A lot of that was cobbled together from various on-line geneologies and Federal Census records. The John Andrew Haddix who lost an eye came from the WWI draft record card. Everything seems to tie in together. Closest relative being named Belle and all. Which reminds me, when I was searching I also found this:

In the 1930 Federal Census record of Lee City, Wolfe County, Kentucky, 2 April 1930 it showed

Haddix, Andy Head m/w 55 Farmer 1st married age 39
Haddix , Belle wife f/w 35 1st married age 19

And if this is Belle Taulbee, then guess who lives right next door........

Taulbee, J. Cornelis w/m 67 Farmer
Taulbee, Margarette w/f 63 wife

and

Taulbee, J. Willard w/m 27 Farmer
Taulbee, Vernie w/f 22 wife
Taulbee, Pearlie w/f 4 yrs 8 months daughter

Now, would that be Belle's Father and mother --- and brother and sister-in-law and niece?

The 1880 Federal Census lists 188 Taulbee's, the first 100 live in either Jackson and/or Frozen, Breathitt, Kentucky, or Bush Creek or Johnson Fork. Mary Belle Taulbee, age 3, is listed as the daughter of Samuel E.[Elsberry] Taulbee, age 34, and his wife Emley [Emily Emma McQuinn] Taulbee [b. Mar 1850, daguhter of Charles B. McQuinn b. abt 1820 and his wife, Esther b. abt 1826 and in 1850 were living in District 1, Breathitt, Ky].

I'm wandering again and still not finding military service.
