Court August 7, 1746, proved by the oath of Gideon Marr. Deed Book 3, Page 199. Notes for MARY UNKNOWN: This Mary, wife of John who d. 1751, is often shown as Mary Johnson, and as daughter of Joseph Johnson. Like many others, I copy an individual to hopefully later prove the accuracy of the listing. This Mary has proven NOT to be the Mary Johnson dau of Joseph. I am grateful to researcher Katherine Woerner who pointed out that the Mary that was married to John Willingham d. 1751 (Will in Lunenburg Co., VA) was not the Mary Johnson, daughter of Joseph Johnson of Lunenburg, VA. This Joseph mentions a daughter in his will as Mary Willingham, but that Mary would be too young to be the wife of John who d. 1751. Court action Stephen Wood and Ann Wood Vs. Estate of Joseph Johnson of Lunenburg Co., Virginia Court, Sept 1761? Ann Johnson, daughter of Joseph Johnson ...dispute between Joseph and his son in law Stephen Wood and also with another of his sons-in-laws, Jarrell Willingham m 1855 Mary Johnson... see Lunenburg co. Court order book No.7 pages 117-119 for suit brought by Jarrel and Mary (Johnson) Willingham against Joseph Johnson, father of Mary on 3 Mar 1761 when Joseph Johnson's will was presented in court for probate, Stephen Wood, Jarrell Willingham and Joseph Williams were listed as the executor's sureties (Lunenburg Co. will book 2, p. 28. The above court action proves that Mary Johnson, daughter of Joseph Johnson with the 1761 will in Lunenburg Co., Virginia, is the wife of Jarrell Willingham. Jarrell Willingham B. 1 Aug 1734 is shown in the Bristol Parish, Prince George Co. Birth Records as the son of John Willingham (1751 will in Lunenburg Co., Virginia) and Mary. Katherine Woerner believes that it is possible that John could have also been married to a Mary Johnson, perhaps the sister of Joseph Johnson, son of Stephen Johnson, whose (Joseph) daughter, Mary, married Jarrell Willingham. So Mary Pate being his wife is not written in stone. It is also a possibly that he may have been married two times maybe first wife was Mary Johnson and second wife Mary Pate. Children of JOHN WILLINGHAM and MARY UNKNOWN are: 5. i. THOMAS3 WILLINGHAM, b. Abt. 1723; d. Abt. 1787. 6. ii. JOHN WILLINGHAM, b. Abt. 1725, Prince George Co. Virginia; d. Aft. 1799, Virginia. iii.

Notes for JOHN WILLINGHAM: My information on this John Willingham, b. 1725, is from the research of Nancy Leeg Jankowski and from Katherine Woerner. John Willingham bought land in Granville Co., North Carolina in 1758. He was on the tax list and land dealings there until 1767, then moved to Mecklenburg Co., Virginia. Children from Granville Co., North Carolina Tax list: Thomas b. 1746-1748; John b. 1750--1751; William, b. 1748-1749; Jarrell (Garrett of Kentucky?) b. ca 1753.

The last list was dated 1762 so he must have become 16 years old after June 1762 and before June 1764. His date of birth was 1746 - 1748.) 1765 Granville Co., NC tax John Willingham (1725) Nimrod Ellis Thomas Willingham (1746/48) 3 polls William Willingham (1748/49) 0 polls ( William now appears in the household of John Willingham but shows 0 poll probably an error. William did not appear on the 1764 list so if he is the son of John he must have been born between 1748 and 1749.) 1767 Granville Co., NC tax John Willingham (1725) William Willingham (1748/49) John Willingham (1750/51) 3 polls John Sr.'s son Thomas Jr. now 20 or 21 years old is taxed in his own households. John the son of John Sr. appears on a tax list for the first time now being 16 years old born 1750 or 1751. When John (1725) left Granville Co., NC he moved into Mecklenburg Co., VA. Here is a record of a sale by John (1725) that includes the names of some of his sons. 11 Jan 1770 John {I} Willingham of Mecklenburg Co. VA to William Willingham land in Granville Co., NC WITNESSES: Thomas Willingham (no mark), Jarral {+} (GARRETT OF KY?) Willingham, John {X} Willingham/Winningham. BOUNDARY: Gill . This appears to be John (1725) selling to his son William with his other three sons signing as witnesses. John (1725) would be about 45 years old. Katherine continues... There are also records that tie John b. ca 1750 with William with the 1797 Will Columbia Co., GA and with Isaac d. 1810 Columbia Co., GA. There are enough records to argue that Thomas of the 1819 Will Henderson Co., KY, Jarrett with Will KY, William 1798 Will GA, John d. 1818 GA, and Isaac d. 1810 GA are brothers and all sons of John b. ca 1725, son of John of 1751 Will VA.

Ann Johnson, daughter of Joseph Johnson ...dispute between Joseph and his son in law Stephen Wood and also with another of his sons-in-laws, Jarrell Willingham m 1855 Mary Johnson... see Lunenburg co. Court order book No.7 pages 117-119 for suit brought by Jarrel and Mary (Johnson) Willingham against Joseph Johnson, father of Mary on 3 Mar 1761 when Joseph Johnson's will was presented in court for probate, Stephen Wood, Jarrell Willingham and Joseph Williams were listed as the executor's sureties (Lunenburg Co. will book 2, p. 28. The above court action proves that Mary Johnson, daughter of Joseph Johnson with the 1761 will in Lunenburg Co., Virginia, is the wife of Jarrell Willingham. Jarrell Willingham B. 1 Aug 1734 is shown in the Bristol Parish, Prince George Co. Birth Records as the son of John Willingham (1751 will in Lunenburg Co., Virginia) and Mary. Katherine Woerner believes that it is possible that John could have also been married to a Mary Johnson, perhaps the sister of Joseph Johnson, son of Stephen Johnson, whose (Joseph) daughter, Mary, married Jarrell Willingham. So Mary Pate being his wife is not written in stone. It is also a possibly that he may have been married two times maybe first wife was Mary Johnson and second wife Mary Pate. 05-13-2000. This entry by Katrina M. Piper. Noting the continuing pattern that children, usually sons, but sometimes daughters, are given the middle name of their mother's maiden names, or even grandmother's maiden names. Could Pate have been the case? Children of JARRELL WILLINGHAM and MARY JOHNSON are: i. MILLY4 WILLINGHAM, d. Unknown. ii. NANCY WILLINGHAM, d. Unknown. 16. iii. FANNY WILLINGHAM, d. Unknown. iv.

From the research of Katherine Woerner, she found that there were 13 children in the marriage of Thomas Willingham to Judith Finch. Her findings on the 1800 Census, Oglethorper Co., Georgia, showed Child #1 not on 1800 census with Judah, may not have had a child of this age or this child has left home. Child #2 not on 1800 census with Judah, may not have had a child of this age or this child has left home. Children #3 & #4 are on census: two children 16-26 on census, 1 male and 1 female. Children #5, #6, #7, #8 are on census: 4 children 10-16 on census 2 males and 2 females. Children #9, #10, #11, #12, #13 are on census: 5 children <10 on the census; 2 males and 3 females> Children #7-13 - - Thomas, William, Betsey, Salley, Joyce, Charles, and James were named as minorchildren of THOMAS WILLINGHAM for the 1807 land lottery (b. >1807-21 = 1821) by Judith's brother, William Finch; #6 Nancy was named as an unmarried female age 21. 1807 One draw was given to THOMAS, WILLIAM, BETSEY, SALLEY, JOYCE, CHARLES and JAMES WILLINGHAM, orphans and minors of THOMAS WILLINGHAM, deceased, given in by WILLIAM FINCH, Capt. JOHN BEASELY'S Dist., Oglethorpe Co., GA. (Mary B. Warren - "Count Records, Oglethorpe Co" THE GEORGIA GENEALOGIST, p. 6) The children of Thomas Willingham and Judah Finch are listed below from youngest to oldest, #13 to #1. 13.

From Roger O. Willingham: Upson Co., GA: Elizabeth B. [Moore] Willingham application for pension being the widow of Thomas Willingham who was a substitute for William Willingham during the War of 1812. Mustered in from Jasper Co. in 1813. They were married in Baldwin Co. in 1815. [Thomas Willingham m. 1815 in Baldwin Co., GA to Elizabeth Moore, according to this application.] Charles and James Willingham are on the 1820 Baldwin Co., GA census; James goes to and remains in Upson Co., GA; James and Elizabeth are on the 1840 Upson Co. census, this would imply that Thomas died before 1840. This is probably Elizabeth Willingham, age 67, on the 1860 Upson Co., GA census, b. ca 1793. Elizabeth is on the 1850 Upson Co., GA census as follows: Elizabeth Willingham 58f 400 NCar [Elizabeth Moore m. 1813 Baldwin Co., GA Thomas Willingham.] Judah F. 32f GA [b. 1818] On 1860 Upson census with mother and 1870 Upson census with sister, Sarah. Sarah 31f GA [b. 1819] On 1860 Upson census with mother and 1870 Upson census with sister, Judah. Mary A. 18f GA [b. 1832] Henry M. 14m GA [b. 1836] This birth implies that Thomas Willingham died about 1836, probably in Upson Co., GA since Elizabeth is on the 1840 Upson Co. census. Where is Thomas on the 1820 and 1830 census? This family may be the Thomas Willingham 1830 Campbell Co., GA. 6. Nancy, age 21, unmarried, would have been 14 in 1800 and one of the females age 10-16 (b. 1786) 5. female, probably about 23 , would have been 16 in 1800 and one of the females age 10-16 (b. 1784) 4. Jesse, probably about 25, would have been 18 in 1800 and the male 16-26 (NOTE: I DON’T KNOW CORRECT ORDER OF CHILD 4 AND 3.) Jesse m. 25 Feb 1804 Polly Zuber (said to be daughter of Abraham); Jesse b. ca 1804-21=1783. I believe that this is the Jesse Willingham on the list of Oglethorpe Co. citizens eligible for the 1807 Land Lottery because his number is sequential with that of Judith Willingham. GEORGIA 1805 LAND LOTTERY FROM Oglethorpe Co. Jesse Willingham, #1397, B [one draw and it was blank] One draw indicates that this Jesse was at least 21 years old by March 1804 and that he was not married when he registered for the lottery; born by 1804-21=1783. Since Jesse, son of Jesse and Francis Hardman Willingham, was born in 1790, this is not the son of Jesse. This Jesse must be the son of Thomas and Judah Finch Willingham; note that his number is one less than that of Judith Willingham’s number. The MINOR children of Thomas and Judith were named for the 1807 lottery, but that may not be all of their children; some could have been 21 or older. Judith Willingham (widow) #1398 BB [two draws indicates that Judith was a widow with minor children.] This should be Judith Finch, widow of Thomas Willingham. 3. female, probably about 27, would have been 20 in 1800 and the female 16-26 (b. 1781) Is this Rebecca Willingham m. 18 July 1795 in Oglethorpe Co., GA to Isaac Zuber?

2. Don’t know whether a child. (Could be Jarrett m. 18 July 1801 in Greene Co., GA to Lukey Woods.) Jarrett b. ca 1801-21=1779. 1. Don’t know whether a child. (Could be Jeremiah of 1793 Wilkes Co., GA militia.) Jeremiah b. by 1793-16=1777. Jeremiah Willingham is a Capt. in the militia in Jasper Co., GA in 1809 [GA Archives]. QUESTION: Why are Jarrett and Jeremiah not on the 1805 land lottery list; they both were over 21 by 1804. Jarrett may have left GA before the lottery, but Jeremiah is a Capt. in the militia in Jasper Co., GA in 1809 [GA Archives]. Was Jeremiah the Jeremiah Willington in Greene Co., GA 1805 lottery? Is Jerrald of the marriage record the same as Jeremiah who married a Susan? Is Sukey Woods=Susey Woods? Did Jeremiah leave GA before the land lottery and then return to GA afterwards? Jeremiah was in the War 1812 as listed in the GA Archives; it appears that he and his brothers, Charles and Thomas served in the same unit.

Item- It is my will and desire that my aforesaid wife should keep and enjoy during her natural life or widowhood such a part of my Negroes, stock of every description and such a part of household and kitchen furniture that she may need or have a use for, the balance or overflow to be equally divided among my 6 children, namely: Catharine, John, Garett, Isaac, William and Elijah, at the death of my aforesaid wife, it is my will and desire that all and singular of the said estate not heretofore specified and bequeathed be equally divided between my six children as above named. And lastly, I leave my son John Executor to this my last will and testament. In testimony hereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this day and date above written. Signed Garett (X) Willingham. The paragraph below is speculation by Nancy Leeg Jankowski. Witnesses were William Jones, Senior and Hampton Jones. (Note) wonder if maybe Gartha's maiden name could have been Jones? Since Two Jones's witnessed the will? From records of Western Kentucky. it state that Jarrett was a Baptist minister. Gartha's maiden may have been Jones, a Wm. & Hampton Jones were witnesses to Garrett's will.

