Sallie Hogan Randle Braved the Wilds of Henry County


Who Knew the first white woman settler in Henry County, Tennessee, was Sallie Hogan Randle? She was born October 5, 1796, and died May 27, 1869. She is buried in Clifty Cemetery about a mile off Hwy. 641 South on Clifty Road in Henry County. The two pictures I made recently are shown below. There are two headstones; one is the original and the other, more recent, one was placed there in her honor by Luzane Wynns Tayloe. I have also added these 2 pictures to her memorial page on the www.findagrave.com website. Submitted by Don Nichols.
