse Milton MITCHELL and Permelia Adeline JACKSON) was born on 13 Jul 1884 in Dickson County, Tennessee; died on 20 Sep 1930 in Dickson County, Tennessee; was buried in Dickson County, Tennessee.
