Louisa D. "Eliza" Flynns Lick, Jackson County, Tennessee

I am trying to find information on the Jackson family that lived in Jackson County. It is TOUGH!!

Louisa D. "Eliza" Jackson was my husband's ggrandmother.

I have found Edward (25) and Feriby (17) Jackson with Louisa Jackson at 8 months old in the 1850 Dist 14, Jackson County, TN.

I have found Ed (34) and Pheriby Jackson (27) with Eliza at 10, Nancy at 8, Elizabeth at 7, Sarah at 5, Scentha at 4 and Margaret at 2 in Dist 10 of the 1860 Flynn's Lick, Jackson County, TN census.

I have found the following death information on Eliza, and I'm 99% certain this is my Eliza, as she was living with my husband's grandfather in Putnam County, TN in 1930 at the age of 80. The census was taken 2 months before this death record date.

Source: http://files.usgwarchives.org/tn/putnam/vitals/deaths/dc1930.txt

Certificate: #16841 Deceased: Eliza D. Meadows Birth: 12 Mar 1850 Birth Place: TN Death: 16 Jun 1930 Father: Ed Jackson Father's Birth Place: TN Mother: Lou Bilbury Mother's Birth Place: TN Cemetery: France Cemetery , White County.

I have found several Jackson County Court records that mention an Eliza Jackson, Eliza Osborn, Eliza Keith, Eliza Richardson. The Eliza in the Court records married at least 3 times. What I don't know is whether or not the Eliza in the Jackson County Court records is my "Eliza" or another Eliza Jackson that lived in Jackson County.

If this is the same Eliza, she would have married a Charles "Charlie" Meadows sometime between 1885-1886, however, while I have marriage records for Eliza with Osborn, Keith and Richardson, I can find nothing on my husband's ggrandparents' marriage.

I am so hoping that some of these names/details jog someone's memory. ANY help would be appreciated.
