Wilmoth Jackson Edwards was my gr-grandfather's sister.

Most of the info I have is from an old and worn hand drawn parchment tree prepared, I believe in the 1930's. the branches and twigs are crudely drawn, and it is sometimes difficult to know if you are reading the name of a child or a spouse! Not only that, but the writing is blurred in a couple of places.

Here is a rough outline of what I do have.

DABNEY MILES JACKSON b. 09-22-1817 d. 09-14-1865
m. DOROTHY DUNN b. 10-14-1821 d. 03-11-1916

children:
MARY WILMOTH JACKSON
BILLY JACKSON
SAMUEL T JACKSON (MY GR-GRANDFATHER)
MIRANDA JACKSON
EMMA JACKSON
CLINTON JACKSON
LOV(?) JACKSON
NETTIE JACKSON

Wilmoth's branch was very unclear as to her children and their names. The only two I could distinguish were Miles and Jerome.

BILLY Jackson had DORA, CLARENCE, FRANCES, LEONA, MARY RUTH, CLAUDE and JAMES WATKINS JACKSON. wife unknown to me.

SAMUEL T JACKSON
m. ISOPHENE WHOBREY
children:
Callie, Cleve, Cassie, Ada, Mary, Willie, and Katie (my grandmother)

MIRANDA JACKSON
m ?? Thompson
children:
CARY, BERTHA, ETHBERT CLAY, STELLA

EMMA JACKSON
M. ?? Hornberger
children:
JAMES CLINTON, GEORGIA, LOIS, KARLEEN, NETTIE
Here I would like to point out that James Clinton could well be her spouse!

CLINTON JACKSON
M. ??
children:
MANIE, ELIZABETH, WILLIE, EFFIE, FRANCES

LOV and NETTIE JACKSON were indicated as being deceased; at what age, I do not know.

Again, the names of the children could be with the wrong parent. I only began my efforts with this tree last year. No way will I publish until I can document or learn the facts as they should be. Just wanted to share since I do believe we are talking about the same family.

Mr. Phillip Gowan spent many years researching the Jackson and Byrnes families. I was in touch with him about a month ago. His genealogical documents are in storage, but he has said he will send copies of what pertains to my family when he can manage to do so. I will be most happy to share what I learn.

For my end:
SAMUEL'S daughter, KATIE LOU JACKSON b. 1894
married ALEXANDER HAMILTON WILLINGHAM.
they had:
THELMA LORRAINE WILLINGHAM
KATRINA RAY WILLINGHAM
LEONA MAE WILLINGHAM (my mother)
PHILLIP GEOFFREY WILLINGHAM
ALEXANDER HAMILTON WILLINGHAM JR.