From the entry in the Bible showing GARNER as Nancy's surname, researcher Katherine Woerner went to work and has found a candidate for Nancy. The candidate's surname is spelled GARDNER instead of GARNER. Here are Katherines' notes as she presented them (Aug 2004). Katrina, I have found a candidate for the wife, Nancy Garner, of John Willingham; Nancy's name may have been Gardner. Searched my Columbia Co., GA records and here's what I came up with. No Garner, but did come up with Gardner and a candidate, Nancy Gardner, for Nancy Garner and a candidate, William Gardner, for her father. (Note: the John and Nancy Willingham Bible do give Nancy’s maiden name as Garner, but spelling of a surname has often been found in variations….kmp) Kiokee Baptist Church-----Abraham Marshall, William Willingham, Edmond Cartledge, John Landers, James Simms, Joseph Ray & Lewis Gardner, Trustees.

Katherine's research - I, too, have confidence in her research. Her partner in much of her research has been her sister, Joyce Jackson. The text.... "The Thos. Willingham family lived in the Jackson Co., GA area until abt. 1819 when they removed to Morgan Co,GA. Thomas remained on the tax list for Jackson Co. in 1820. Before 1830, they removed to Newton Co., GA. After 1840 they moved into Randolph Co., AL accompanying some of their grown children. Thos. died aft. 1850, and his wife Rebecca went to live with their daughter Mary Willingham Ray, wife of Elisha Ray, in Carroll Co. GA. Rebecca is listed there in the 1860 census. She died aft. 1860 and bef. 1870. She is not with Mary Willingham in the 1870 census of Gordon Co., GA where Mary is living next door to her daughter Clarkey, and Clarkey's husband, David C. Willingham. This list of children is based on the careful research of Katherine Woerner who believes there are other children that are as yet unnamed. These unnamed children would have been born in approx. 1801, 1803, 1815, 1817. I do not regard any of the children of Thomas Willingham and Rebecca Humphries as proved in the strict sense since there is not, to my knowledge, a will listing children or a family Bible that lists children. However this list of children was constructed by Katherine Woerner, a skilled Willingham researcher, and I have great confidence in her good judgement. The same would be true for the children of Charles Hardman Willingham, Thomas' brother.

Katrina, I recently put this proof together for my cousin. Since Jan (Knox) mentioned Nancy Willingham in her recent email to us, I'm going to share this proof with you... Katherine I will prove that Peace Willingham is not Palcy (Patcy with the "t" uncrossed as I've noticed is often done in those old documents---Patsy is a nickname for Martha). (A.) ³On a petition (Richmond Co. GA Oct 1788) from Frederick Brown setting forth that he is father in law (implying had married their mother) to two orphans (minors, named Angelina Willingham & Peace Willingham) & proposes that he may obtain letters of guardianship & to take the said orphans into his care & protection. It is ordered that this said Frederick Brown be appointed guardian of the personal estate of the orphans aforesaid...² [Read from RICHMOND CO., GA records by ROGER O. WILLINGHAM. "That petition was made in Richmond Co. GA Oct 1788." Roger] (B.) In Frederick Brown's will he refers to Angela and Peace as his "daughters"; they were his STEP-daughters and he was their guardian as proven by the above court record (A.) "To daughter, Peace Butts, wife of Jeremiah, $25.00 (P. Willingham m. 16 Jan 1806 to Jeremiah Butt in Columbia Co., GA [GA MARRIAGE RECORDS)] Jeremiah Butt on p. 192 1830 Warren Co., GA census. Jeremiah is not on the 1840 GA census index. Warrenton Cemetery located on Norwood St., Warrenton, Ga. Graves of Jeremiah Butt, age 77, died July 26, 1840, and Peace Willingham Butt, age 58 years, died Mar. 13, 1840] [ Will of Frederick Brown signed 1 Aug 1828, proved 17 Nov 1836, on p. 13 & 14 of Century of Columbia Co., GA, wills 1790-1890.] C. Since Frederick Brown called Peace Willingham Butt his "daughter" in his will, some people think that she is Peace Brown Butt-----NOT TRUE as proved by (A). The following proves that Peace Wright m. Abner Willingham and that Peace had a sister, Unity Wright. (C) From will of DIONYSIOUS WRIGHT : This will was written in Ninety Six District in South Carolina on 9 May 1779, it was recorded in Richmond Co. GA 20 March 1780, and proved in Richmond Co., GA 22 March 1780. [Copy of Will] "... son-in-law ABNOR WILLINGHAM and PEACE, his wife- five shillings ... wife ELIZABETH WRIGHT-rest and at her death this to go to daughter UNITY WRIGHT" The following proves that Unity Wright, daughter of Dionysious Wright and Elizabeth, did not marry and that her sister, Peace Wright Willingham, m. 2 Mr. Brown; (A), above, proves that she married Frederick Brown. (D) Unity Wright, sister of Peace, in her will signed 5 June 1788 and recorded in Richmond Co., GA left to the ³Children [note plural] of sister , PEACE BROWN [Note name Brown.]-remainder of estate². (copy of will) All of the above proves that Peace Wright married before Oct 1797 when the will of William Willingham was written in Columbia Co., GA naming his daughter, Palcy (Patcy) Willingham. Will dated 25 Oct 1797 and proved 11 Jan 1798 Columbia Co., GA; m. Nancy [Copy of will.] Wife, Nancy, and children are named in William¹s will. (E) Wife: Nancy. Children: (1) Elijah, (2) Thomas, (3) Frances (Fanney) (4) Elizabeth, (5) Beaverly, (6)George, (7) John, (8) William (9) Nancey (10) Caleph (11) Palcy (Martha "Patcy") (12) Judah (13) Isaac Willingham .

She was born 1785 in North Carolina, and died Bef. 1860. Notes for ISAAC WILLINGHAM: Isaac, a Virginian, was one of the first settlers in the Purchase. It was originally thought that this Isaac b. 1787 was married three times; first to Mary Collins, second, to Sarah Owen, and third, to Ann, maiden name unknown. New evidence from census images show that this may not be the case. The first marriage to Mary Collins is found in Kentucky marriage records. The Sarah Owen thought to be his 2nd wife was instead married to the Isaac Willingham b. 1808. Ann is found with Isaac on the 1850 US Census, (District 1, Graves, Kentucky; Roll: M432_201; Page: 458; Image: 510. I have not found a marriage record for Isaac and Ann.

Notes for MARY COLLINS WILLINGHAM: On the 1850 Mary Collins Willingham is living with her father Isaac, his wife Ann, and someone who appears to be W. Ross Willingham, age 12. Mary is listed as age 20. If so, this would make her year of birth about 1830, which is after the date of marriage between Isaac and Sarah Owen. Yet, we have the fact that her middle name is Collins which would indicate she would have been named for Mary Collins, first wife of Isaac.

Notes for ELIJAH WILLINGHAM: Elijah Willingham left a will on 17 June 1851 in Henderson County, Kentucky; In the Name of God Amen. I Elijah Willingham of Henderson County, Ky. do declair the following to be my last Will and Testament revoking all others.

Horses, Cattle, Hogs, Sheep and every description of property by me possessed. the Crops on hand and Crops growing during her natural life, except the tenements allotted to my Sons Lazarus Willingham and John Willingham which I wish them Continue in possession of and to be allotted to them in the final Division of my property. the residue of my land to be divide equally among my other children reserving the houses and that part of the farm whereon they are erected. my youngest Son Thomas Willingham I direct my executor to pay over the money when received from Turner? and Bridges for Tobacco Sold in my name for others as will be his by the sale bills to the proper person without delay or trouble. And lastly I appoint my friends Abraham Hatchett and Travis W. Davis Executors of this my last will and Testament. and hereby request the court to accept the same without security. Given under my hand an seal this 17th day of June 1851 D. L. Boswell Elijah Willingham (seal) Elisha D. Cummings.9 Research by Kenneth Willingham is very detailed and cites the above will for indentification of heirs of Elijah Willingham. Ken also cites the Report of the Division of the Land & Slaves of Elijah Willingham. This Report is dated Jan. 29, 30, & 31 1852 and lists the heirs as: 1. Heirs of Francis Willingham 2. Robert Willingham 3. Andrew Willingham 4. Heirs of John Willingham 5. Lazarus Willingham Mr. Kenneth Willingham offers this presentation: (1) Frances Willingham is not listed on the 1850 census under Elijah and Sarah, nor is she listed in the will. But............ Frances is easily identified as Elijah and Sarah's daughter by the following documents: (1) Henderson Co.Court Dec. 1851, "Ordered that Thomas Willingham be appointed Guardian of his infant chidlren, Sarah Ann Willingham, Frances Willingham, Elijah Willingahm and Margaret Willingham, who have some estate coming to them from their late mother Frances Willingham, dec'd. And thereupon the said Thomas Willingham and Robert Willingham and Thomas Willingham Jr. his sureties executed their Guardian bond in the penalty of three thousand dollars, conditioned according to law." (2) Henderson Marriage Register page 23 Dec. 25, 1818 " I certify that I married Thomas Willingham to Frances

Willingham on the 25th of Dec. 1828 by virtue of a license from your office. To clerk. Hend. Co.Ky. Thomas Downs, preacher". (2) Robert Willingham is NOT listed on the 1850 census under Elijah & Sarah, nor is he listed in the will. So...... At this time I can only speculate that Robert either lives in another county or that he has a middle name of "Thomas". Either way, Robert or Thomas, or Robert Thomas, as a Willingham attached to Elijah Willingham married to Sarah Weldon doesn't exist in Henderson Co.Ky. after the 1850 census and the settlement of the estate. (3) Andrew disappears from the 1860 Hend. Co.Ky. census but re-appears on the 1870 Hend.Co.Ky. census. (4) John is also easily identified as John W. Willingham m. to Mary E. Cummings, since he dies before the will is probated and settlement is made. The Report of the Division of the land and Slaves of Elijah Willingham dec'd dated Jan. 29,30, & 31, 1852 refer "We alloted to the heirs of John Willingham division No. 4 containing 100 acres." Since John C. Willingham is still alive up to and including the 1900 Henderson Co. Census, he can be eliminated as this son of Elijah. And, since John Willingham, Sr. is the only other John Willingham listed on the 1850 census and is in fact a brother to Elijah Willingham, he can be eliminated as this son of Elijah. John W. Willingham, nor his wife show up on the 1860 or later census. His chidlren Alves J. Taylor F. and Elijah do show up as wards of Edward Hagan on the 1860 census. (5) Lazarus is easily identified on the 1850 & 1860 Hend. Co.Ky. census since this is the only Lazarus on either census. and as Kenneth points out as well, Lazarus is listed in Elijah's will. Already having a copy of the will didn't mean as much until Kenneth's interpretation and the data from the Report of the Division of the Land & Slaves of Elijah Willingham. Thank you, Kenneth.

POE: I am uncertain about the two children Stephen Calvin Poe and Elbert Perry Poe. Their dates of birth are prior to the marriage date for first wife Mary Ann Willingham. The marriage was recorded in the family Bible of John Willingham and Nancy Garner Willingham as Dec 17, 1828. Perhaps before Mary Ann Willingham, dau of John and Nancy, married Calvin C. Poe, Calvin had already been married and had the two children Stephen and Elbert. This needs additional research.

Elizabeth and her family data was shared with me by Janie Healer Davis, descendant. From Janie: "Elizabeth lived with her daughter Susan Frances Cook Doan after the death of her second husband, Rev. Benjamin Young in 1898. The Doans (and Elizabeth) moved to West Texas, into the Pyron area in Scurry County, in the early 1900's from the Groesbeck area. They were listed on the 1900 Limestone County Census. Elizabeth died in1903. Hence, the reason Elizabeth Willingham Cook Young is buried at Pyron Cemetery in Scurry County, TX. The Doans later moved to Merkel in Taylor County, TX, where they raised their families."

