PICKLE, NEALY, HARRIS, SCOTT



Squire PICKLE, of Lincoln County, Tenn., was born in Bedford County January

27, 1815.  His parents, Henry and Rachel (NEALY) PICKLE, were born and

married in North Carolina.  They came to Bedford County, Tenn., soon after,

and there spent the remainder of their lives.  Our subject attended the

neighboring schools during the fall and winter, and after attaining his

majority became the architect of his own fortunes.  After his marriage to

Martha HARRIS, which occurred in 1840, he purchased 120 acres of land in

Bedford County, but four years later disposed of this land and came to

Lincoln County, where he now owns 188 acres of good land.  Mrs. PICKLE died

in 1860, having borne one daughter, now deceased.  In 1861 Mr. PICKLE

married Mrs. Harriet SCOTT.  Our subject and his wife are well-to-do in

worldly goods, as well as in the respect and esteem of their neighbors and

friends.  He is a Democrat, and is ever ready to support worthy

enterprises.  On his farm is a well seventy feet deep which was bored in

1883, the water having excellent mineral ingredients and possessing

superior medicinal qualities.  It was analyzed with the following results:

Saline sulphur, chloride of sodium, sulphate of sodium, carbonate of

sodium, chloride of magnesium, sulphate of magnesium, carbonate of

magnesium, sulphate of calcium, carbonate of calcium, also traces of

phosphates, iodine and bromine.
