David & Elizabeth "Bessie" (Lemons) Dye - 1885

David Dye was born 1816 in North Carolina.  A widower with seven children, he married Elizabeth Lemons on July 19, 1868, in Meigs County, Tennessee.  Between 1870 and 1880, the family moved to Piney Falls, Tennessee.  The children born to David and Elizabeth were Sarah Ann Dye (b.1870), Amanda Belle Dye (b.1872), Addison Dye (b.1874), William David Dye (b.1876), Reuben Dye (b.1877), Calvin Watson Dye (b.1877).  David became a widower for a second time when Elizabeth died between 1880 and 1890.  David married for a third time to Viannah Farr Goss prior to 1890.  David is not found in the 1900 U.S. Census, so is presumed deceased prior to that date.  Even though their graves are not specifically marked, David, Elizabeth and Viannah are all believed to be buried in Grandview's Mt. Sulphur Cemetery.
