        "To the Honorable the General Assembly of the State of Tennessee now in session.

        "The petition of Nancy Barefoot most Humbly sheweth that your petitioner intermarried with Dillon W. H. Barefoot in the year 1817. That about six months after our marriage and before we became housekeepers my said husband took to rambling and your petitioner hearing of him at Knoxville went from her father's house in Maury County to that place in hopes to engage his attention and induce him to settle, he promised to do so and we settled in Sequatchie valley but he having no dosposition to provide a living by industry I soon became in a distressed situation from poverty and went and returned to my father's house again in Maury County. In the course of last year I made another attempt to settle with him & try to make our living but within a few months he determined again to ramble & I once more returned to my father, he having declared his intention to go to South America and join the patriots & your petitioner not having heard of him in the course of this year, and being fully persuaded from former experience that he has no disposition to locate himself anywhere or use any existence to support wife and child, most humbly prays that your honourable body will grant her a divorce from her said husband, and your petitioner as in duty bound will ever pray."

Nancy Barefoot

"State of Tennessee, Maury County."

        "We the undersigned subscribers do certify that we have been acquainted with Dillin Barefoot about the time he was married to Nancy Choate the above petitioner, that he staid in the neighborhood but a few months after his marriage, and after that only settled down a few times after being absent several months. And we do further certify that we believe the statements made in the above petition to be true."

Prudence Choate married Stokely when her son, James Monroe Choate, was three years old. Prudence was a first cousin to Moses and Stokely.

From Ursula Cook. Info from Charlotte Nichols, Kenedy, TX.
"Uncle Jim, James Borroum Choate, said that his grandfather's parents were first cousins. Mom, Mary Jane Choate, said that Moses was her grandfather. All the recent Choate contacts say that Prudence was James Monroe Choate's mother and no one knew who his father was. Prudence married Stokely when JMC was a small child. Stokely was a first cousin to Prudence and probably a brother to Moses."
