I just started researching Jett, too. My great-grandmother was Sara C. Jett, born 12-16-1861 in Hancock, TN and who died 3-14-1919 in Illinois. Married to George Robert Suddeth (2nd wife, I think). They had 9 children, one of whom, Marissa Suddeth (7-15-1894 to 1-8-1975), was my grandmother. She told me that two of her brothers died as very small boys during an epidemic. She watched her mother,Sara, wash, dress and then put the two boys in coffins and push them out the door so they could be buried. I don't know which two brothers she spoke of, however. Good luck with your search.
