Hix (Hicks) In 1828 and 1836, Newsom Hix patented land South of Mount Andrew. In 1836 Elizabeth Hix also patented land in that vicinity. There is a grave in Corinth Baptist Cemetery of Elizabeth Allen Hicks, wife of R.J. Hicks, daughter of Bazel and Elizabeth Graves.The only date given is 13 April 1829, and there is no indication whether it is a birth or death date. If it is a death, the marker must have been placed many years later.( Memorial as a DOD, but headstone doesn't look right to me. Maybe generated or added later.
