| Notes |
- !Source: Letter of Wm. Miles Ponder, dated 27 Jan 1904, that there
were
four daughters in this family and 7 sons.
Source: Letter of Pat Saupe, dated 5 Nov 1988, noters that Leroy
Perkins,
a son in law of Abner Ponder, is identified in some of the deeds she
acquired in Bon Aqua, TN, when Abner was deeding his property to
Amos in Dec
1832. He had two persons living nearby witness for him: Leroy
Perkins, a
son in law, and Wm Penn Weems, another son-in-law?
!Clarissa Ponder first married Leroy Perkins and later Joseph Webb.
(Source
Hickman County Times, 13 Dec 1989)
on 13 Jan 1888 Clarissa Webb signed a deed in Hickman Co, TN along
with
J.T. and D.P. (perhaps her Webb Children?) deeding land to J.D. Lewis.
Perhaps descendants of Clarissa Ponder Perkins Webb may have the Abner
Ponder family Bible. Pat Saupe intends to try to locate it.
!Odalene Little Ponder in The Ponder of Europe and America, p 27,
notes
"At the age of 84, Clarissa gave an account of how she and her
little brother
watched their father's sheep as they grazed on "The Barrens." She
carried
a tin horn, so she could sound the alarm in case solves attacked.
If she
became lost, she was also supposed to sound the horn so that her
father could
find her. She also told of picking wild flowers and strawberries
around her
father's mill which was built in 1820 at the spring."
!Jerry Ponder notes in his Ponder family history, p ix, "In 1854
Clarissa
married Joseph T. Webb, a widower, with one son, J.T. Webb, probably
born in
1855. The Webb family lived in Pinewood in Hickman Co. Clarissa
Webb was
still living in 1899. The date of her death has not been established.
