Tennie Milstead, the daughter of George Milstead and Ruth Rutledge, married James Franklin "Frank" Faulkner, son of William "Billy" Faulkner and Elizabeth "Bettie" Bandy, on 26 October 1876 in Lincoln Co., TN.

Her sister, Buenavista Ann "Annie," had already married William Calvin "Bud" Faulkner, Frank's brother, on New Year's Eve 1874. So sisters became sisters-in-law, while brothers became brothers-in-law!

Based on the census, Josephine Tennessee had multiple nicknames. "Tennie" appears on her death certificate, but "See" shows up on one of the censuses.
