MOTHER’S NAME AND DATE OF BIRTH: Elizabeth ("Betsy") Tatum Rickman, 28 Nov 1793, Sumner CO, TN
NOTES: This is from a copy of a Cartwright Bible Record:

"Jefferson Davis' mother was Jane Cook - Jane Cook and Adaline Cook Stovall's Mother were sisters - Therefore Adaline and Jeff were first cousins,  (Adaline Cook Stovall was Norman Lee Fox I's great-grandmother)" 
THIS IS NOT TRUE! I have never seen this in my research, but everything else I've found (including a birth record from Sumner County) gives Adaline's mother as Elizabeth Tatum Rickman, daughter of Mark Rickman and Mary Harper.

ADDITIONAL NOTES: Most of this is from a copy from  a Cartwright Family Bible sent to me from Mrs. Francis Fox of Elkton, KY, though I included supporting material from my grandmother, Rebecca Fox Leech (granddaughter of Rebecca Angeline Cartwright shown above), and materials from Davidson and Sumner Counties, TN.  I firmed up some dates from Logan County Marriage Records.  The census records help show where they moved and when.