Beginning in 2003, Janie and her mother have traveled throughout Texas meeting new-found relations in the Willingham and Cook lines of their family. Janie has taken numerous photos of cemeteries, headstones, etc., to have birth/death dates of family found. She and her mother enjoyed meeting their cousins, listening to their family stories, and learning about more descendants of Daniel Cook's Line Janie also garnered many copies of marriage bonds/certificates/licenses. Through Janie's grassroots efforts, family photos have been found and shared, and new friendships formed. It has been a wonderful testimony to the good and friendly people of Texas and the strength of family ties. - Katrina The probate for Daniel Cook's estate is recorded in Anderson County, Texas, Volume L, page 81. (researched by Janie) From Janie: Notice in the Probate it says DANIEL COOK DIED NEAR HIS RESIDENCE IN ANDERSON COUNTY, TEXAS. If, indeed, Daniel Cook was killed by a team of runaway horses, it would explain his death "near his residence". If he were actually sick, wouldn't he have died "at his residence"? Additionally, Daniel Cook left no will. A person of his financial stature (upon reading the entire probate), would have made provisions, which leads me to believe perhaps his death was untimely! This is the only piece of "evidence" we have to support those notions at this point. JHD (July, 2005) More About DANIEL RAYMOND COOK: Burial: Unknown, Old Bethel Cemetery, Anderson Co., Texas

Notes for BENJAMIN YOUNG: I was going back through some of the stuff Charlene sent and found the sheet that listed Benjamin Young's burial place! (I'm sorry, Charlene, I don't know how I missed it in the package when you sent it to me!) It's listed as an unnamed cemetery near Kirk (Limestone/McLennan Counties) about 5-1/2 miles from Mart, Texas. It lists Elder Benjamin Young, b. 9/07/1814, d. 8/15/1898. I'm currently in touch with two gentlemen who have postings on Ancestry.com about a Benjamin Young with the same birth and death dates. His first wife (?) was Rebecca Blewett and they had seven children (according to one of the guys). Now we know that Elizabeth wasn't out here in West Texas in 1903 because of Elder Benjamin Young's pastorate---he was dead and buried in Central Texas!...Janie Davis August 2003 More About BENJAMIN YOUNG: Burial: Unknown, Near Kirk, Texas.

This unit was also in the capture of Manasses Junction, the second Battle of Manasses, Harpers Ferry, Sharpsburg, Fredericksburg, and the Battle of Gettysburg.

Lookout Mountain, Concord Station, and Missionary Ridge, Tennessee. In March, 1864, the unit returned to Virginia. James lost his right index finger during the Battle of the Wilderness , May 6, 1864. He fought at Spotsylvania Courthouse, and the 47th Alabama Infantry was rear guard for General Robert E. Lee's army until he surrendered at Appomattox. Of 82 men who enlisted in Company G, only 16 were paroled at Appomattox. Family Legend was that he made shoes during the war. This was explained by the fact that General Longstreet's troops were desperate for shoes and clothes. He went among his troops and found tanners and cobblers and established a shoe factory. James Henry files for a Confederate Pension in 1887 in Jefferson County, Alabama, and renewed his pension there until 1896, when he filed in Colbert County, Alabama.

She married ELISHA RAY February 07, 1839 in Newton Co., Georgia370. He was born Abt. 1818, and died Abt. 1865. Notes for MARY WILLINGHAM: Please note - These careful research notes are from the database authored by Larry Gatlin through RootsWeb World Connect. It is titled, "The Willinghams -- 9-16-03" http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:2667810&id=I460 "An early family researcher of Mary Willingham Ray's line states that she is the daughter of Wm. Willingham and his wife Catherine Ann Unknown. This family probably lived in Carroll Co. GA originally but moved on to Benton Co.(later Calhoun Co),AL,by the 1850 census. In the 1850 census, two Mary Willinghams appear: one Mary ,age 33, is in the home of Wm. and Catherine Willingham in Benton Co., AL. The other Mary ,age 27, appears in the home of Elisha Ray in Campbell Co., GA, later Carroll Co. The latter Mary is Elisha's wife. In the 1860 census for Carroll Co., Ga, Rebecca Willingham ,age 77, is living with Elisha and Mary Willingham Ray and their children. She appears to be the widow of Thomas Willingham of Randolph Co., AL. In the 1850 census of Randolph Co., she is age 68. We know that Thomas Willingham married Rebecca Humphries, daughter of Joseph Humphries and Rebeckah Phelps. Hence, we assume Rebecca Humphries Willingham to be the mother of Mary Willingham Ray since she is residing with Elisha and Mary. A further bit of corrobating evidence may be the names of children: Clarkey Ann Rebecca b.1846 may be named after her grandmother, Rebecca Humphries Willingham. Her youngest brother is Elisha Thomas b. 1866 who could be named after his dad as well as his grandfather, Thomas Willingham. The name recurs: The eldest son of James Marion Ray b. 1839 is also Elisha Thomas, only two years younger than his uncle of the same name. There is no evidence that Mary Willingham, daughter of Wm. and Catherine Ann Willingham of Calhoun Co., AL, ever married. Certainly acc. to the 1880 census, four of her sisters were spinsters."

Parents John and Frances are in dwelling 311. Brother James and family are in dwelling 313. Elijahh is in 317, and John W. is in 318. In the 1850 census, it was not enumerated as to marital status. I feel the three females and one male are Thomas' children, and that perhaps he is widowed at this time. However, the female listed immediately following Thomas is two years younger than the next listed female. Perhaps Thomas had re-married, and a very young bride.

One of the children has a different surname - 11-year-old Martha Long. Seeing the age difference for Elizabeth and James, perhaps Martha is a step-daughter to James. On the 1860 US Census, (Div 2,, Hebbardsbille, Henderson Co., Kentucky, M653_373, pg 0) James is head of house. On the last line of his household is a 23-year-old Elijah Willingham.

Notes for THOMAS JEFFERSON OWEN: Memorial Record of Western Kentucky, Volume I and Volume II, Lewis Publishing Company, 1904, pp. 57-61. Carlisle Co. Thomas Jefferson Owen, the father of Dr. Owen, was born in Warren county, Kentucky, June 8, 1808, spent his youth under the parental roof and when a young man of twenty-two yrs removed to Calloway co. Kentucky, settling upon a tract of land which he occupied for about two yrs. He then sold that property and removed to Ballard Co, taking up his abode near the village of Cunningham, but later removed to a farm near Spring Hill, and here he spent many yrs, devoting his attention to agricultural pursuits with creditable and gratifying success. He married Miss Garthena Willingham, who was usually known by the given name of Gettie. Her father, Jarrett Willingham, was one of the pioneer settlers of Hickman Co. Mrs. Owen died in 1844, leaving three children: Margaret Elizabeth, who became the wife of Joel B. Reese and died in 1902; John Reese, whose name introduces this record; and James Thomas, who died in 1851 aged nine years and some months. The father, long surviving his wife, died at the home of {his father}, Dr. Owens, in Arlington, on the 22d of Dec 1888, having passed the 18th milestone on the journey of life. Both were laid to rest in the family graveyard upon the old home farm near Spring Hill.

I have no documentation regarding Alexander H. Willingham's middle name. kmpiper Alexander H. Willingham, was a native of Henderson Co., Kentucky., born in 1809, the son of Isaac Willingham and his first wife Mary Collins. Isaac was a Virginian and one of the first settlers in the purchase. Alexander was a State senator at the time of his death in Webster Co., Kentucky. It was Alexander that carried the first United States mail from Wadesboro to Iron Banks (now Columbus), Kentucky. He was sheriff many years, and six times he represented Graves Co. in the state legislature. Alexander H. was thrice married. With his first wife Emily, they had Pulaski M. Willingham. Children from his second marriage to Mary Murray were: William Jerome, James Murray, Benton Polk, Robert Alexander, Mary E., Nancy E., and Amy J. Willingham. Children with his third wife Elizabeth Campbell were: Kittie A., Campbell H., Lucy A. and Susan A. and possibly another Alexander - Alexander L. b. abt 1857.

I do not know the details behind this difference. Some people list Amy J. as child of Elizabeth Campbell's marriage to Alexander H. Willingham. It would certainly depend on which age was correct. Having seen many families in research that lost a child and then renamed a later child the same name, I would consider this one possibility. I have not found a will for Alexander H. Willingham. Even his death date is not truly recorded anywhere that I have found so far. For historical purposes only, I list that A. H. Willingham was a slave owner.

Notes for AMY J. WILLINGHAM: In the 1850 Census, Graves Co., Kentucky, Roll M432,, pg 458, image 510, an Amey is listed with parents William Jerome and Mary Willingham, prior to William Jerome's marriage to Elizabeth Campbell. Mary (Murray) Willingham died in 1850, the same year that this Amey was born. Perhaps Mary died from complications in giving birth to Amey. I suggest that this Amey Willingham also died, for according to two other sources, there was another Amy/Amey J. Willingham, about five years younger listed with the 3rd wife of Alexander H. Willingham. I believe that the Amey J. Willingham listed with A. H. Willingham and 3rd wife Elizabeth, and who is age 5 in the 1860 US Census, (Mayfield P.O., Graves Co., Kentucky, M653_369, pg 0) is the Amy that grew to adulthood and married. It was a common practice to use a name again should the first child with the name die young.

On the 1880 Census, Isora is living with her parents, Issaac J. and Lucinda, but with the surname Fields, and marital status is widowed. Perhaps, Isora married twice and was widowed twice. Of course, the Isora who married James Nathaniel Blackman could indeed be a different Isora. It would be necessary to do more proof by finding actual documentation. ...Katrina Piper

iii. JOHN J. WILLINGHAM599, b. Abt. 1858, Kentucky; d. Unknown. 86. JOHN C.6 WILLINGHAM (ISAAC5, GARRETT4, JOHN3, JOHN2, JOHN1)600,601,602 was born Abt. 1825 in Graves Co., Kentucky, and died Unknown. He married ELIZABETH J. SHELTON603,604. She was born Abt. 1824 in Butler Co., Kentucky, and died Unknown. Notes for JOHN C. WILLINGHAM: There were two John C. Willinghams in Kentucky at the same time frame and both had a wife named Elizabeth. I have now received what I feel is proof that the John C. Willingham that was married to Elizabeth J. Brown was not the same John C. Willingham that was married to Elizabeth J. Shelton. Descendant Kenneth D. Willingham found death certificates, birth records, marriage records, etc., documenting his claim that his great-great grandmother was Elizabeth J. Brown as his aunts, uncles and grandparents told him. Besides the Kentucky and Arkansas documents, he also has a tin-type photograph of Elizabeth J. Brown Willingham which lists her birth & death year and stated she was the wife of John C. Willingham. Kenneth also researched Elizabeth J. Shelton and found that she, too, existed, and that she, too, was married to a John C. Willingham. Kenneth learned that the two John C. Willinghams existed in the state of Kentucky at the same time - one in Henderson County and the other in Graves County, Kentucky. His research states that the write-up on the John C. Willingham that married Elizabeth J. Shelton is in the Memorial Record of Western Kentucky, LewisPublishing Company, 1904 pp 726-727, Graves. Kenneth D. Willingham's ancestor, John C. Willingham was the son of Jarrett Willingham and Marion Freels and was from Henderson Co., Kentucky. On the 1850 US Census, District 1, Graves Co., Kentucky, M432_201, pg 458, image 510, dwelling 484; J. C. Willingham, age 35, is living next door to A. H. Willingham, his wife Mary, and children Pulaski, William, James, Burton, Alexander, Mary, Nancy and Amy. With J. C. are his wife Elizabeth, age 36, and two sons - Alexander 3, and Jeremiah 1. A. H. and J. C. Willingham are brothers, sons of Isaac Willingham. The other J. C. Willingham appears on the same census in Henderson Co., Dist 1, family 365: John C. Willingham, age 27, wife Elizabeth, 27, daughter Nancy 7, dau Isabella U. 4, dau Lucy A. 2, and son, William H. 5/12. In the dwelling prior, #364, is Elias Willingham, wife Amelia and their children.

They were the children of a Zachary Willingham and we're not sure where Zachary fits. Lazarus became their guardian in about 1860 according to Henderson co court records. (forwarded by Jan Knox from research by KENNETH D. WILLINGHAM) January County Court 1860 Henderson County, Kentucky On motion L Willingham who took the oath prescribed by law It is ordered that he be appointed guardian for Lavisa Belle Willingham, Euphemia Willingham, William Jasper Willingham, and Mary A Willingham, infant orphans of Zachariah Willingham, dec’ and the said Lavisa Belle Willingham & Euphemia Willingham being over the age of fourteen years appeared in Court & in open Court made choice of the said L Willingham as their guardian, and thereupon the said L Willingham with J R Biggs his surety approved of by the Court gave bond or covenant to the Commonwealth of Kentucky conditioned according to law. Since the 1850 Henderson County, Kentucky Census shows these children living with Lazarus & Mary Willingham, and it indicates that Mary A. Willingham is 2 years old in 1850, Zachariah, having died when Mary was an infant; probably died between 1848 & 1850. **With the above data, there will be a correction to place the children with the proper parents when research has found where to place the father of the children, Zachariah Willingham…..kmp Children of LAZARUS WILLINGHAM and MARY LONG are: 149. i.

