I do not have any information on an L Frank
Coulter. If you have documentation that he was born in
Rutherford County he could be the son of
Anderson Coulter or one of the other Coulters who show up in
Rutherford County records. I haven’t found documentation on his children since
Anderson and his wife died before 1850.
I have census records for an L F
Coulter in
Fayette County, TN 1850 census in the W B
Stafford household; 1860 and 1870 census of
Shelby County, TN with wife E
Fannie Coulter. In 1860 he is in the household of J A
Coulter (?brother, cousin). 1830 Census of
Fayette has a John
Coulter, this may be a lead for you. I haven’t looked at the court records in
Fayette and
Shelby Counties. Ashley and Allen
Coulter son’s of
Henson Coulter were living in
Hardeman County in the 1830’s and 1840, which joins
Fayette Co.
Good
Luck,
