I was sent a detailed Warmath genealogy in 1998 by Connie Lane, descendent of the Chesterfield Warmath line. She sent it with the note, "The Rosamon info came from Barbara Morgan and the Warmath info from John Warmath (except my branch)." The information that follows comes from her tree, though I will try to back it up by looking up and adding any official records I can find. Anything in italics in the first section was not part of Connie Lane's original tree, but should be supported by something in the second section.

John Wesley Warmath was a member CSA 47th Tennessee Infantry under Capt. Branche.

Information beyond this point not part of Connie Lane's original tree.

1887 Goodspeed Bibliographies, Gibson TN: "John W. Warmath is one of eight surviving members of a family of ten children born to Henry and Elizabeth (Fly) Warmath, who were born in North Carolina in 1799 and 1803 respectively. They came to Gibson County in 1832 and after 17 years' residence in that county, crossed the line into Madison County, where they afterward made their home. The father was a Whig and farmer and died in 1849. The mother is yet living and is 82-years-old. John W. was born February 20, 1834, and although his early education was limited, he afterward extended his abilities to algebra, botany, chemistry and several other of the higher branches. In 1861 he joined Capt. Branche's company Forty-seventh Tennessee Infantry, Confederate States Army, and was a faithful soldier for three years. After his return home he resumed farming and is now the owner of 568 acres of fertile land. He resided in Madison County until 1880, but has since made his home in Gibson County. In 1865 he married Martha A. Jones, born in 1845, and their union has resulted in the birth of seven boys. Mr. Warmath is a Democrat and he, wife and three children are members of the Missionary Baptist Church.

Rose Hill Cemetery in Gibson County TN has a tombstone for Aubrey D. Warmath 7-4-1883 to 9-8-1926. It is beside a tombstone transcribed as simply "Warmath 1-13-1913 to 1-3-1917"

Rose Hill also has buried beside each other Frank Warmath 7-20-1868 to 1-14-1922 and Beulah Almquist Warmath, wife of Frank Warmath, 4-16-1876 to 7-7-1937 and beside her is Garner Almquist 8-14-1881 to 1961, perhaps a brother.

Crockett County marriage records show Beulah Benton Almquist marrying J.F. "Warmuth" 9-8-1897. So perhaps John Wesley's son Julius Frank became JF became Frank.

There is a draft registration card from 1917 that may be for his son: Aubrey Dell Warmath, of Merigold, Bolivar County, MS, age 35, born 7-4-1883, clerk for Theo Perry of Merigold. Of medium build and medium height with gray eyes and dark hair. Next of kin: Mary Warmath of Merigold