Notes for WILLIAM JAMES POE: William Arthur Poe's research habits and findings are thorough and exacting, and for that reason I have left the birthdate for William Jasper Poe as March 31, 1845. This disagrees with his age on the 1860 US Census, Eastern Division, Fayette, Alabama; Roll: M653_9; Page: 430. But then again, that is nothing unusual for ages to be varied by several years on census enumerations. Notes for JANE MORRIS: Died 5 April 1902 in Clay, Columbia, Arkansas. She is my 3rd great-aunt. Thank you for posting her correct surname. Many have her as Parker, but she was Thomas Parker's widow with one child Louvernia Emily Parker--when she married William Poe. Thanks!

105. NANCY ELIZABETH7 COOK (ELIZABETH6 WILLINGHAM, JOHN5, WILLIAM4, ISAAC3, THOMAS2, JOHN1) was born May 16, 1853, and died January 01, 1937 in Anson, Jones Co., Texas. She married WILLIAM THORNTON MYERS. He was born February 15, 1851, and died December 11, 1911. Notes for NANCY ELIZABETH COOK: From Janie Healer Davis... The grave marker is now at Nancy Elizabeth Cook Myers' grave at Rose Hill Cemetery in Merkel, TX. As you can see by the attached photograph, her grave was previously marked with a rock. She is buried beside her husband, William Thornton Myers, who is next to their son, Hosea F. Myers. Just as a refresher, Nancy Elizabeth Cook was a daughter of Daniel & Elizabeth Cook. She married W. T. Myers and had several children (not only Hosea). However, Hosea married Aunt Eva Oliver (Warner Earl Cook's 2nd wife's daughter), but was kicked in the head by a mule and died just a month before their daughter, Lena, was born. Therefore, we like to think us as "double kin" to Aunt Eva Oliver Myers Blackburn. Janie also shared the obituary she received from Joy Doan Moore... Nancy Cook Myers' obituary "Mrs. Nancy Elizabeth Cook Myers died at her home near Anson, January 1, 1937, at 9 p.m. at the age of 83 years, 7 months and 13 days. The body was brought from Anson by the Barrow-Lawrence Undertaking Company, with interment in the Merkel cemetery. Rev. Mr. Vernell of Potosi was in charge of the services. Pallbearers were: Billie Myers; Bryant Myers, Hosea Myers, Anson, Sie Edwards, Haskell, Roy Clark and Earnest Meeks, Merkel. Mrs. Cook was born in Alabama May 16, 1853, and was married to W. T. Myers January 18, 1872. Twelve children were born to this union, four of whom are living: O.L. Myers, D.R. Myers, Mrs. Dovie Burnett, Anson, and S.M. Myers, Calif. Only one sister, Mrs. Susan F. Doan of Merkel, survives. There are 19 grandchildren and 28 great-grandchildren. Mrs. Myers joined the Old School Baptist Church at the age of nineteen and was a faithful member until her death. Her work on earth is finished but throughout all eternity she will enjoy a rich heritage for the faithful and useful life she has lived. ---A Niece, Mrs. Hugh Campbell" ******** According to Nancy Cook Myers' obituary, she and W. T. Myers had 12 children. Only four were surviving at Nancy's death. Her obituary also shows her full birthdate and that she was born in ALABAMA.This would agree with the births of her older siblings even though many times her birthplace has shown to be Arkansas.

Notes for JOHN C. WILLINGHAM: There were two John C. Willinghams in Kentucky at the same time frame and both had a wife named Elizabeth. I have now received what I feel is proof that the John C. Willingham that was married to Elizabeth J. Brown was not the same John C. Willingham that was married to Elizabeth J. Shelton. Descendant Kenneth D. Willingham found death certificates, birth records, marriage records, etc., documenting his claim that his great-great grandmother was Elizabeth J. Brown as his aunts, uncles and grandparents told him. Besides the Kentucky and Arkansas documents, he also has a tin-type photograph of Elizabeth J. Brown Willingham which lists her birth & death year and stated she was the wife of John C. Willingham. Kenneth also researched Elizabeth J. Shelton and found that she, too, existed, and that she, too, was married to a John C. Willingham. Kenneth learned that the two John C. Willinghams existed in the state of Kentucky at the same time - one in Henderson County and the other in Graves County, Kentucky. His research states that the write-up on the John C. Willingham that married Elizabeth J. Shelton is in the Memorial Record of Western Kentucky, LewisPublishing Company, 1904 pp 726-727, Graves. Kenneth D. Willingham's ancestor, John C. Willingham was the son of Jarrett Willingham and Marion Freels and was from Henderson Co., Kentucky. from Kenneth - http://genforum.genealogy.com/willingham/messages/1453.html "The John C. Willingham married to Elizabeth J. Shelton is the son of Isaac Willingham and Mary Collins as stated in the memorial record. My Great-Great Grandfather John C. Willingham is the son of Jarrett Willingham and Marion Freels. The two John C. Willinghams are first cousins, once removed. Now, I have something for you to try and research with your contacts. I have proof that this John C. Willingham of Graves County, Kentucky left Elizabeth J. Shelton a widow and that she remarried a Robbins. I am trying to see where this relationship led. Let me know if you find anything out." On the 1850 US Census, District 1, Graves Co., Kentucky, M432_201, pg 458, image 510, dwelling 484; Willingham, J.

home near Spring Hill. In their family were the following children, James, Joel, John, Sallie and Betsey, all of whom are now deceased. Thomas T. Willingham was reared in Carlisle county, and wedded Miss Sallie Reese, whose birth was in Hickman County. They lived near Spring Hill for thirty years, and then came to Carlisle county, settling in its western district near Arlington. There they spent their remaining days. The father was a farmer by occupation, following that pursuit throughout his entire life in order to provide for his family, and in his undertakings he prospered because he was energetic and industrious and because of his keen foresight in business matters. He served his locality as magistrate for several years, and gave an unfaltering support to the democracy. Bothe he and his wife were advocates of Christian living, and were loyal members of the Missionary Baptist Church. He died when seventy three years of age, and his wife passed away at the age of seventy-two yrs. Their children were as follows: Margaret, who is the widow of Thomas Sullenger and resides in California; Alpha, who is the widow of Thomas Ellis and is living in Carlisle, Kentucky; Maria, the deceased wife of Marion Patterson; Mary, the wife of Brit Glenn, of Carlisle county; Jay; Richard, a miller of Carlisle; Robert, a machinist of Bardwell; and William, who was the third of the family and died while serving in the confederate army during Civil war. Jay, was reared upon his father's farm, and in his youth attended the country schools. He began the battle of life for himself when almost nineteen yrs of age as a farmer, and for twenty yrs. carried on agricultural pursuits in Carlisle. He then engaged in the stave business, which he followed for a year and on the expiration of that period resumed farming, which continued to claim his time and energies until he was called to public service. He became deputy sheriff in 1898 and served in that capacity until 1900, when he was appointed to fill out the unexpired term caused by the resignation of F.P. Fisher as sheriff. At the regular election Mr. Willingham was then elected to the office, and is the present incumbent. He discharged his duties without fear of favor, and is a most loyal custodian of the public peace. Mr. Willingham was united in marriage to Miss Jennie Thompson, a native of Alabama., and they have become the parents of three children, Edward, Inez and Shirley. They were married in 1881, and have since traveled life's journey happily together. They hold membership in the Missionary Baptist church, they enjoy the high regard of all with whom they are associated. Jay is identified with the independent order of Odd Fellows and is true to the beneficent teachings. He deserves much credit for his success in life, and may well be termed a self-made man, for whatever he possesses has been acquired through his own perseverance, discriminating efforts. He started out in life on his own account empty-handed. and steadily has worked his way upward, overcoming all obstacles in his path by determination and resolute purpose.

JOHN R. OWEN, M. D. For more than a quarter of a century Dr. John Reese Owen has engaged in the practice of his profession in Arlington, and his active connection with the calling dates from 1868. He has long occupied a position of prominence in the medical fraternity of western Kentucky, and receives the respect and admiration which arise not only from professional success but also from the possession of sterling traits of character. Honored and esteemed by all, there is no man more worthy of mention in the history of Carlisle county than is Dr. Owen. He was born in what is now Carlisle county, but was then a part of Ballard county, his natal day being September 15, 1839. His paternal grandparents were Rev. John H. and Elizabeth (Humphreys) Owen. The former was a native of Halifax county, Virginia, and from the age of twenty-one years until his death devoted his life to the work of the Christian ministry as a preacher of the Missionary Baptist Church. He became one of the pioneer preachers of the denomination in Kentucky, to which state he removed from the Old Dominion when a young man. Who can say what good has resulted from the seeds of truth which he sowed. His influence was widely felt, and the localities in which he lived owed their early moral development in large measure to his efforts. He also followed agricultural pursuits, rearing his family upon his farm. He possessed sterling qualities of heart and mind, and left a deep impress for good upon his generation. His wife was a native of Caswell county, North Carolina, and to them were born several sons and daughters, who were reared amid the refined influences of a cultured Christian home. Thomas Jefferson Owen, the father of Dr. Owen, was born in Warren county, Kentucky, June 8, 1808, spent his youth under the parental roof and when a young man of twenty-two years removed to Calloway county, Kentucky, settling upon a tract of land which he occupied for about two years. He then sold that property and removed to Ballard county, taking up his abode near the village of Cunningham, but later removed to a farm near Spring Hill, and here he spent many years, devoting his attention to agricultural pursuits with creditable and gratifying success. He married Miss Garthena Willingham, who was usually known by the given name of Gettie. Her father, Jarrett Willingham, was one of the pioneer settlers of Hickman county. Mrs. Owen died in 1844, leaving three children: Margaret Elizabeth, who became the wife of Joel B. Reese and died in 1902; John Reese, whose name introduces this record; and James Thomas, who died in 1851, aged nine years and some months. The father, long surviving his wife, died at the home of the Doctor in Arlington, on the 22d of December, 1888, having passed the eightieth milestone on the journey of life. Both were laid to rest in the family graveyard upon the old home farm near Spring Hill. They were ardent and faithful members of the Missionary Baptist church, and for many years the father was a notable and prominent citizen of this region. He engaged in merchandising for some time, and also served as postmaster at Obion, a postoffice now extinct. In his political views he was a Democrat of the Jeffersonian school. A man of strong convictions, of marked courage and of fearless loyalty to whatever he believed to be right, he was regarded as one of the influential citizens of the county, and largely aided in molding public thought and feeling. Dr. John Reese Owen was reared on the home farm, and began his education in the country schools nearby, while later he attended Milburn Academy. Determining to devote his life to the practice of medicine, he entered upon his preparation in the month of September, 1865, with Dr. George Beeler, for years one of the most eminent physicians of western Kentucky, as his preceptor. After studying for two years under the guidance of Dr. Beeler, Mr. Owen attended a course of medical lectures at the University of Louisville, where he completed the regular course and was graduated on the 1st of March, 1872. Following his graduation he then returned to his country home, and resided and practiced there for five years more. In December, 1876, Dr. Owen located in Arlington, where he has since continued his residence, and throughout the years which have since elapsed his practice has been both extensive and lucrative. He is a member of the Carlisle County Medical Society, of which he has served as president, and he also belongs to the Southwestern Kentucky Medical Society and the International Association of Railway Surgeons. Since 1878 he has been the local surgeon for the Illinois Central Railroad at Arlington. Concentration of purpose and persistently applied energy rarely fail of success in the accomplishment of any task, however great, and in tracing the career of Dr. Owen, it is plainly seen that these elements have been the secret to his rise to a position of prominence. He possesses a genuine love for his work and for scientific investigation and research, and he has kept fully in touch with the advance which is continually being made by the medical fraternity in methods of practice. In his political views the Doctor is a Democrat, and during President Cleveland's second administration he served as postmaster of Arlington. Fraternally he is connected with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and is a Master Mason and has served for several terms as the chief officer of the blue lodge. Dr. Owen also has a creditable military record. When twenty-one years of age he left the farm, and in June, 1861, volunteered for service in the Confederate army, becoming a member of Company A, Second Kentucky Infantry. He was soon promoted from private to

second sergeant, and participated in the battles of Fort Donelson, Hartsville, the sieges of Jackson and Vicksburg, the battle of Chickamauga and many skirmishes. At Hartsville he was wounded in the body, on the 7th of December, 1862, and was disabled for service for three months. At Chickamauga, September 20, 1863, he was wounded in the arm, just above the wrist, but he never faltered in the performance of his soldierly duty, no matter how much hardship it entailed. In March, 1864, he was detailed for service in the quartermaster's department, and continued to act in that capacity until the close of the war. He is now a member of James W. Moss Camp No. 1287, United Confederate Veterans, and is assistant surgeon of that organization for his brigade. On the 7th of January, 1866, Dr. Owen was married to Miss Fannie J. Wray, a daughter of James H. and Celia Horn (Ward) Wray. She was born in Calloway county, Kentucky, October 27, 1844, and died in Arlington, October 4, 1897. By this marriage nine children were born: James T., now living in St. Louis, Missouri; Lenna Buckner, a druggist of Arlington; Ada Fannie, the wife of Tom C. Pettit, of Bardwell, Kentucky; John William, of Morehouse, Missouri; Ernest Holt, also living in Morehouse; Robert Emmett, a physician of St. Louis, Missouri; Elbert Brit, a bookkeeper in St. Louis; Errett Lee and Verna Ann, at home. In addition to his residence in Arlington, Dr. Owen owns the old family homestead, and is engaged in farming and in the culture of bees, having a fine apiary. He gives his personal supervision to these business interests, but his attention is chiefly devoted to his practice, which has steadily increased in volume and importance as the years have gone by. He votes with the Democratic party and is an active member of the Missionary Baptist church, to which he has contributed liberally of his time and means. In manner he is agreeable and courteous, sympathetic and kindly, and in public affairs is generous and progressive.

