Andrew Johnson (Jonce) GULLEY was born on 11 Mar 1844 or 1851 in , Marshall , Tennessee. He died on 16 Oct 1946 in , Franklin, Tennessee. He was buried in Shady Grove Cemetery, Flintville, Lincoln , Tennessee. He was described as tall and thin, and wore a beard. Andrew Johnson Gulley B. 11 March, 1844/51 D. 16 October, 1946
I wish I had written down all the stories that I have heard about Great-great grandpa. Since he died in 1946, there were plenty of people who knew him, and everything I have heard, was that he was a good man. I was told by Lawson Gulley, (who is the son of Russell and Pearl Gulley, Russell was the son of Andrew Johnson Gulley), that GGGrandpa could take a whip and pop a fly off the back of a horse, and never even hurt the horse.
Mildred Horton Langston (daughter of Dora Gulley and Paul Horton) said that she can remember him coming to her house, when she was a small girl, and holding her on his lap and singing to her and the rest of the children and telling them stories. She also said that he could read the Bible, but couldn't read anything else, which was unusual, because he carried the mail between Princeton, Alabama and Lynchburg, Tennessee, and, that when he got to one place, he would trade horses, and start on the trip back.
Lester Ray Limbaugh (son of Mattie Gulley and Robert Clarence "Link" Limbaugh) told of GGGrandpa laying on a hill in Lincoln Co., and watching a battle during the Civil War, led by Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest, and how the sound of the shots, sounded like popcorn popping.
My Dad,(William C. Ayers) told of GGGrandpa walking from Petersburg, Tennessee, to Tullahoma to try to enlist for the Confederate Army, and he said that he was turned down because he was too small, and, that he had told that he didn't start to grow until he was about eighteen. Also, of how he had talked of helping put brick on the old Petersburg School and many other buildings. Dad also would laugh as he would tell of helping him chop wood one day when he, himself was only about twenty-one, and GGGandpa was about one hundred, and that he had gotten so tired, and his back hurt so bad, that he had to go set down and rest but GGGrandpa just kept on chopping the wood, and said “I don't know what will ever come of this younger generation."
Mom, (Annie Ruth Hood Ayers) said that she had heard him tell of the time when the Union Army had come through, and taken all of their supplies, and how his sister had taken the dirt from the smoke house floor, and boiled it, to try to get the salt from it.
The last story that I remember, was told to me by my Great Aunt Sally Ayers Benson. She said, that when she was a girl, and still living at home, (the old Ayers home place, which was located in the Walnut Grove Community, of Franklin County, Tennessee), that Johnson Gulley had come to stay at their house for a week or two, to work there on the roof of the old grainery and barn, and of him making new shingles, with a broad axe. She talked about how hard he worked, and that he went home on the weekend, and came back the next week to work again. She said he always walked, and told of what a good man he was.
It was also told that he had walked five miles to his one hundredth (?) birthday party, which I think may have been about his ninety-third instead. In researching the family, I have never been able to find out his true age. I remember when I was a child hearing his daughter, Dora Horton saying, that he was not as old as people said he was, but others would argue the point. But, I believe that she may have very well been right. I have looked for him and the earliest time I can find him, is in the 1860, Marshall County, Tennessee Census, at age nine. He was not listed with this family, in the 1850 Census, so for this reason, I believe he was not actually born until about 1851. In every census, and other records, his birth date is different, but, since this is the first record of him, that I or anyone else who has been searching has been able to find, I believe 1851 to be correct. This would have also explain why he was so small when he went to register for the Confederate Army, and could also explain why he didn't start to grow until he was eighteen, because he wasn't actually that old. Also, at that time, children had a lot more responsibility placed on them at a very early age. They had to do their part to help the family, and they grew up faster mentally, but maybe not physically.
I know one thing for sure about him, and that is that he lived through some tough times, and worked hard all of his life.
I have more info on his family, but I will add that later, since I am now short on time.

Nannie was a sweet, pretty, little lady. She always wore her hair pulled straight back in a 'bun', and when she went to church, she would wear gloves and a hat, and she always had on 'earbob's',( which were what most people called earrings then) with a matching necklace. Her last few years, she wore her hair short.
I use to love to spend the night at Nannie's house. She was a good cook, and I remember how she loved anything with lemon flavor. She would have a lemon custard ice cream, lemon flavored sugar cookies, lemon cake....well you get the picture. She loved lemon. I also remember her telling me, that if you didn't know what to cook that day, to decide what kind of potatoes you wanted, and plan around that.
We always went there for Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas, and those were special times. On Easter, we would spend all afternoon hiding eggs, and if it rained it didn't stop us, we just hid them in the house. Sometimes, they got hidden a little to well, and that wasn't very pleasent for Nannie and Grandad, when they would start to smell, and she would find them stuck somewhere in the house, where we had not found them. But, whatever the holiday, we always had a feast, and Nannie would always be the last one to eat. She was running around trying to make sure everyone else had what they wanted first.
All of us who knew her, and any of our other family members who had passed on, have special memories of her and them. Parents: Walter Samuel GULLEY and Mary Florence BROWN.

She always made me feel special, and I always loved her so much. Parents: Andrew Johnson (Jonce) GULLEY and Martha Ann PRINCE.

I remember when I was a little girl, and how excited I got, when I would see Greatgrandpa Walter Gulley, walking up the street, toward our house. He didn't have a car, and almost every afternoon, after someone would come in to take care of Grandma, he would walk to town. They lived about three blocks over from us, so he would always pass our house. Grandpa always had candy in his pocket, or chewing gum, and he would always give us a piece. It wasn't long though, until all of the neighborhood children were calling him "grandpa" too, and they would run to meet him, and beg for candy, so by the time he got to our house, the candy would all be gone.
He had two old banjo's hanging on the old screened in back porch, and when I would go to see him and grandma, I would ask him to play for me. He would get one down, and start to pluck away on it, and stomp his foot and grin. To me it sounded great, but, I was told by others, in later years, that he really didn't know how to play it very well. But, like I said before, I was a young kid, and it sounded great to me, and made me happy.
Grandpa was a good man, and he really loved Grandma, Mary Florence. He took such good care of her, and after she died, he just seemed to loose the will to live, and he died about a year and a half, after she did. I really loved them both , and even as I write this, I miss them so much, and long to be able to see them again. Parents: Andrew Johnson (Jonce) GULLEY and Martha Ann PRINCE.
