Nancy Anne Shine Gurlie

She was born near what, at the time, was called Campbell's Station, now Farragut, Knox County, Tn. Came to New Orleans with her mother and siblings in late 1807, following her father. She was married in New Orleans, reportedly 1826, to Louis Francois Gurlie, who was born about 1803 in Louisiana, son of Claude Gurlie & Marie Louise Paillet. He disposed of property in New Orleans in 1859, and they apparently came to Pascagoula in about 1860. Louis died in the next decade. On the 1870 and 1880 censuses, Nancy is with Gurlie in-laws, Mary and Edouard. Death and place of burial is from Cemeteries of Jackson County Mississippi, 2008 Edition. It reads that no marker was found, but that the burial was earlier reported in Requiem Volume I, an earlier edition. She and sister Elizabeth wrote their brother, Admiral James/David Farragut during the Civil War years, relating how the blockade was making things difficult. He visited them after the war.* Reference: Find A Grave Memorial - SmartCopy: Jul 30 2021, 18:27:37 UTC