Notes for WILLIAM JEROME WILLINGHAM: Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, Kniffin 1st ed., 1885 Reprinted 1972 by Kentucky Reprint Co., Murray, KY. Graves Co. WILLIAM JEROME WILLINGHAM was born June 6, 1836, in Graves County, Ky., where he still resides. His father, Alexander H. Willingham, was a native of Henderson County, Ky., born in 1809, and died in Webster County, in 1882, a State senator at the time of his death. He carried the first United States Mail from Wadesboro to Iron Banks (now Columbus), Ky., was sheriff many years, and six times represented Graves County in the legislature. He was the son of Isaac, a Virginian, one of the first settlers in the Purchase. Subject's mother, Mary H. (Murray) Willingham, of Henderson County, died in 1850, at the age of thirty-nine years. Alexander H. was thrice married, and his child by his first wife is Pulaski M. By his second marriage: subject, James M., Benton P., Mary E. (Hardwick), Robert and Nancy E. Willingham. By this third wife: Amey J. (Walker and Couch), Kittie A. (Hall), Campbell H., Lucy A. and Susan A. (Eades). In youth subject was favored with a good education and is an extensive reader.

William caught Roy stealing chickens, so he shot him with squirrel shot and put out one of his eyes. William Jerome hid a lot of his belongings at Cull's (brother of Roy) house so that his 3rd wife who was much younger then him would not get it. She wanted to have his pension from the civil war.

Willingham volunteered his services to his country; but as Kentucky. had not then gone into the fray, he joined the 12th Tennessee. as a member of Co. E, and fought with them twelve months in the rear guard; he was then transferred to the 3rd Kentucky., for the rest of the war, and was paroled on Jun 22, 1865. The above text on the story of Cull Willingham and on William Jerome's Confederacy service was shared with me from the hard work of Nancy Leeg Jankowski and of RB Willingham. Nancy has researched the Willingham lineage and found copies of wills, etc. RB provided me a copy of the death certificate and has assisted Nancy in this line.

In the household are: Bessie, dau age 21 Oscar T. son age 18 Daisy, dau, age 17 Cleveland, son age 15 Rosy (?), dau, age 12 Elliak (which I think is Aleck for Alexander), son age 12 Edwin, son (later identified in 1910 census as grandson), age 5 months. Perhaps Edwin was the son of Bessie or Daisy? There is an Edwin Willingham born 21 Sept 1899 (the 1900 census states Sept 1899) who is listed on the Social Security Death Index. This Edwin Willingham died Dec 1976, and the last residence listed was North Little Rock, Pulaski Co., Arkansas. I do know that some of the family lived in Arkansas at times, including William Jerome. A family letter written to Sarah Ann Willingham by her sister Ellen Willingham in 1865 talked about wanting to come see them before they left and asked that they write when they got to Ark. On the 1910 US Census, Floyd Co., KY, dist 1, T624_475, pg 223A, dwelling 197, we find William J. Willingham, widowed, age 73, head of house, b. Kentucky, engaged in general farming. In the household are: Bessie Willingham, 31, single, dau, b. Kentucky, not employed outside the home; Alex Willingham, 21, single, son, b. Kentucky, in school; Edwin Willingham, 10, single, grandson, b. Kentucky, labor in home and on farm. This makes me wonder whether the employment data between Alex and Edwin might not have been confused. It would seem more realistic to have the 10-year-old in school and the 21-year-old as the laborer. **************** A tribute by Mozella, third wife of W. Jerome Willingham. Lieut. Willingham was married to Miss Sarah Willingham (A cousin) just before the close of the great struggle, and afterwards settled down on a farm close to his childhood home. A few years later, his wife having died, leaving two children, he moved to Water Valley, Kentucky., in the same county, and went to merchandising, in which he continued for many years, during which he married Miss Maggie Roach, and to them were given seven children. This wife died some thirty years ago. Eight of his children survive him. He loved to recount his thrilling experiences in the sixties and had been an enthusiastic reader of the Veteran since the first; he seldom missed a reunion of his comrades. At the age of fifty-five he professed faith in Jesus Christ and tenaciously clung to the old John Wesley pats until death. In sadness is this humble tribute paid to his memory, trusting all is well with his soul. (One who loved him---M.H.W.)

Willingham were children of a POLK WILLINGHAM. John M. Willingham had a brother named James Knox Polk Willingham. The article stated that these two particular children, James and Foster were brothers and that their father was Polk Willingham..."who had been dead a number of years." It is unknown from the printed story as to the "why," but the facts presented were that James shot Foster, afterwards went to a neighbor John Dobson's house to telephone another brother to say he had shot Foster.

Notes for JAMES KNOX POLK WILLINGHAM: It is by speculation that the two sons James, b. abt 1873 and Foster, b. abt 1888, have been placed with this family. The story listed on the page for Foster Willingham, tells of his being shot by his brother James. The printed story from The Daily Messenger of Mayfield, KY, states that the father of the men was Polk Willingham, "who had been dead a number of years." James Knox Polk Willingham was brother to John M. Willingham, with whom the two men had previously been listed as children.

Notes for FOSTER WILLINGHAM: Mayfield, Kentucky., Tuesday afternoon, Aug. 18 1908-The daily Messinger newspaper. TRUE FACTS ARE HARD TO SECURE: Coroner Jury fails to discover anything except that James Willingham fired fatal shot. Foster Willingham, who was slain by brother buried Tuesday. Salyer left and has not been heard from, Missing rope ;suggests probable suicide. Coroner's verdict. "We the jury after hearing the evidence, find that Foster Willingham came to his death on the morning of the 17th day of Aug. 1908 at the home of his brother, James Willingham near Cuba Graves county, Kentucky., by a shot fired from a gun in the hands of James Willingham. signed by the juries Oscar Alexander, W. A, Davidson, J. A. Williams, G. W. Webb, O.W. Walston". Coroner D. A. Saffold returned Monday evening from the home of James Willingham, two miles west of Cuba, where he conducted an inquest over the body of Foster who was shot and killed by his brother Jim Willingham. The verdict of the coroner is found above. Mr. Saffold found it a difficult matter to arrive at the true facts leading to the tragedy. It was found, however, that Foster was shot while in his own bed, which is in the same room of that occupied by Jim and wife as their sleeping quarters. Mrs. Willingham and the mother of the Willingham boys refuse to make any statement regarding the affair. The body of Foster when the Coroner arrived was in the bed where he had usually slept. He was lying on his back with his eyes closed as if he had been asleep. pistol of .32 caliber Smith & Wesson was lying in the bed near his right hand. The shot that caused the death of the young man entered under the right nipple and went through the lungs ranging upward toward the left shoulder, but did not penetrate the entire body. Showing that the fun was fired at close range, the shirt on Foster and the quilt covering his body caught fire. The weapon used was a single barrel, 12 gauge breech loading shotgun. None of the shot scattered and all centered the body in a bunch. After the shooting James reloaded the gun and placed it back on a rack in the kitchen where it had always been kept. He went to the home of John Dobson, half a mile away, where another brother was notified by telephone. He told Mr. Dobson to tell his brother that he had killed Foster and that he had to do it. He then left Mr. Dobson's house and went towards the woods. Mr. Dobson later missed a rope from his house and a short while afterwards he heard a shot down in the woods and some people have advanced the theory that Willingham may have committed suicide. James had gotten out of his bed and gone to the kitchen to make a fire in the stove. The rumor that Foster had left his bed to go to the bed of James could not be verified, as those acquainted with the facts refused to reveal anything. One of the children of James said that about three weeks ago her father and Foster had a quarrel and did not speak for a week, but that they had not been quarrelling for several days. Others corroborated the child by saying that the trouble had been "patched" up. The man who did the killing is about 35 years old, while the dead brother is about 20. The latter was boarding with his brother and working on a neighbor's farm. Up to a few months ago he had been down in Mississippi making his home. On Saturday previous to the killing he and some other young men had been arranged before the magistrate charged with killing a dog. The father of the men was Polk Willingham, who has been dead a number of years. The burial took place at Little Bethel, near Wingo Tuesday.

William Jerome Willingham shot Roy Willingham (son of John Willingham & Sarah Strak- Grandson of Lafayette Francis/Louiza Bennett) . William caught Roy stealing chickens, so he shot him with squirrel shot and put out one of his eyes. William Jerome hid a lot of his belongings at Cull's (brother of Roy) house so that his 3rd wife who was much younger then him would not get it. She wanted to have his pension from the civil war. This information was found: # 2110: "Kentucky. A history of the State", Battle, Perrin, Kniffin 1st ed., 1885reprinted 1972 by Kentucky., Reprint Co., Murray, Kentucky. Graves Co. "WILLIAM JEROME WILLINGHAM was born June 6, 1836, in Graves Co., Kentucky., where he still resides." CONFEDERATE VETERAN Lt. W. J. Willingham, a member of Jim Pirtle Camp, U.C.V., of Fulton, Kentucky., the last of four brothers who served the confederacy in the sixties, fell on sleep the night of July 31, 1921, after a few days illness. He had reached the age of eighty-six years: was born and lived nearly all of his time in Graves Co., Kentucky., with the exception of the last seventeen months. When war was declared in 1861, Comrade Willingham volunteered his services to his country; but as Kentucky. had not then gone into the fray, he joined the 12th Tennessee. as a member of Co. E, and fought with them twelve months in the rear guard; he was then transferred to the 3rd Kentucky., for the rest of the war, and was paroled on Jun 22, 1865. The above text on the story of Cull Willingham and on William Jerome's Confederacy service was shared with me from the hard work of Nancy Leeg Jankowski and of RB Willingham. Nancy has researched the Willingham lineage and found copies of wills, etc. RB provided me a copy of the death certificate and has assisted Nancy in this line.

