Dunn. She married James Alsey Gammage and my grandfather Charles Beauregard Gammage was their first born son. I believe the Dunn's came from Florida. There are several Dunn's buried in the cemetery in Heath; they are way in the back. My grandfather's sister was named Gatsey Minerva Gammage and she married a Barton. Her gravestone is quite noticible when you first go into the graveyard (but was vandalized since 1980's). One of my late sisters was named after her. I'll try to go thru my information and send other info later! If you have any other information, I would love getting it. Frances Gammage Wright

If the above is correct and if Ancestry.com information is correct, then Hillary was the great-grandson of Alfred Howard PAULK, who , according to Ancestry.com's World Family Tree, was the brother of Melissa PAULK who married John LEE in 1834 in Stewart Co. Georgia. I'm extremely interested in John LEE and other LEEs of the Butler, Covington, Conecuh, Monroe, Wilcox Co. area. According to Ancestry.com, there seems to be a connection to Beasleys and others in Duplin Co. NC, the county to which I'm trying to connect my MORRIS ancestors. Additions or corrections are welcome!