Bessie Willingham, 31, single, dau, b. Kentucky, not employed outside the home; Alex Willingham, 21, single, son, b. Kentucky, in school; Edwin Willingham, 10, single, grandson, b. Kentucky, labor in home and on farm. This makes me wonder whether the employment data between Alex and Edwin might not have been confused. It would seem more realistic to have the 10-year-old in school and the 21-year-old as the laborer. **************** A tribute by Mozella, third wife of W. Jerome Willingham. Lieut. Willingham was married to Miss Sarah Willingham (A cousin) just before the close of the great struggle, and afterwards settled down on a farm close to his childhood home. A few years later, his wife having died, leaving two children, he moved to Water Valley, Kentucky., in the same county, and went to merchandising, in which he continued for many years, during which he married Miss Maggie Roach, and to them were given seven children. This wife died some thirty years ago. Eight of his children survive him. He loved to recount his thrilling experiences in the sixties and had been an enthusiastic reader of the Veteran since the first; he seldom missed a reunion of his comrades. At the age of fifty-five he professed faith in Jesus Christ and tenaciously clung to the old John Wesley pats until death. In sadness is this humble tribute paid to his memory, trusting all is well with his soul. (One who loved him---M.H.W.) The above tribute is said to be written by Mozella, who was the 3rd wife of William Jerome Willingham. Although the tribute is signed "One who loved him," family members have a different story. In the end, who knows the truth of it....Katrina M. Piper A copy of a handwritten note by Elizabeth Lucille Willingham DeSanto referred to a third marriage of her grandfather W. Jerome Willingham when he was "an old man." This note claimed that the younger woman managed to get control of all his money, put him on a train & send him to his son, My Uncle Wil, after which he died in Fulton, KY. The note accompanied a newspaper clipping "Two Suits are Filed for Divorce." One was... "Another suit for divorce was that filed by Mrs. M. H. Willingham against W. Jerome Willingham She also sues for $5000 and attachment on his real and personal property and money alleged to be in the Bank of Wingo, Bank of Water Valley, and in possession of "Cul" Willingham. The couple live near Patmore and were married July 14, 1914, and lived together until February 28, 1919. W. S. Foy is attorney for the plaintiff."

Notes for JEREMIAH THEODORE WILLINGHAM: Memorial Record of Western Kentucky, Lewis Publishing Company, 1904, pp 726-727 [Graves] Jeremiah T. WILLINGHAM, one of the well known men of Graves county, is a native of this county and has lived in the state all his life, so that he is an out and out Kentuckian in all that term implies in the way of business shrewdness, generous hospitableness and ability to enjoy life in all phases and under all conditions. Mr. WILLINGHAM has followed both mercantile and agricultural pursuits, and is denominated as a hustler in whatever he undertakes. He is a thorough business man in demeanor and action, makes his efforts count in every direction, and handles his affairs with an independent energy that brings returns. He has also been a citizen of the highest reliability and public spirit, and he has the honor of being one of the youngest veterans of the Civil war in the state. Mr. WILLINGHAM is of English ancestry, and his parents and grandparents on both sides were of Virginia birth. He was born in Graves county, Kentucky, July 11, 1849, and is a son of John C. and Elizabeth J. (Shelton) WILLINGHAM, the former a son of Isaac WILLINGHAM, and the father of the latter was a Baptist minister. Mr. WILLINGHAM was reared in Graves and Calloway counties, receiving his education in the latter, and as soon as he reached the proper age he engaged in farming on his own account, having been used to that line of work from childhood. On January 2, 1863, when he was not yet fourteen years old, he enlisted in the Union army as a member of Company D, Sixteenth Kentucky Volunteer Cavalry. This company was afterwards consolidated and became Company M, Sixteenth Kentucky Cavalry, and in this Mr. WILLINGHAM served till the close of the war, when he returned home with all the honors and privileges of a veteran, although he was still a boy. Mr. WILLINGHAM after a time gave up farming and embarked in the mercantile business at Jordan Station, Fulton county, Kentucky, where he carried a general line of dry goods, groceries, etc., and conducted a successful tradefor twelve years. In 1892 he located on a farm in Fulton county, and was there until 1899, at which date he returned to his native county of Graves, and has since resided on a beautiful farm of one hundred and sixty acres four and one-half miles from Mayfield. This is a valuable piece of property, and his progressive methods of cultivation it make it profitable and one of the model farms of the vicinity. Mr. WILLINGHAM follows the political trend of the state, and has always voted the Democratic ticket. In 1870 he was united in marriage to Miss Lucy Scearce, who was born in Fulton county, Kentucky. Eight children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. WILLINGHAM, as follows: Margaret E., Ester May, Edward E., Mand, John E., Myrtle, Robert F. and David W. Mr. and Mrs. WILLINGHAM are noted for their generous hospitality among a people who possess this virtue in a marked degree, and they are held in high esteem by all who have the pleasure of their acquaintance.

viii. DAVID W. WILLINGHAM1136, b. December 1887, Kentucky1137; d. Unknown. 149. SARAH JANE7 WILLINGHAM (LAZARUS MARCELLUS6, ELIJAH5, GARRETT4, JOHN3, JOHN2, JOHN1)1138 was born July 22, 1838 in Henderson Co., Kentucky1139, and died August 24, 1878 in Henderson Co., Kentucky1140. She married GEORGE THOMAS KEACH1141,1142 January 23, 1854 in Henderson Co., Kentucky1143, son of OVID KEACH and JUDITH SANDEFUR. He was born August 04, 1834 in Virginia1144, and died October 28, 1916 in Henderson Co., Kentucky1145,1146. More About SARAH JANE WILLINGHAM: Burial: August 1878, Cash Creek Cemetery, Henderson Co., Kentucky Notes for GEORGE THOMAS KEACH: In the "History of Kentucky," Vol 3, pg 267, (authors: William Elsey Connelley and E. M. Coulter, PhD, pug 1922) there is information regarding GEORGE THOMAS KEACH that indicates more research is needed . The text identifies the mother of GEORGE COLEMAN GREEN as MARY E. KEACH, daughter of GEORGE THOMAS KEACH. In disussing the father of George Colemen Green, the text on OLLIE D. GREEN... "...His wife is still living, and is a daughter of GEORGE THOMAS KEACH, who was born in Virginia and came to Henderson County before the Civil War. He followed farming until his death at the age of seventy-four. His wife was SARAH LIGG. GEORGE THOMAS KEACH had eighteen children, thirteen of whom are married and have children..." So with this information, the marriage to Sarah Willingham must not have been the only marriage. There are nine known children to the marriage of George Thomas Keach and Sarah Willingham. Another possibility...Sarah Willingham was married briefly to a LIGG prior to KEACH. There is a period of time between the birth of George Thomas in 1856 and the birth of Mahalia in 1864 that more children could have been born. Since Sarah Willingham Keach died in 1878, did George Thomas Keach remarry and have more children? Still that would not account for the name of SARAH LIGG being listed as grandmother to GEORGE COLEMAN GREEN, son of MARY ELLEN KEACH and OLLIE D. GREEN. At least not in relation to George Thomas Keach. On the 1860 US Census, Division 2, Henderson, Kentucky; Roll: M653_373; Page: 0. (Hebbardsville Post Ofc) We find G.T. Keach, 25, Sarah J. Keach 21, G.T. Keach 3, and Margret Keach 1.

Keach as a child of George Thomas Keach through the research of others, but with no documentation. The 1860 and the 1870 US Census images that show George Thomas Keach and wife Sarah do not list a child by the name of Ovid. I do not know now where to place this information and yet do not wish to simply delete the individual. Perhaps another research will yet find where to place Ovid L. Keach....Katrina M. Piper Aug 2006. There are two marriage records on the Kentucky Marriages (1851-1900) for the name Ovid Keach. One record is for a marriage to HARRIETT A. JOHNSTON on 20 Dec 1876 in Henderson County. The other record is for a marriage to HATIETT A. CHAPMAN on 17 Oct 1899 in Christian County.

Funeral rites for Mrs. Amanda Frances Griffin, 92, were held at the local First Baptist Church at 2:30 p.m. Thursday, August 6, with the Rev. M.K. Capehart, pastor of the Assembly of God, officiating. Burial was in Bethel Cemetery south of Frankston. Mrs. Griffin died at 11:45 a.m. Wednesday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Mat Cooper on North Reagan Street. She had been in failing health for the past few years, but death came unexpectedly from a heart attack. One of Frankston's oldest residents, Mrs. Griffin was born February 16, 1867, in the Sand Flat Community south of present day Frankston. Her parents were the late Mr. and Mrs. Jim Cook, pioneer couple of this vicinity. August 26, 1883, she was married to M.S. Griffin, also of the Sand Flat Community. They reared their family of four sons and one daughter in this immediate vicinity. Mr. Griffin died in August, 1928. Two sons, Marion Griffin and Troy Griffin, also preceded her in death. Mrs. Griffin often recalled recollections of reconstruction days in the South, and she was a grown woman when Grover Cleveland was President of the United States.

You may not know that Telemicus L Beard, but he was illegitimate child. No one in the family that is still living, know who his parents were. On the census that I have found, he is living with John Beard, and I do know that he was raised as a brother to my grandfather, Joseph Andrew Beard. On one of the census, he is listed as a nephew and on another as a grandson. After that I have not found him listed with anyone until he married Bethenia Cook. So, if he was a grandson, he had to belong to one of John Beards' daughters. Naomi, being the only one he had at T L 's birth, would have only been 10 years old. So, don't think it could be her. I do not have them in my Beard file, only in the Cook file. Because I do not know how to relate him to the Beard's. I have spent many hours looking for a clue, but never found one. ********

Notes for JARRETT O. WILLINGHAM: Kentucky. birth records state that John C. and Elizabeth had a Daughter named Jarella born Nov 30 1857, but census records state that they had a son named Jarrett O. and later a marriage record for him. I believe the birth record was a mistake, unless Jarella was born in 1857 and Jarrett O. a year later. I found no other record on a Jarella. -Nancy Leeg Jankowski Same conclusion reached by Kenneth D. Willingham... He cites: Henderson County, Kentucky Early Births 1852-1859 compiled and published by Linda Hicks Hallmark and Lisa Hallmark Pounders.

Page 122: Descendants of John WillinghamWe thank William Poe for posting this information on his excellent Poe research site.….Katrina M. Piper JohnWillinghamBible. pdf Generation No. 1 1.

Listed on page 63 is the birth of Jarella Willingham, date of birth November 30, 1857. Her father is listed as John C. Willingham and her mother is listed as Eliza Brown. (Now this in itself is very interesting. According to Jarrett O. Willingham's death certificate he was born March 1859. This information was provided by the informant J. C. Crawley, CHC, Kentucky. Mr. Crawley also stated the cause of death to be "Hart trouble". The 1860 Henderson County, Kentucky census states that Jarrett O. Willingham is two years old. This would indicate that he was born about 1858. Being born on November 30, 1857 would make him two years when the census was taken in 1860. Since there has never been a mention of a Jarella Willingham, and she never showed up on any census, I decided to view the original documents that Mrs. Pounders and Mrs. Hallmark used to ascertain their facts. Upon viewing the handwritten entry on a microfiche at the Henderson County Library, I came to a different conclusion. The entry is (Nov " " Jarrett "). The first entry ( Nov ) equals November. The second entry in line is ( " ) which fall under 30 which equals the 30th day. The third entry is ( " ) which falls under the year 1857. The fourth entry is definitely ( Jarrett ). I can see how someone in a hurry or tired, not knowing anything about this entry, may have thought it said Jarrell. But the fifth entry is a very obvious error. The ( " ) fall under male. Therefore Mrs. Pounders and Mrs. Hallmark along with J. C. Crawley have made little errors that caused confusion, until researched again. But I do commend them for their work as it has made my search somewhat easier.) Notes for MAGGIE J. MAYS: The supporting documents cited as sources for Maggie's vital statistics are the ones I have used. They differ from the online cemetery transcription for the Cash Creek cemetery, Henderson Co., Kentucky. The cemetery transcriptions states Maggie J. Willingham's birth was Apr 15 1849 and her date of death Jan 5, 1913. The certificate of death found by Kenneth Willingham shows the date of death to be Aug 18, 1932. This is the same date from the Kentucky Death Records online through Ancestry's database from Kentucky resources. vol. 038, File # 18967 More About MAGGIE J.

Notes for ROBERT OSCAR WILLINGHAM, JR.: Memorial Record of Western Kentucky, Volume I and Volume II, Lewis Publishing Company, 1904, pp. 93-94. Carlisle Co. ROBERT O. WILLINGHAM, JR. Robert O. WILLINGHAM, Jr., the popular deputy clerk of Carlisle county, where for six years he has filled the position, was born upon a farm in this county, March 17, 1879. His parents were Robert O. and Fronia (Sanford) WILLINGHAM. The former is a native of Carlisle county and is a son of Thomas T. and Sallie (Reese) WILLINGHAM, one of the pioneer settlers of what is now Carlisle county. From that time to the present representatives of the name have been prominent and active in advancing measures and movements for the general good, and the WILLINGHAM family has ever been an honored one here. The father of our subject still resides in Bardwell, and is one of the leading and influential citizens of the town and county. Robert O. WILLINGHAM, Jr., obtained a fair common school education and then turned his attention to the mastery of a commercial course. He had the misfortune to lose his right hand, and in order to fit himself for a position in the business world he entered the Falls Business College of Nashville, Tennessee, where he pursued a course in stenography and type-writing, becoming very proficient therein, so much so that since that time he has engaged in teaching those branches to a greater or less extent in Bardwell. When only eighteen years of age he was appointed deputy county clerk, and has since acted in that capacity, displaying unusual fitness for the position. After studying law in the office of W.J. White, of Bardwell, until qualified for practice, he successfully passed an examination whereby he was admitted to the bar in 1901. Realizing the difficulty confronting a young man in the building up of a law practice among old and prominent lawyers, and being under necessity of applying his efforts in lines which would give him quicker returns of revenue than would the practice of law, he accordingly turned his attention in other directions. For one year Mr. WILLINGHAM served as a stenographer in the law office of the Hon. R.J. Bugg, of Bardwell, but since then he has devoted all of his time and attention to his duties as deputy county clerk, much of the work in the office devolving upon him, because Mr. Young, who is his superior in office, is largely engaged with his duties as cashier of the People's Bank of Bardwell. Mr. WILLINGHAM is a member of the Baptist church, and belongs to the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. He is a popular young man, energetic, enterprising, genial and affable, and he has many friends in his native county.

M. and S. D. (Milner) WILLINGHAM, and is of Irish-English lineage. The paternal grandfather of Mr. WILLINGHAM was the Hon. A. H. WILLINGHAM, who was many times elected to the Kentucky senate; died July 28, 1882. The parents of our subject are natives of southern Kentucky. J. A. was educated in the Louisville schools and in 1875 began the general merchandise business at Curdsville, Ky., where he remained only a short time.

Rodman B. Willingham 8 Error in Obituary.... In the following obituary, I have left the text as printed for historical purposes, but have learned from the surviving Great-grandson named Bill in the obit is actually Robert D. "Bobby" Williams. Obituary reads:(Paper not identified on copy of article) WILLINGHAM RITES FRIDAY Retired Merchant Died At His Home Yesterday; Services at Hornbeak's "William Murray Willingham, retired merchant, died at his home yesterday after a long illness. The body will lie in state in the chapel of the Hornbeak Funeral Home until 10 o'clock tomorrow, April 11, when services will be conducted there by the Rev. Sam Ed Bradley, pastor of the First Baptist Church. Burial will be in Fairview cemetery, with Hornbeak in charge. Mr. Willingham was born in Arkansas on March 25, 1868 and moved to Kentucky in infancy. He was the son of Jerome and Sarah Willingham. He was married to Miss Maude Rodman on March 25, 1891, and to this union five children were born, three of who preceded him in death. He leaves his widow, two daughters, Mrs. Bob Johnson of Fulton, and Mrs. Floyd Wallace of Evansville, Indiana., two grandsons, Billy Williams, and R. B. Willingham, and a great-grandson, Bill Williams, all of Evansville; a sister, Mrs. Daisy Albritton of Lakeland, Fla., a niece, Mrs. Elizabeth DeSanto, of Louisville; three nephews, L. R. Willingham of Fulton, Herman Willingham of Paducah, and James Albritton of Lakeland, Fla. Mr. Willingham was a merchant in Fulton for many years. He retired from active business several years ago." A second article authored by Mary E. Parham: Mr. Will, Beloved of Students, Is Gone But Not Forgotten by Mary E. Parham "Mr. Will Willingham, who is an outstanding person in Fulton's memory, is gone but not forgotten by many people, both young and old. Mr. Will will be remembered by the school students of Carr Institute and Fulton High School as the cheery old man who lived across the street from the schools. I know I will always remember my first day as a green little first grader, associated with Mr. Will's grocery store. There along with many others I ate myself into misery and chewed my first piece of double bubble. Then as times passed, seasons changed, and we all grew older, I can remember him whistling that same tune over and over each day as he worked in the yard and I sat in Mrs. Trevor Whayne's algebra class, my freshman year, until I reached Mrs. Whayne's chemistry class my senior year. Mr. Will was just a part of each school kid's growing up. He fitted in every school day's affair. You can recall the man; Friday nights he took up tickets at the basketball games. It just won't seem right next year not to see him standing there. The school students in the classes of 1948 will miss him and so will we." Mary E. Parham was the former Mary E. Blackstone and a classmate of William Murray Willingham's grandson, R. B.

Since his brother Oscar also registered for the draft in Sheffield, Colbert Co., and listed his employment as self-employed photographer, it was likely he for whom James worked.

Notes for HERMAN WILLINGHAM: By the 1930 Census, Herman is not listed with his parents. There is a possibility that Herman died in Florida as did his brother Oscar. On the Florida death index is a listing for: Herman P. Willingham death date 15 Dec 1976 Lee County age 67 Race; white Birth date: 07-25-1909 There is a record of a marriage of a Herman P. Willingham to Velda M. Adcock in Crittenden County, Arkansas, on 29 Dept 1934. Knowing that Herman and his family were in Arkansa on the 1930 census, this is a good candidate for Herman's marriage and a place to send for a marriage record to pursue this line.

He was born February 14, 1887 in Mayfield, Graves Co., Kentucky1406, and died Aft. 1930. Notes for RAYE WAYNE WILLINGHAM: Unclear on the 1900 census, her name proved to be Raye Wayne Willingham, female born in 1887, daughter to William Jerome Willingham and Margaret Elizabeth Roach. She would have been less than two years old when her mother died. This find explained why Raye's brother Alexander (Alex) and his wife Katie gave the middle name to their second daughter Katrina Raye Willingham.

Two sources show Alex's year of birth as 1889...the Form SS5, and the World War I Draft Registration. However, his "special birth certificate," or as some states call it, a "delayed birth certificate," the year is listed as 1888, with three affidavits on this application for birth certificate. The Social Security Death Index shows the date Alexander filed on his application. The SS# was issued in Tennessee. Description: Form SS5 (Application for Social Security Account Number) shows SS# issued 5-27-1937 to Alexander Hamilton Willingham. Parents listed as William Jerome Willingham and Maggie Roach. Birth place listed as Water Valley, Kentucky. Residence at time of application listed as 819 Jefferson, Memphis, Tennessee. Listed as unemployed. Date of birth showed hand correction from 1888 to 1889. Description: Birth Certificate No. 208891 is "Special Certificate of Birth and Affidavits" from Commonwealth of Kentucky. In other states, these are often called "delayed birth certificates." When social security was introduced to the country, those who had not been issued a birth certificate had to apply for one in order to obtain their social security account number. These applications had to be accompanied by affidavits by other individuals who could attest to the fact the applicant was a given individual. When I received the one for Alexander Hamilton Willingham, it held my first clue that his father had been married more than once. One of the affiants was listed as half-brother - Will M. Willingham, age 77. The birth certificate shows date of birth 08-18-1988. Affiants as to facts listed: WILL M WILLINGHAM, 1/2 brother , age 77, signed 3-03-1943 BEN P. BENNETT, non-relative, age 81, signed 03-20-1943 CERTIFICATION OF LIFE AND CASUALTY INS. CO. OF NASHVILLE Tenn. policy #8817377, 06-01-1931 Parents shown as: Father: William Jerome Willingham, age 52, born in Graves Co., KY. . Mother: Maggie Elizabeth Roach, age 37, born in Franklin, Co, MO. Alexander, our subject, signed this application for Special Certificate of Birth with the supporting signatures of the Affiants. He listed his residence at the time of application as Hulbert, Arkansas. (Crittenden Co.) Description: Then, on the World War I Draft Registration card, Alex lists his year of birth as 1889....this form being done prior to the "special birth certificate accomplished in 1931. In 1918, at the time of the country-wide registration for draft, Alex was living in Nashville, Tenn, and employed as a "moulder." By Jan 1919, the family was back in Kentucky where Alex, Jr., was born. so, perhaps shortly after the registration in Sept 1918, the move was made, for Katie would already have been with child about 5 months. Interesting tidbit. Both Alex and Katie were the 'babies' in their respective families, born late in their parents' lives. on the 1910 US Census, Floyd Co., KY, dist 1, T624_475, pg 223A, dwelling 197, Alex is 21, single, and living as son to head of house, William J. Willingham, 73, widowed. More About ALEXANDER HAMILTON WILLINGHAM: Occupation: November 1921, Laborer1425 Notes for KATIE LOU JACKSON: Katie Lou Jackson, daughter of Samuel T. Jackson and Isophene (Phenie) Whobrey, was 16 when she met Alexander Hamilton Willingham. Alex was preaching at a "tent meeting." Katie donned her Sunday best

bonnet, and when she arrived for services, she sat on the front row. Her five foot, petite figure and pretty face apparently caught the eye of the preacher, and the courting began. After marriage, the couple relocated numerous times. Their first child, Thelma, was believed to have been born in Tennessee. Birthplace for Katrina was Nashville, Davidson Co., Tennessee. Leona was born in Detroit, Wayne Co., Michigan. Phillip was born in Louisville, Jefferson Co., Kentucky. Alex Jr's birthplace is stated as Kentucky on his death certificate. Alex was not like the other upstanding citizens in the Willingham family, and Katie and their five children eventually had to leave for their safety. Neither Alex nor Katie believed in divorce, but Katie followed through with what she had to do. It took a great deal of courage for a woman to do so in that era, especially for one that had never worked outside the home or farm. Katie's very first job was at the court house in Memphis. She then opted to "work for the government." At the age of 44, Katie trained at the Veteran's Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, where she worked beyond the normal age of retirement to age 70. She had to ride the city buses to work which entailed several transfers and a ride of over an hour to get there. She never missed a day of work. In the last year or so of being in the work force, Katie purchased an automobile. She took driving lessons and was proud to have her own transportation. The family laughed for Katie rode the clutch so much that she wore out several clutches on that car in one year! I distinctly remember being amazed that my Granny Kate was 69 when she learned to drive. After her divorce, and beginning on her own in a poor section of Memphis, Katie rented a two bedroom duplex. There Katie often had one or more of her grown children return to live with her. This was especially true during WWII. It was at this house, 519 Mosby St., that I have my earliest memories. We were poor, but oh how those women cleaned things! We did not have a "poor" mentality, other than frugal ways and making do with what one had. By 1952, Katie purchased a modest, new home of her own where she lived until her death in 1980. She was proud of her little house and continued to provide a place of refuge for her children when things were rough. On a table in front of her living room window, at both houses, was a small lamp. From the time I can remember, Granny Kate always lit that lamp at night "in case someone needed to come home." The only time Granny Kate mentioned Grandpa Alex was to say he was a man of God. I never heard Granny speak ill of anyone. Information on form SS5 for SS# dated 04-26-1938 - Name, Katie Lou Jackson Willingham, address 317 Winchester, Memphis, Tennessee. Employment as W.P.A., age 44, date of birth as 03-14-1894, birthplace as Springfield, Tennessee. Although this form and Katie's death certificate indicate Springfield, Tennessee as her place of birth, requests for birth documents have produced results of "no record." kmp and of course, this song was sung in Katie's house more than once! K-K-K-Katy Words and Music: Geoffrey O'Hara Jimmy was a soldier brave and bold, Katy was a maid with hair of gold, Like an act of fate, Kate was standing at the gate, Watching all the boys on dress parade, Jimmy with the girls was just a gawk, Stuttered ev'ry time he tried to talk, Still that night at eight, He was there at Katy's gate, Stuttering to her this love sick cry. No one ever looked so nice and neat,

No one could be just as cute and sweet, That's what Jimmy thought, When the wedding ring he bought, Now he's off to France the foe to meet. Jimmy thought he'd like to take a chance, See if he could make the Kaiser dance, Stepping to a tune, All about the silv'ry moon, This is what they hear in far off France. Refrain: "K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy, You're the only g-g-g-girl that I adore; When the m-m-m-moon shines, Over the cow shed, I'll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door."

Jordan, M.D. 176 S. Bellevue, Memphis, Tennessee 38104. Marriage Notes for ALEXANDER WILLINGHAM and KATIE JACKSON: Granny Kate always told us she married at 16. On the 1910 US Census Nashville, Davidson Co., Tennessee, T624, Roll 1495, Bk 3, pg 38A, dwelling 64, Katie is with her parents and 16. The census was taken 30 April 1910, and Katie's 17th birthday would be the following March of 1911. So, her marriage would have been after 30 April 1910 but before 14 March 1911. We believe the marriage took place in Robertson Co., Tennessee, but could have been across the border in Kentucky. Children of ALEXANDER WILLINGHAM and KATIE JACKSON are: 250. i.

Notes for ALEXANDER HAMILTON WILLINGHAM, JR.: Details are unknown concerning Alexander Hamilton Willingham, Jr., From family stories passed from his siblings to their children, Alex Jr. died from a lung ailment. His death certificate states cause of death as tuberculosis meningitis. He was seven years old. Most sources have Alex as the spelling for the nickname for Alexander. Two family members, Phillip Willingham and Loretta Mitchell thought the spelling was Alec. This is why I thought the finding below is probably the subject. The family lived in Kentucky on several occasions. Found this entry in the Kentucky Death Record: ALECK WILLINGHAM JR. died 10-08-1926 at 7 years of age in Graves Co., Kentucky. State vol. 62, office volume 26, cert #30781. Received copy of above death cert. It does state parents as Alec Willingham and Katie Jackson. Filed 12-28-1926, Registrar W. B. Adams.

Notes for CHRISTIAN LINDSEY RESIN EGNER: Form SS5 application for SS# shows name as Lindsey Resin Egner and place of residence as 203 Pulaski, Little Rock, Arkansas. He was stated as being unemployed. Date of birth shown as 09-15-1909 in Little Rock, Arkansas. Parents listed as Chris Egner and Anne (unknown last name). 431-14-0851 Over the years, as I grew up and was in Memphis, Tennessee, our family gatherings would include Aunt Thelma and Uncle Lindsey. Despite the mental illness on Thelma's part, she was able to live a "normal" life in that she held a job several times, cooked, shopped, and cleaned her house. Lindsey was a simple man, and he and Thelma seemed to love each other in their own ways. The family knew that Lindsey was not in the genius category, but he was an honest man who earned an honest living. He worked for Delta Airlines from the time I knew anything. He retired from Delta and was proud to have earned the recognition. On my one and only visit to their home in Dallas, TX, I found a home that was modest but clean. I am not certain where, but he was away part of my visit. I can only say that he and Thelma were loyal to each other and took care of each other in the ways they knew how. Thinking back on this, it is rather a tender thing. During the years I lived with Mother in Little Rock, Arkansas., we would have mother's extended family join us for Thanksgiving. My stepfather, Bill, was a great cook. He prepared the sumptuous feast single handedly. Lindsey would join Bill in the kitchen perched on the kitchen stool. His comment was always the same, "Sure smells good, Bill." I think Lindsey was intimidated by all the strong female personalities in the family. Frankly, so was I! It was always a verbal hullabaloo when Thelma, Leona, Katrina, and their mother Granny Kate got together. Egner Posted by: Heather Message: Katrina, What a surprise for me!! I was not only surprised to hear from someone, but also to find out that Lindsey was married. I have put together a family history album of Chris, Anna, and their children. My grandmother, the wife of one of Lindsey's sisters' sons, gave me all the pictures that had been collected over the years. I have a little bit of information on Chris and Anna. If you would like to know more please let me know. I would love to know more about Lindsey. All I know about him is that his full name was Christian Lindsey Rezin Egner, that he was born 9-15-08, and that my grandfather called him Lennie. Thank you for your response!

After being contacted by a descendant of the sister of Katrina's father, (in other words, an aunt to Katrina), I know Katrina's middle name was likely in honor of that aunt. Raye Wayne Willingham was older sister to Alexander Hamilton Willingham by one year. The descendant who contacted me was named for her and is Raye Wayne as well. It isn't likely that Aunt Katrina ever knew any of her paternal aunts and uncles or ever knew the likely origin of her middle name. The living Raye Wayne's mother was first cousin to Katrina and her siblings. Many times I was told that Katrina's first name was inspired by the "little Dutch girl" in "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," by Washington Irving (1783-1859). I seem to recall being told this not only by Aunt Katrina, but by Granny Kate and my own mother. Who knows whether this was truth or fancy? From the Form SS5: Name: Katrina Raye Willingham Place of birth shown as Nashville, Davidson Co., Tennessee on 08-08-1916. At the time of application for SS, Katrina lived at 817 Jefferson, Memphis, Shelby Co., Tennessee, and was employed by F.W. Woolworth & Co. located at 1007 S. Main St. Memphis, Tennessee. Parents were listed as Alex Willingham and Katie "Lue" Jackson. The application was signed 11-30-1936. Aunt Katrina was such a contented person. A cousin and I once remarked that no matter her circumstances, Aunt Katrina made herself "content." Her smile was ever-present. Aunt Katrina was encouraging to the children in her life. Certainly, she would discipline, but she had time to listen to stories, and would sit and listen to a song we had learned, or even an idea we had. I remember once that she sat on her sofa to watch both a friend and me perform. My friend danced movements from her ballet lessons, and I sang. Katrina applauded. This individual attention was rare by busy adults in my childhood, and this impressed me so much. 10-27-1992: Obituary in "The Commercial Appeal" of Memphis, Tennessee., page A10 of the Final Edition.

In an entry for 04-04-1940, Vera wrote: "Well, we had the surprise of our life this p.m. Katrina & Leona came walking in. She is leaving her husband." Subsequent entries over the next week or more.... 04-06-1940: "Emily, Leona, Katrina, Strib and I all went to town this a.m...." Thereby still placing Katrina in the Nashville area. 04-07-1940: "Leona went home on 10:30 bus this a.m." 04-08-1940: "Kate called tonite to find out about Katrina." 04-09-1940: "I haven't heard a word from Katrina." (Indicating she remained in Springfield with Ada.) 04-10-1940: "Had a letter from Aunt Ada- Katrina left there Monday. Her husband called tonite & I told him she was gone." 04-13-1940: "Katrina went back to husband." Notes for FRANCIS TOMB WILSON: Uncle Francis was every inch a proper gentleman. His story to his nieces and stepson was that his family was from England. My time in their home was a time of acceptance and learning. We were expected to come to the dining table in a presentable manner. In the mornings, this meant faces washed, hair combed and our teeth brushed. And what child was not told to wash their hands before coming to the table? In the evenings, there were no excuses for leaving our toys, homework, or other things on the living room floor before going to the table. The table was a bit more formal than most others in our modest neighborhood. A glass of water at each plate, no matter what other beverage may be served. The proper eating implements, and even a bread and butter plate were included. We were taught to stand behind our chairs until the head, Uncle Francis, came and began to sit. This was the time for giggling and making faces at one another until Uncle Francis appeared. Although I had been taught how to behave as far as acceptable dining manners, it was my time there that taught me a different level. I was so proud when no one had to sing "mabel, mabel, sweet and able..." to me!! Uncle Francis had to travel a lot in his job. He never came home without a gift for us children.

One of my favorite memories was an evening when Uncle Francis told me to go back to the living room before eating and to pick up my homework papers. This particular evening I had actually remembered! I answered Uncle Francis that I had done so already. He feigned a surprised look, and said, "I do not believe it; if you have already done so, I will give you $10.00!" I think my adrenalin shot up several notches. Eagerly I took him to see. Now can you imagine, this formal (but kind) man leaving the table to go with me for "proof" I had picked up my papers and stacked them on the end table? Well, dear reader, we returned to the table, Uncle Francis opened his wallet and gave me a ten dollar bill. The next day, I took my cousin and my sister to the soda fountain drug store and we all had our favorite flavors of sundaes! A day later, I took my "bestest friend" for each of us to purchase our favorite loose candy at the candy counter. Made little piggies of ourselves. I honestly do not remember how the rest of the ten dollars was spent. Marriage Notes for KATRINA WILLINGHAM and FRANCIS WILSON: There were no children from this union.

Marriage Notes for LEONA WILLINGHAM and HUBERT MITCHELL: Marriage record found in Saline, Co., Arkansas. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Herbert Mitchell, father of the groom. Notes for JOSEPH WILLIAM GLENN: Bill served in five major campaigns in WWII. He was in the Hell on Wheels Tank Division under General Patton. He served in Northern Africa, Italy, France, and Germany. Like so many of our men in this war, Bill was promoted young. He left service as a Captain in the U.S. Army. I remember his being fond of watching any movie that was about WWII. Bill had an appreciation for the arts, and in particular, loved opera. One of his favorites was the operetta Carmen. Bill had a family ring that he inherited from his father that had the Glenn name engraved on a Shamrock with a leprechaun sitting on the shamrock. It was such soft gold, however that the distinctions were being worn away, and he quit wearing the ring. I do not remember the engraving inside the ring, and I have often wondered whether the ring was passed to other family members after his death.

PHILLIP GEOFFREY9 WILLINGHAM (ALEXANDER HAMILTON8, WILLIAM JEROME7, ALEXANDER H.6, ISAAC5, GARRETT4, JOHN3, JOHN2, JOHN1)1714,1715,1716 was born January 14, 1927 in Louisville, Kentucky1717, and died September 1961 in Memphis, Shelby Co., Tennessee. He married MARJORIE UNKNOWN Private. She was born Private. Notes for PHILLIP GEOFFREY WILLINGHAM: Phillip served in the US Navy in WWII. He was stationed in the Russell Islands, near Papa New Guinea. The Russells are in the southern part of the Solomon Islands. In particular, Philip was on the island of Banika, the second largest island in the group. In February 1943, the Navy conducted an operation called "Cleanslate." Not yet aware that the Japanese had given up Guadalcanal, the Allied Forces were unsure of enemy reaction. When the Marines landed supporting weapons on the Russells 21 Feb 1943, the lack of opposition from the enemy made the operation easy. Not too long afterwards, the Russells became a major Allied forward operating base and staging area. These advance points were used for the logistical support of combat operations during World War II. The base there was Naval Advance Base 60, which was in the Solomon Islands 1943-1945. I believe Philip was a cook at one time while there. Two letters from Phillip to his sister Leona were postmarked Aug 1945 and Oct 1945. The return address was N.A.B. 60 Supply, FPO San Francisco, Calif. Phillip was 18 at the time. Family stories were that Phillip suffered shell shock and as a result was institutionalized. We have since learned that was only part of the official diagnosis. Trauma induced schizophrenia was the other diagnosis. It is uncertain which trauma and at what age or when. Phillip possessed a talent for art, wood carving, and the ever-present family gift of singing. I do know he had a poetic bent in nature from his expressions that I recall. He also possessed a quick wit and sense of humor. Form SS5 application for SS# shows name as Philip G. Willingham and current address as 519 Mosby St., Memphis,Tennessee. Shows date of birth as 01-14-1927 in Louisville, Kentucky. Shows parents as Elex Willingham and Katie Jackson. Application was signed on 04-09-1943. Item 12 shows Phillip was unemployed, but he was 16 at the time of application.

A friend that Cindy met through her church, Bonnie Huges, wanted to be Cindy's La Maze "coach" and be there for Cindy at the birth of her child. It was this friend that wrote the following poem for Cindy when little David died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome only nine weeks later. David died less than an hour after being left with his babysitter, when Cynthia went to work that morning. "David" Nine weeks of joy, my little boy, I got to share with you. I reveled in your little smile and happy eyes, so blue. Your little nose and tiny mouth, Your skin so soft and sweet. How often, I did kiss your face and kiss your little feet. The smell of you still lingers on Within my broken heart.

The memory of you in my arms Will never, once, depart. The plans for you, I often dreamed, Are gone now to my sorrow; I must look now to God above For happiness tomorrow. I do not know, nor understand, Nor can I fathom, why, God chose this time and chose that day for us to say good bye! I only know, my little son, You're safe against His breast. And knowing this will soothe my hurt And give me peace and rest. You're sheltered in His loving arms, and the Angels give you care. I'm thankful for the special time He gave to us to share. For a lifetime, I'll remember, The sweetness of my boy; the memory will always linger As I remember all the joy. I look ahead to one sweet day When we will never part; I'll hold you in my arms again As now I hold you in my heart.

genes themselves verify relationships and qualify or disqualify a person from a particular study. Citing the source of every genealogical fact in the electronic gene pool was deemed unnecessary and cost prohibitive by medical researchers. Millions of individual records were created from birth, marriage and death records, obituaries, probate records, books of remembrance, family histories, genealogies, family group sheets, pedigree charts, and other sources. The records collected that did not fit a specific study and became the project's "by-products" and were schedule to be discarded. After viewing the quality of the source material used to create the gene pool and despite the absence of cited documentation, the electronic rights to the data were purchased rather than see it destroyed. Several unlinked generations of thousands of families are known to be present in the database containing 20 million names in 5 million records. This data covers the entire U.S. for a wide expanse of years. At a minimum, each record contains an individual's name, date and place of birth, and the name of his or her father. A complete record will contain the following information for an individual: Name Date and Place of Birth Date and Place Married Date and Place of Death Name of Spouse Name of Father Name of Mother Use this database as a finding tool, just as you would any other secondary source. When you find the name of an ancestor listed, confirm the facts in original sources, such as birth, marriage, and death records, church records, census enumerations, and probate records for the place where the even took place. 317.
